 Episcopal Church Web Hosting > Services

To Get Started:

  1. Register your domain with an accredited registrar (see below). Set the name servers to: ns1.ecwh.org and ns2.ecwh.org.
  2. Setup an account with us by sending an e-mail request with your new domain name to New Member Registration. In your email, please provide the address and telephone number of the organization, and the contact email address.
  3. Usually within 24-48 hours, you will be emailed a password to sign in. Please do so immediately and change the password using the recommended guidelines.
  4. At this point, your website is ready for you to upload pages to. You can use FTP or our cpanel file manager facility to do so.

Domain Name Registration


ECWH does not provide Domain Name Registration Services. Domain name registration is a separate service and does not need to be done through your web host provider. ECWH does not require that you use any particular domain registrar in order to use our services. However, we recommend registration through Dragon Network's regest.com registration service.

Dragon Networks (dragon.com) is currently donating the host for ECWH. They are an Anglican owned and operated web hosting service. They also provide domain name registration for ECWH clients at a very reasonable rate. Most conveniently, if you have all of your web services through Dragon Networks it makes it easier to keep track of your accounts, easier for us to help you if you have trouble, and easier for those who might come after you and need to recover account information.

If your domain name is currently registered with a more expensive registrar, you should consider transfering your domain to the Dragon Networks service and take advantage of the discounted rate for future unpaid years. Contact Sally@Dragon.com for more information.
