Basic Overview of vistaPanel
VistaPanel is the name of the website control panel used by many free hosting services and preferred by many users to alternative control panels.
With VistaPanel you can control many, many aspects of your site including creating database, DNS records, controlling the domains on your account, view overall account statistics, manage files and databases and much more.
How can I get my DNS settings changed (MX, A, CNAME)?
Custom DNS records can be useful when you want to use third-party services for certain functions or to provide enhanced functionality to your site using your domain.
For instance, you can use Google Apps Standard Edition for e-mail and other functions for your site.
Using Subdomains
Subdomains are easy ways to expand your site into various sections or sub-sites, for instance you can have forums.example.com for your forums for easy and direct access.
Using Parked Domains
A parked domain is much like having two or more addresses for one site, for instance you could have the .net and .org versions of your domain all parked on the .com add-on domain so all three load the same website.
