Redirect to Google / follow up to earlier post;

Dear CryinDove: These are the instructions from Google {for redirect question you responded to, earlier} =

To setup your Subdomain record you need to be able to login to your Domain Name Host. This
is usually the place where you purchased your Domain from, but sometimes it can be the place
where your site is hosted. Once you have logged in, you will want to find the place where you
change your DNS settings. Once here, you will want to create a new CNAME record. This
creates your subdomain and forwards to a certain location on the web.

Any help you can give me in this regard will be greatly appreciated.

Hi there, here is your original post:

"Can I add a redirect link to my Wetpaint site, so that when someone sees me on Googles new mobile service, it will redirect them to my Wetpaint site? "

I read that to be, being able to get to your wiki via Google's Mobile service. I do not know much about that service except you can download Google' browser to you phone. Assuming it is like any other browser, you should only need to do is to add your wiki's URL to Google. And no matter if a user is using a computer.ipad, or phone, the link on Google should allow them to get to your wiki.

The information that Google supplied is on how to setup a custom domain name away from the yoursitename.wetpaint.com to a www.yoursitename.com.

I think both Google and myself keyed on the word "redirect" as to its proper use of using one address to redirect the user to another address.

If I am correct, you want the address of your wiki to be available on Google search. To accomplish adding your wiki to Google got to this page on Google and add your wikis address there.

Hi. Thanks. No, it's not Google Search ---- it is the NEW Google mobile <or> Go Mo Google that I am trying to link or redirect. The kickoff in Mobile was with "duda mobile" dudamobile.com. I am not that computer savvy, so laymen's terms would be good. If you could do what is necessary so my posts are not anonymous [fmcalabamacontractor.wetpaint.com] ( foreclosuremakeover ), it will let you know I am in Mobile, Alabama and not a spammer from somewhere else. I appreciate your help. I will work with info you have sent. Kenny McGee FMC Mobile - Foreclosure Makeover Company.
