Answers:
How many domains can I host with NightSky?
You can host as many domains as you wish. There is no charge for adding a domain, beyond any registration fee. If you already own your domain, simply transfer it to us for free!
How do I setup a new domain?
Simply log into our Account Manager at http://www.NightSkySupport.com/am/ and then select "Add a domain" from the left side menu. If you still need to register your domain, and wish for us to do it, select the appropriate box, and we will do it!
How long does it take to setup a domain?
Most domains are up and running within 24 hours. This is beyond our control, as the top-level DNS servers must be notified of a new domain and update their databases.
If I register a domain on my own, what DNS Server settings do I use?
You need to login into your registrar's website and enter the following information:

ns1.nightskyhosting.com --> 67.43.171.162
ns2.nightskyhosting.com --> 67.43.171.163
ns3.nightskyhosting.com --> 64.81.39.166
