Registering a domain

Domains are a unique way to identify yourself on the Internet.  There are two parts to a domain, the name and the extension.  The name is the description of yourself or your site (for example, the name "dogfood" in dogfood.com).  The extension represents the domain category.

For example the .com extension means "commercial" .net means "network" and so on.  There are many extensions available today .biz (business), .info (resource sites), .us (American sites) to name a few.  The "www" is automatically inserted by the web server that hosts your site and is not part of the domain name.

You cannot use a domain name until you register it.  In addition, you cannot register a domain name that is owned by someone else.  The registration process is fairly simple:

Step 1:  Decide on a domain name and extension.

Step 2:  Make an order on our Order Online Page.

Step 3:  Finally proceed with the payment of the Invoice.
