Temporary test URL before domain transfer

What is the URL to use to test our site before we change the nameservers to point to our new economy windows hosting account? Our website’s domain is currently hosted somewhere else and we are transferring the website hosting to godaddy.

For example, lets say our IP is 123.456.123.456. We should be able to do http://123.456.123.456/welcome.html or probably add our acct folder in there somewhere. But

Anybody get this to work?

@EconomyHosted,

If your account is setup with a shared IP address, the IP will not work. You can use the Preview DNS feature to test your site before switching nameservers. See:
