Register.com, Verisign and all other major registrars at a fraction of the cost. With an easy to use system to
update domain contact, name server and DNS record information, we are the smarter alternative.
E-mail Hosting
Email Only Hosting is a good way to create an initial Internet presence for you or your company. Start
advertising your domain name in your email address before you have a Web Site.
Web Forwarding
Web Forwarding allows you to point your domain name to any pre-existing web address. TCG America’s Web
Forwarding service allows visitors to access your Web Site at http://www.yourdomain.com. There is no need
to transfer files from one host to another or make domain configuration changes. Visitors are automatically
redirected to your Web Site address seamlessly.
Web Hosting Silver
TCG America’s Web Hosting Silver is the most popular plan and is the perfect choice for Web Sites that
require substantial Web space and bandwidth. All common scripting and database platforms are fully
supported. A terrific plan for most Web Sites! Includes 500 POP3 e-mail addresses & 350Gb of drive space.
Web Hosting Gold
TCG America’s Web Hosting Gold is a powerful upgrade to our Web Hosting Silver plan. Bandwidth and Disk
Space are increased significantly. If your website needs more power, this is the right plan for you.
Virtual Private Server
TCG America’s VPS (Virtual Private Server) solution provides a logical upgrade path for customers looking
for advanced hosting solutions on a dedicated system. Each VPS is fully segmented from other VPS servers
on the same hardware system, preventing any possible problems with resource distribution. If you require a
fully managed server solution, then a VPS is the right choice for you.

to manage your domain, e-mail accounts and website.

3. Website/Domain Management
At the Website/Domain Management screen, there should be a list of options (depending on the
webhosting and/or domain name registration package you ordered). From this screen, your entire
domain and hosting package can be customized. It includes simple basic functions such as creating
POP3 e-mail addresses and multiple FTP accounts (for your website developers). It also includes
advanced features such as modifying DNS settings or script installations. Reporting modules include
disk and bandwidth usage and traffic reports. Note: If your domain is registered with Godaddy,
Network Solutions, Register.com or another registrar, just log into your registrar account and point the
domain name server to your new webhosting account:
Nameservers
ns1.easy-cgi.com
ns2.easy-cgi.com
Creating POP3 e-mail addresses
If you’re not using an existing e-mail server, simply click on e-mail accounts to create your own POP3
e-mail addresses. You may add, modify or delete e-mail accounts from this screen. Active e-mail
accounts are listed on the left.
Include a password for each e-mail address that is created to require authentication for each user.
Strong passwords include a combination of letters, numbers and special characters.
Editing POP3 e-mail addresses
If an end user has forgotten a password, simply click on Modify and e-mail account, select the user
and enter a new password for them to use.
Alias e-mail addresses
If generic e-mail addresses are needed like sales@domain.com or info@domain.com simply go back to
the Website/Domain Management screen and click on e-mail forwards. Create the e-mail address to
be forwarded and select the e-mail address it is to be sent to.

4. Spam Control
Now that e-mail accounts have been created, it’s important to control and limit unsolicited advertising,
viruses and phishing. At the Website/Domain Management screen, click on Spam Blocking. The
Spam Blocking screen provides both Basic and Advanced Spam blocking techniques. It is
recommended that Advanced Spam and Virus Blocking be enabled.
Web Mail
Now that e-mail accounts have been created, they can be accessed over the internet at
http://mail.your-domain-name.extention from anywhere you have an internet connection. Simply type in
the address at your web browser and enter the e-mail address, password and click enter.

5. E-Mail Client
If you prefer using an e-mail client like Microsoft Outlook or Outlook Express instead of webmail, you
may configure them using your e-mail address, password, and incoming and SMTP mail addresses of
mail.your-domain-name.extention (example: mail.tcgamerica.com)
Setup the incoming mail server as POP3. Make sure the reply address information is inserted and
that the configuration settings are tested before exiting setup. Incoming messages will be
downloaded into the client using POP3. The Imap option will keep the messages on the e-mail
server, but allow viewing.
Web Reports
Web reports, from the Website / Domain Management menu, can be generated at any time, providing
website traffic analysis about your website. This information may prove to be valuable when
monitoring search engine optimization techniques and patterns of website visitor behavior. It includes
geographic analysis, search engine referrals, page count, visitor statistics and keyword analysis tools.
