How Domain Names Actually Work

Before registering a domain name, we will see how domain names work. An example of a unique domain name would be webtechsonline.com. When you register a domain name, it is added to a large database of domain names. In this database, your domain name, contact information, hosting providers name server information, etc. is stored. When a visitor enters your domain name in a browser, it is referenced in this database and then directed to your hosting provider’s domain name servers (DNS). The DNS server then directs your request to the computer that contains your site.

To Be or Not to Be

The first step, is to determine whether you want a unique domain name for your site. We recommend that all business sites have a unique domain name. This gives your site a professional look, at a small expense. When choosing a domain name, you want the domain name to reflect your site. Before you register your domain name, come up with several variations to your original name. Most likely, the domain you want is taken.
A domain name may contain letters, numbers and the dash (-) symbol. Popular domain names end in either .com, .net, .org, .edu or .gov. Here is a chart to determine which suffix is right for your site:

Once you register your domain name, it should be updated to the database in about 24-48hrs.

Names have a 2 year minimum registration at this moment.

  • All prices are in US dollars and are the complete fee to register a domain name.
  • All TLDs have a 1 year minimum registration unless mentioned.
  • .TV has a category of domain names called "Premium Names" which have a different pricing structure. We currently do not register these names.
  • The registry stipulates that domain name transfers are the same as new one-year name registrations, so we do too. Transfers add to the time remaining on the registration at the other registrar, and do not start the clock over.
  • Exception: The Registry will not add a year if the domain is transferred within the first 45 days of the extended/renewed year.
  • The price includes a registration in the according registries, name hosting in our name servers.
