I've bought a .tel domain, but I cant see it on the web.

Your .tel domain name will be live, it probably just needs activating in order that you may see the www view. We don't activate the name by default as the .tel registry require that one item of public contact data is always retained in your public .tel listing. If it isn't, you could lose your name under their terms.

Therefore, we work on the basis that you provision your name. The way to do this is very simple.

-- Log into your Domainmonster.com Control Panel
-- Select the name from your list in the right hand side under "Manage Domains"
-- Select Manage
-- Select "You're .tel contact information. Go Configure" from Menu

This will then automatically provision your name with a couple of default records listing our web address for you, so we can sure you don't breach the registry terms. From there, you can edit/add details at your leisure. Note: That from following this process to seeing the name live at www, can take up to 24 hours.
