How to Remove a Parked Domain (4 Steps)


Upload a website to the domain's hosting account. The parked domain page may disappear as soon as the owner's own information is added to the domain.
Delete the parked domain page on the server. Log in to the domain's hosting account and physically delete the parked page that was provided by the web host. Access the list of files by using an FTP program, such as one provided to you by the web host, or a free one that must be downloaded, such as FileZilla. Navigate to the 'index.html' file, right-click and choose to 'Delete.' This step is often necessary if the server is automatically set to run an HTML page over other extension types. In this case, even uploading a new 'Index' page with a PHP extension will not override the parked page until it has been deleted.
Change the parked domain's settings in the domain control panel. Log in and choose to turn off the domain parking. The action will vary depending on the domain provider. Navigate to a 'Manage Domains' section and click a button to 'Remove Domain Parking' or to 'Activate Domain.'
Choose to forward the domain name to another website and domain. Forwarding or masking will activate the domain instead of placing it in parked mode. Log in to the 'Manage Domains' menu and select the option to 'Forward.' Enter the domain you would like to forward it to and save.

How to Set Up a Free Proxy (6 Steps)


Sign up for server space. If you already have a web server, you can skip this step. If you do not, you can sign up for either a free hosting account for limited bandwidth or a paid host for higher or unlimited bandwidth. Make sure you have FTP access to your hosting account so you can upload files to the server and that your server can run PHP. Either way, take note of your FTP user name and password before moving on.
Install an FTP program on your computer. Filezilla is the most popular free FTP program. It can be downloaded from Sourceforge.net. Follow the installation instructions for your computer. Make sure to download the right version for a Mac, Windows, or Linux computer.
Download PHProxy for free from Sourceforge. PHProxy is a free proxy server software package based in the PHP programming language. It is easy to install on any web server. Download the free installation package onto your desktop. You can test the software at phproxy.org.
Log in to your hosting account using Filezilla and navigate to your public_html directory. The public_html directory is where web pages are hosted on your server space. Choose one of your hosted domain folders and create a sub directory called '/proxy.' Doing so will install the program to yoursitename.com/proxy (replace yoursitename with your website's name).
Upload the entire PHProxy package into the /proxy folder on your server. Be sure to unzip the package and upload every file. Once the files are uploaded, use Filezilla to set the file permissions to 666, which will allow you to read the file from a web browser.
Go to yoursitename.com/proxy and you can use your proxy from any computer with Internet access. If you are concerned about other people using your proxy, you can change the directory name from /proxy.
