  1. Do some research before you run out and cancel your hosting account. Sometimes, if you just have a domain name registered, you are not able to add cname records.

     

    I don't know about other domain registrars, but GoDaddy is definitely setup this way. The TotalDNS feature, which allows you to add cname records, is only available through their hosting menu. I recently switched to DreamHost as my hosting provider (but still have GoDaddy as my domain registrar), and now I have to configure the cname information at DreamHost.

     

    The only thing I can still do at GoDaddy is configure domain forwarding, which, as discussed above, does not retain your URL once you get forwarded to smugmug.

     

    Other domain registrars may be more flexible, so just be sure to check with yours first.
