I've never launched a website before, all I can think of is its a server side issue. How long ago did you launch it?

 

[Leananshee]

Are you hosting through GoDaddy or just using them as your DNS?

tim :eek

 

[Jessica]

when did you launch it?

If you are hosting the site the first thing I would check is to make sure that the "default" document is set in the control panel. And make sure there isnt a placeholder default document with a higher priority.

i used yahoo site builder, so i have no clue. but if godaddy doesn't work, yahoo is cheaper and easier!

Right, you do this from the control panel within GoDaddy, you point the Domain Name Server(DNS) to the site location. There's only a minor difference in so doing depending on whether GoDaddy is also the host, which I usually recommend against.

EWWWWW.
I actually use Godaddy for domain name purchases but I do NOT host my sites there.
Very basic, and horrid webhosting in my opinion. There are so many others out there that much better.
The one I have gives me full featured control panel and I can manage my mysql database, ftp accounts, domains, emails, mx records, and other dns settings.

Just to guess, was the prob because you set up a webhosting in godaddy but you did not link that particular domain you wanted hosted to the hosting portion of godaddy service?
Even though it's one company, you still have to goto your domain section and make sure they point to the proper dns and such.
