What are Domains

One of the essentials you demand so as to possess an online portal is a domain. This is the address your visitors will write in their web browsers to get to your site and it is among the things they will distinguish you by. Therefore you should opt for a domain that is appropriate and explanatory, but it should also be easy to remember.

Registries - The Real Domain Providers

Each domain extension, or TLD (Top-Level Domain), is operated by a Registry. This is the top-level organization that controls all domain registrations and prescribes the requirements for each specific Top-Level Domain. A number of domain name Registrars function under the Registry. These are approved suppliers that offer the actual domain registration service, handle any additional registration rules and charge the end clients.

Generic or Country Code Top-Level Domain Names?

When selecting a domain name, you should ponder on its top-level domain name. Whether it will be a generic Top-Level Domain such as .com, .info, .name, or a country code top-level domain name like .us, .fr or .co.nz, is determined by the target audience and on the goal of your web portal, but also on your choice, so when you are seeking a registrar where you can register your domain name, make sure that you opt for one with a huge collection of domain name extensions. Thus, you can be positive that you will make the very best choice and if you register several domain names for your private or company web page, they all will be in one single location, not scattered across several individual domain registrars.

Registrants - The Legitimate Domain Owners

When you register a domain, you become the domain Registrant, or its proprietor. You can indicate another person as the Administrative or Technical Contact for the domain name if somebody else attends to your site, which will permit you to deal exclusively with things regarding the proprietorship or specific payment questions.

Domain Registration Periods: 1 to 10 Yrs

The majority of domains are registered for a term of 1 to 10 yrs, but certain particular TLDs can be registered for at least two years, or for no more than five, for example. You can also transfer your domain name between various registrars and again, different Top-Level Domains have different stipulations for that. Before you register your domain, it is worthwhile to inspect what specific prerequisites there are for the particular Top-Level Domain that you've settled on. A relevant example is the domain names table at our website where you can have a look at quite a large collection of supported domain extensions and exhaustive information as regards the transfer and pre-registration stipulations entailed, as well as the registration term for some of the more characteristic TLDs.

Redemption Grace Periods (RGP): 30 to 45 Days

Always make certain to become informed about the renewal process requirements before your domain registration runs out. Specific domain names cannot be renewed after they run out, and for others you have one mo. after the expiration date to renew them. The general rule is that when a domain runs out, it is either deleted after a specific interval, or the domain registration company obtains possession of the domain in case that you, the possessor, have not indicated any interest in renewing it. For that reason you should always observe the expiry date of your domains or you will jeopardize forfeiting them. For specific TLDs like .com or .net, you have 30 days after the expiration date, whereas with others, such as .eu - you lose possession of the domain the moment it expires and you need to wait 30 to 45 days before you can register it again.
