Hi all,
Planning on getting a VPS to run the server on... Came here seeking advice.
For most VPSs, I am asked to enter a domain name. The problem is that I already have a website that is hosted elsewhere. If I enter my domain, it will change the record and my website will cease to function. What do I do? Are there hosts out there that don't ask for domains?
Sinc.

(PS. don't turn this into a host comparison thread, I'm looking for help, not a fight.)

1) Typing in a domain name won't change your records or make any affects to your current website.
2) I find domVPS.com pretty good.
hostname or domain name is not needed.
just try to put there your name,or something like that.

Have like VPS.domain.com pointing to your VPS. Most of the time you need a fully qualified domain for the hostname.

I use Semoweb.com I've choosen the most expensive VPS which is still only 9$
They have awesome helpdesk they respond within 1 workday and you got 1 GB Burstable Ram (Extra boost if your server is loaded over your normal ram, taken from other servers who got some left.)
I got 1.5 TB Bandwidth per month.
I do everything with it BUT I got to give you advice, these servers are running on Linux Operating Systems so that means it doesn't got a Desktop so if you buy this one you should read some Wikipedia's about Linux or CentOS or Debian or anything else.
But they are STABLE and online 24/7 and you have full control over them.
They are EXELENT.
BTW if you want to help me please PM me and I will give you a link where you can sign up (Affiliates) and every purchase makes my hosting a little lighter (I will not post it here, I already recieved a warning for Adf.ly and such).
