When Visitors Enter Your Domain Name into A Web Browser, the Browser Request Uses Your Domain Name to find the Domain Name’s Associated IP Address and, Therefore, the Website. People use Domain Names Instead of IP Addresses Because it is Easier to Remember a Name Rather Than A Series of Numbers. Your Domain Name and It’s Associated IP Address are Stored in a Common Database Along with Every Other Domain and Associated IP Address that are Accessible via the Internet.

Nameservers are the Internet’s Equivalent to Phone Books. A Nameserver Maintains a Directory of Domain Names that Match Certain IP Addresses (Computers). The Information From All The Nameservers Across the Internet is Gathered in a Central Registry. Nameservers make it Possible for Visitors to Access Your Website Using a Familiar Domain Name, Instead of Having to Remember a Series of Numbers.

What Nameservers Do is use This Information to Translate Domain Names into Numerical IP Addresses – This is the Language our Computers Understand. This Process Works so Quickly that It’s almost never Noticeable. You Simply Type in a URL, the Nameserver Lets Your Browser Know Where That Website is Located, and the Desired Page Loads.

No!  You Must Register Your Domain Name Through Us to Use Our System to Register Your Nameservers for it. For Domain Names Registered Elsewhere, You Must Register Nameservers Through Your Current Registrar.

For More Information, Contact Your Current Registrar.

If You Registered Nameservers Through Our System, You Can Assign Them to Domain Names Registered Elsewhere. See  ⇒ ⇒ ⇒ Change Nameservers For My Domains ⇐ ⇐ ⇐ For More Information.

A Public Domain Name Registration With Us Lists Registrant and Other Domain Name Contact Information on the WHOIS Database Exactly as it Appears in Your Account With Us. This Listing is Standard Procedure for All REGISTRARS CERTIFIED By The INTERNET CORPORATION for ASSIGNED NAMES and NUMBERS (ICANN). You Can Change the Domain Name Contact Information if You Want.

See ⇒ ⇒ ⇒ CHANGE DOMAIN CONTACT INFORMATION ⇐ ⇐ ⇐ For Information.

To Restrict Your Personal Information From Displaying in a WHOIS Database Listing, You Can Purchase Domain Name Privacy. For More Information on This Service, See ⇒ ⇒ ⇒ ADD PRIVATE REGISTRATION ⇐ ⇐ ⇐ .

The Internet Corporation for Assigned Names and Numbers (ICANN) has a UNIFORM DOMAIN NAME DISPUTE RESOLUTION POLICY (UDRP) Which Defines how to Resolve Trademark-Based Disputes Over Domain Names. In Accordance with the UDRP, You Can Dispute a Claim to a Domain Name By Following ICANN’s Uniform Domain Name Disputes Resolution Policy.

NOTE: The UDRP Does Not Apply to Country-Code Top-Level Domains Names (ccTLDs), Except in a Few Cases Where The Local Administrator Has Decided to Adopt it. 

Unfortunately, We Are Unable to Change or Edit the Spelling of a Domain Name after You Register That Domain Name. We Register the Domain Name Exactly as You Enter The Domain Name. When That Registration Succeeds, You Are Charged, Even if The Domain Name You Entered Was Not What You Actually Intended To Type.

You Do Have The Option of Canceling the Domain Name so That it is no Longer Registered to You. Remember that Cancellation Does Not Guarantee A Refund of Any Portion of Your Registration Fee, and it is a Permanent Action. You are Welcome to Try and Purchase the Correct Domain Name if it is Available.

Usually, a Domain Name is not Available for Re-Registration as Soon as it Expires. Most Registrars Allow A Grace Period that Can Be As Short As One or Two Weeks or As Long As a Year For Registrants to Renew Expired Domain Names. The Actual Grace Period Can Be Different For Each Individual Registrar and Domain Name Extension. That is, The Grace Period For A .com Domain Name Might be Different From The Grace Period For A  .us Domain Name, Even at The Same Registrar.

After the Registrar’s Grace Period, Most Domain Names Have a Redemption Period. This Period Can Last From Two Weeks to 30 Days, and, During This Time, the Current Registrant Can Renew The Domain Name By Paying a Redemption Fee Along With The Domain Name’s Renewal Fee.

If The Current Registrant Does Not Renew or Redeem The Domain Name, it Might be Auctioned. When a Domain Name is Released to a Public Auction, You Can Participate and Possibly Capture the Domain Name By Placing a Bid On It.

If the Domain Name is Not Renewed, Redeemed, or Purchased Through an Auction, it is Returned to Its Registry. The Registry Determines When The Domain Name is Released Again For Registration. Once It’s Released, You Can Register The Domain Name Through Us.

A Second-Level Domain (SLD) Is The Portion Of The Domain Name That Is Located Immediately To The Left of The Dot and Domain Name Extension. Example 1: The SLD in coolexample.com is coolexample.

Example 2: The SLD in coolexample.co.uk Is Still coolexample. You Define The SLD When You Register a Domain Name.

A Country Code Second-Level Domain (ccSLD) Is A Domain Name Class That Many Country Code Top-Level Domain (ccTLD) Registries Implement. The (ccSLD) Portion of The Domain Name is Located Between The (ccTLD) And The SLD. Example: The (ccSLD) In coolexample.co.uk  ⇐ Is ⇒ .co

Yes!  You Can Register Domain Names Before You Find a Hosting Provider, and in Fact, You are Not Required to Host a Domain Name.
