Greetings all :)

Just had a question. I am in the middle of creating a site for a Non profit orginization.

We will be registering a domain name to point to the smugmug hosted site.

My question is... can I register the .com, .net, as well as .org and have all 3 of them point to the same site?

I only see a place to register one domain name in my control panel.

Thanks in advance,

Steven

We support one CNAME Alias to your SmugMug account.

Thanks Andy...

So i'm trying to figure this out in my head... I understand what you're saying... but I need to find a way to make this work... without paying for additional hosting....

anyone got any ideas?

It's not quite what you want but you can forward all the other domains to your one smugmug domain.

yeah... I was playing with that idea, but wasn't sure on the latency....

it shouldn't be too long... hmmm...

thanks for the idea,

I do this now and I don't really thing latency is anything to worry about.

Try these:

http://www.scottwalterphotography.com/
http://www.walterphotography.com/
http://www.scottwalterphoto.com/

The first two are permanently forwarded to the third via GoDaddy and the third is CNAME'd to smugmug as normal. I cannot detect any slowness.
