... my question is, if I now have a free site and decide to get a DOMAIN package, will all of my site pages still have the SAME ADDRESSES as they are now? Or will they have NEW ADDRESSES? Or BOTH?

for instance, I am a member of some webrings and if my address for the page they are on CHANGES (only with no directing to original addresses), then they would not work... and info that folks already have for our site would not work...

http://www.ourchurch.com/member/n/NarrowPathFarm and the link page is on
http://www.ourchurch.com/view/?pageID=182176

LOTS OF WORK TO DO! Very Happy

Hi Count-your-blessings,

If you get a Domain package your old address (www.ourchurch.com/members/.....) will still point to your website as well. So the web rings and other folks who already have the original address will still be able to use it as well.

it? (the original and the new www."mychosendomain".com) Or will the "my chosendomail" just be for the homepage?

I imagine my question sounds clear as mud... I apologize.

http://www.ourchurch.com/member/n/NarrowPathFarm (original home url)
http://www."mychosendomain".com (new home url)

http://www.ourchurch.com/view/?pageID=182176 (original LINKS url)
http://www."mychosendomain".com/links (new LINKS url)

(if I wanted to send someone the url for my LINK page, for example -after getting the domain package- what *could I send?)

Hi Count-your-blessings,

All the pages will have both the original address and the new address with your chosen domain name.

Your Examples:
Example 1:
http://www.ourchurch.com/member/n/NarrowPathFarm (original home url)
http://www."mychosendomain".com (new home url)

Correct, both addresses will take you to your homepage.

Example 2:
http://www.ourchurch.com/view/?pageID=182176 (original LINKS url)
http://www."mychosendomain".com/links (new LINKS url)

Close. The orginal address will still take people to your links page, however, the new address will not be http://www."mychosendomain".com/links, but rather http://www."mychosendomain".com/view/?pageID=182176

So the way it would be is:

http://www.ourchurch.com/view/?pageID=182176 (original LINKS url)
http://www."mychosendomain".com/view/?pageID=182176 (new LINKS url)

and both addresses would point to the same links page.

I hope this is a little clearer. Let me know if you have any other questions.
