So you received the email with confirmation that you are now hosted. What is the next step to take so this can be activated and give you the website of your dreams.
(This was made for trap17 members so in the places where it say trap17, exchange it for astahost)
Follow me down this road and I'll try to take you down the process step by step and show you how to create a new hosting account.

Step 1:

This is when you click the link in the email (or copy paste it into your browser)
This is what you should see: (click thumbnail to view larger image, will open in new window)

The option you are going to use is #1 "Create a Hosting Account"

Step 2:

In step 2 there are several fields you need to fill in correctly.

1. This is where you type your Forum Username.
2. This where you type your Forum Password.
   
   
   
   
   
3. Your desired subdomain name goes here or domain name if you own one. I'm using testuser for this examle and you need to change that to your own (sub) domain name. So I type: testuser and I'm creating a subdomain called testuser. In field #3 I type "testuser.astahost.com" (without the " " semicolons)
   
   
   
   
   
   When you exit the field you will get a confirmation, click "OK"
   
   
   
   
   
4. Fill in username and password in the next section. This can be the same as your username for the forums (Can NOT contain any special characters and have to be 8 or less characters long).
5. Now you create your password for cPanel. You can use same as for the forums but I recommend a different one in case that way it's not as easy for others to guess it.
6. Check every fied and confirm that the data is correct. When satisfied that it's all correct and to your liking click the "Submit" button.
   
   
   

Step 3:

• The next confirmation is the server checking to see if this is a "subdomain" or a "domain" name. click "OK" to continue
  
  
  
  
  
• This is the last chance to cancel the creation and start all over.
  
  
  

This is where most users fail, if you are not patient and you hit refresh or the "Back" button, you may have to start all over again

xThis is the confirmation screen when succressful.
