And in the end, double check that the only thing in your 'shopping cart' is the one domain name you wanted, one order of "Website Tonight - 5 page website" and nothing else (no additional hosting needed at this point).

And in the end, double check that the only thing in your 'shopping cart' is the one domain name you wanted, Private Listing (if you ordered that) and nothing else. Then do some research and find a provider that offers hosting. You can get your Domain Name here and get your hosting there. No problem at all. All you need to do, after you choosing the host, is log into your account here and switch the Name Servers to point to their servers. The company you choose for your hosting should be able to explain to you how to do that.
