Welcome the Lunarpages Quicksite hosting plan. The idea and inspiration behind this hosting plan is to get your web site up and running in three easy steps. For those of you who may not be experience in the world of web hosting or of being a webmaster, I hope this guide will help you get started and get the most out of your LPQuicksite hosting plan.

New Account Information

Once your order has been verified and activated, you will receive what we consider to be the "welcome e-mail" with all of your account login information, and basic details about your LPQuicksite hosting plan. Make sure that you save this e-mail, because as you become familiar with the hosting account you purchased, you may need to go back and reference it for more information.

The Basics of Your LPQuicksite Account

Once you start diving into the welcome e-mail, you should notice that you have access to your own web hosting control panel too. This acts as the main access point to your account. Our control panel walkthrough should help you become more familiar with all the tools you have access to from there.

Another one of the first steps you might want to take is to create an e-mail account for yourself. You can create an e-mail account from the control panel or from the LPQuicksite design tool. The LPQuicksite design tool also gives you quick and easy access to all of your mail settings. Just go to the "Mail" tab.

To edit your site's settings, (such as site name, description, and keywords) be sure to check out your site settings from within the LPQuicksite design tool.

Choose Your Template and Customize Your Look and Feel

Once you have customized and learned the basics of the back end of your hosting plan, it is time to start designing your web site. We currently have hundreds of templates to choose from, and each can be customized to fit your needs.

Diving a little deeper into the design process, you may also change the order of your menus and navigation on your template. Other popular customization include:

Content Creation

Now that you know the basic about the hosting account, and you know how to pick and customize your template, let us talk about content creation. This is where your web site begins to come to life with your own personal content. The first thing you will want to do is to learn how to manage your LPQuicksite pages. Along with your basic web page editing, we have three other types of content creation tools:
