heya guys, im planning to purchase ragnarok server from asura hosting, but when i registered its require an existed domain or sub-domain. im pretty hate to use sub domain so i manage to get my own domain. my question is can i use wordpress as hosting for domain?

You mean those free blog wordpress hosted? Like abc.wordpress.com? No.

You mean those .com you purchased from Wordpress? If they provide FTP and MySQL then yes.

Well,

If you intend to have wordpress.com as your webpage or something, I dont think its a problem. Just you can't connect your MySQL thing so there will be no Control Panel, Forum, etc.

If you already bought a domain, you can use it to Asura Hosting's VPS

Btw, the "require an existed domain or sub-domain" in Asura Hosting billing can be changed later, so take your time.

Goodluck!

Just like @darristan said, if they provide ftp and mysql. it is possible.

but if you want your purchased domain direct to your RO Server / VPS IP

You must use the 'Advanced DNS Settings' in your domain provider's control panel and set an A-record to your VPS IP.

You can purchase a domain here.

http://godaddy.com/

http://www.namecheap.com/

You can use Wordpress on your VPS, just download the wordpress zip file and extract it in your www folder...Asurahosting have a webserver which is the nginx webserver. it just like a localhost webserver.

ok tq guys its help me alot

btw for domain can i use co.cc?

[Bin4ry]

You can use co.cc redirect URL or config your VPS's name server to the co.cc.

[agentbogz]

Yes u can use co.cc just put an "A Record" to your Domain control panel.

err wat u mean by [an "A Record"]??

err wat u mean by [an "A Record"]??

When you register domain with .co.cc, usually theres place like DNS Management/Control Panel, all you need to do is set "A record" so your domain will be forward to the VPS.

Hope it help.
