    Web Forwarding Vs Binding ???

    I've just registered a domain name (.com) and have signed up for some free hosting somewhere else on the net.

    My question is: Is it better to use web forwarding to redirect (or use frames) to direct a user to my hosting address or to bind the DNS??

    Have i got this right, is that the correct thing to do with DNS ? and if so any ideas on how i could bind my domain to my free host space ?


    Thanks

    If you redirect them with either a javascript or meta tag it will show your free hosted site address and not your registered address. Unless you use frames or iframes of course. That would be the way to go. Personally I would only use the free hosting for images and keep everything important on the main service.

    Your domaine name must be bind to a IP, it's better to bind to your free hosting web site IP.
