Typically you should enter your domain without the 'www'. We use this domain for setting your hostname. You don't need to own the domain name (e.g. you can order the server before you purchase the domain name then, later on, you can point the domain name to the IP we give you on setup).
We recommend 400MB or more memory if you are running memory intensive applications like a MySQL database or Java Servlets. You need 1GB or more if you intend to run JBoss or Liferay. As you add more memory your server will perform faster and more reliably.
