| The Domain Name Registration Process
The domain name registration process has been undergoing a number of changes since the breakup
of the Network Solutions Inc. (NSI) monopoly. Now many alternative Domain Registrars
have evolved with more sophisticated systems for altering the registration information and
better pricing options. Today you are no longer limited to just the top three (.com,
.net, .org) as the new Top Level Domain (TLD)
extensions are all available in some form or another. Click the "details" link for the
latest news about each TLD below. Also many other country domain names have become full TLD's
and are now available for anyone to use (.cc, .tv, etc.). These
International Domain Name fees
are set by each country and are different for each.
The Domain Name Search
Process & Rules
InterNIC reportedly handles some 15,000 registrations everyday. This
means that domain names are getting scarce and if you want yours to even resemble something
desirable, you should reserve it now. The new TLDs (.biz, .info, .name, .pro, .us,
etc.) have offered some relief from the overcrowding and many names are still available using
the different extensions. Click on the "details" link next to each TLD extension to see
the latest changes and rules for Top Level Domain Names.
We offer free domain parking so you can reserve any domain name you want
even before opening a hosting account with
us. Here are some rules to keep in mind when searching for a domain name:
-
Names can be up to 67
characters long.
-
You cannot
contain spaces or other punctuation, it may
only contain letters, numbers, or dashes ("-").
-
You cannot use capital or
upper case characters.
-
You cannot begin or end with
a dash.
-
You cannot have more than 67
characters, including the dot and extension name used at the end.
