Frequently Asked Questions
Here are the answers to questions that
are often asked about OnlineGroups.Net.
Can I have my site at my own url?
Yes, all OnlineGroups.Net sites are at a url
(web address) that you choose. Free sites use
a "subdomain" of onlinegroups.net, such as
yoursite.onlinegroups.net.
Premium sites can have a
custom domain which
can be any domain that you have control of.
How can people share files using OnlineGroups.Net?
All file attachments emailed to online groups are
automatically uploaded to the group. A link to the file,
rather than the file itself is sent out in the emails, and
the file appears in the Topic view, online. Files can
also be uploaded when adding to a Topic via the web.
Can my group members chat online?
Yes, every online group allows the members of the group
to chat (hold online an conversation in real time), as
long as they are logged in. To use this, just arrange
a time to chat, and then visit "Chat" in the side menu
of your group.
How do I start a Premium Site?
To start a Premium Site, first start a Free Site.
You will be able to upgrade
the site later.
