How long does it take to get a domain name and set up a webhosting account?
Domain name verification is almost instantaneous. Hosting accounts are generally set up the same day of purchase. The domain name must then be pointed toward the web hosting servers. Then it can take from 30 minutes to 72 hours for a domain name to resolve to the web hosting servers. Once this occurs, you will be able to see the Social Hostess temporary home page at your new site by typing your new domain name into any web browser such as Internet Explorer, Netscape, Firefox, Opera, etc. and pressing “enter” on your keyboard. Most names resolve within the first hour.
