Ok I put together a quick website just to put something up. I registered through godaddy.com and host it with mobile me. How do I make it stay www.mydomain.com instead of web.me.com/user and host my website with mobile me.
 
Anybody have any ideas?

Go to your domain settings on godaddy.com.

Click on Total DNS Control link
edit the cname for "www" plug in web.me.com
I think you may have to park your domain as well but I can't remember.

Then give it some time and your domain should be forwarded to your mobileme page.

I did that and it has my site up, but when I type in www.mydomain.com it displays www.mydomain.com for a second. Then it changes and displays web.me.com/myaccount. I would like to host on mobile me since it has that feature I just want to host it there but still have it display www.mydomain.com
Is that possible? Am I misunderstanding you?

Never mind I understand what I did. I had it set for 24hrs and went back and just changed it to update in 30 minutes. Thanks for your help. Problem solved.
