Trying to find my URL for one of my sites

[AmyR7]

Trying to find out what my url is for my bellsouth page. Could someone please tell me what shows up if you go here http://att.my.yahoo.com/
Thanks,
Amy

I see this

[AmyR7]

I guess this isn't my url then. I keep having so much trouble on some places determining what my url is. On places like myspace, geocities, angelfire, tripod, seems to be pretty easy on determining what my url is. But some places seem a bit more confusing. Facebook was one of them. Also, same on my bellsouth account. Here is where I go to login and edit things on my bellsouth one if that will help at all https://login.yahoo.com/config/login?.src=my&.done=http://att.my.yahoo.com&.intl=us&.partner=sbc

Also, here is a picture too of what is suppose to come up. Maybe that will also help.

Thanks,
Amy

It's the same thing, just a different theme.

It's the same thing, just a different theme.

Everybody's AT&T myYahoo page has the same url - namely, http://att.my.yahoo.com/ You have to sign in. The screen dump I took is the generic non-signed-in page. The page that Amy captured is the one she (only) sees after signing in.

So, then which do I give people so they can view my website? Is all I'm trying to find out.

Give them your sign in name and password I guess... Your myYahoo is your personalized Yahoo! pages. Where you can gather together stuff you like, in one place. It's not your "website".

[AmyR7]

But then they would be able to hack my account and view stuff I don't want them to view and they will be able to get into my email and all that too. Sorry, but I thought that was my website. I guess I've misunderstood what a website is all these years. I thought we are suppose to give them the url so they can view what we created. We upload our pictures, and so many other files to the site.
I login and I edit the pages, add content, edit the content.
Here is what I'm talking about, on myspace here is my url for that, http://www.myspace.com/jttandryanfan
Pages I've created on Geocities- http://www.geocities.com/jttfan20/

Also, maybe someone can explain to me, why when you go here https://login.yahoo.com/config/login?.src=my&.done=http://att.my.yahoo.com&.intl=us&.partner=sbc
Why does it say on the page there, build your own home page is one of the things it says there? If that is not my website, then why does it say this? That's what makes all this stuff really confusing at times.

That was bad advice.  You can safely ignore it.

Your myYahoo is your personalized Yahoo! pages. Where you can gather together stuff you like, in one place. It's not your "website".

Right, it's not her website, in the true sense of what it means to have a website. It's just free web space where Yahoo allows her to throw in some personal content.  Anybody with a Yahoo account could do the same.

[AmyR7]

But then why does it say right here on this page, could someone please explain this to me, why does it say, build your own home page?
I do not understand this. We are paying for the account too.

OK, so you have a premium Yahoo account, right?  Therefore, you have some features that are not available with free Yahoo accounts.  But, obviously, you would not give your username and password to other people.  You don't want them to be able to change your "website", do you?

Have you ever actually registered a domain name with a domain name registrar, so that you could have, for example, www.amy.com, not something you create under someone else's URL such as att.my.yahoo.com/ ?

[AmyR7]

See, I don't even know if everything was done correctly. My nephew and his dad who got everything setup for us when we switched from Earthlink dialup, to Bellsouth DSL. Did the wiring all through the attic, and everything the modem and router are hooked to my computer and goes out to my mom's. We did run into problems though and had to call a repairman to help the rest of the way because everything everyone told us to do wasn't the problems and it turned out to be not even anything wrong with any of our computers, the router or modem. It was these hooks in the wall not holding together right.
Here is what it says when I go here https://login.yahoo.com/config/login_verify2?.intl=us&.partner=sbc&.last=&.src=my&.done=http%3a//att.my.yahoo.com
To access AT&T Yahoo!...

I type in my email address and then my password. Then it takes me to the page and I can do anything I want there. Checking my email/webmail is one of the things on the page I do.
My mom has her own account too.

This question remains unanswered:

Have you ever actually registered a domain name with a domain name registrar,

[AmyR7]

Yes, my nephew and his dad did everything when setting all this up.

[soybean]

What is the domain name that was registered via a registrar?  What registrar was it?
