Web Help Needed!

Hi.
Here's the story.

I was looking for a domain registering / hosting site / package.

I registered and paid for a .com domain on "www.mydomain.com"
and then paid for the "Sitebuilder hosting" plan.

these are all paid for, but the original .com url that I registered still comes up with cannot be found error.

The Sitebuilder facility was a load of nonsense, providing "templates" that you add your own txt to, then publish to the web.
however, it does'nt publish to the actual .com url, it goes to this extended namezero url etc.

I'm also confused with the following:

" Unless otherwise indicated, you must use:
NS1.MYDOMAIN.COM, NS2.MYDOMAIN.COM,
NS3.MYDOMAIN.COM, NS4.MYDOMAIN.COM
name servers for these services to function properly. "

.
What I'm needing to know is, can I Transfer a geocities website to MyDomain.com ?

Or...

Can you Transfer the .com domain (currently with mydomain.com) over to Geocities ?

or...
Is there any better UK domain hosting services ( with domain name transfer )
and a basic "File Manager" ( similar in set up to Geocities / 50Megs ones ) that I can upload the website to...


Thanks

managed to figure it out, got a confirmation mail from them, saying payment has been received, and so on, and the file manager is meant to be under a sub-domain at name-zero and not like www.***.com/index.html etc etc, so it uploads itself, without having to publish a pre-made site.
All is good.
will tell ya the url of the site once it's finished, maybe get some feedback on it
