Yes you can. Exact IT web hosting supports all CMS applications including WordPress. If you need help setting it up, please Contact us for assistance.

No, our hosting provider discontinued support for FrontPage Extensions in mid 2013.

There are two options to achieve this:

1. Forward email addressed to email@mydomain.com.au to youraddress@currentemailaddress.com.au using the free “Domain Manager” feature or;
2. Setup web hosting and get up to 60 POP email accounts (dependant on hosting package)

Option 1 is the simplest and just requires a destination email address (eg – your current Gmail account).

Option 2 provides full email functionality including dedicated webmail, Microsoft Outlook support and spam/virus filtering.

Once you have your domain registered, the next step is to setup email forwarding, and/or web hosting.

A website consists of 3 components:

1. Domain Name (eg. exactit.com.au)
2. Web Hosting (disk space on an Internet server to house your website)
3. Website Content (the website that your visitors see)

Before you put a website online, it is essential that you have a domain name and web hosting.

Exact IT can provide all 3 services, either individually, or as part of a managed package.

If you don’t require a website, and just want to use your domain for email – you need to setup our free “Domain Manager” that allows you to forward email from your domain to your choice of destination email addresses.
