If you've gotten your website up and running, make sure to try to access it both with and without typing "www." before the domain name. Sometimes your host manager will automatically "forward" traffic but it's unlikely since you are the one deciding which version your website is actually located at.
We located our website at the www.domain.com, for example. When we typed in domain.com, the same old advertisements for our web host were still coming up instead of our website, even though our site would show up at www.domain.com. So, what you'll need to do is go to your control/settings on your hosting access page. Look for something that mentions website forwarding. Here, you should be able to find an option to forward either your www.domain.com to the domain.com site you have set up, or viceversa. Additionally, you can redirect any site under your control to another page of your domain (and I'm fairly certain you can re-direct it to another website entirely, in the case that you wanted to buy a new domain name, for example, and forward your traffic from old customers to your new site, though I haven't tried).
