What is a Domain Name?
|
|
|
|
A
domain name is an easy to remember name for a web site.
Instead of using IP addresses, which are a unique identifier for
every computer on the Internet, Domain Names simplify finding a
website. Much like speed dial by name is easier than
remembering everyone's phone number.

Why do I have to register a domain
name?
|
|
|
|
Just
like IP addresses, each Domain Name must be unique. There are
over 1 billion different Domain Names currently in use on the
Internet and keeping track of them all is no small task. In
order to keep multiple people from claiming the same name on the
Internet, you must register your Domain Name with one of the
companies that shares this monumental task.

How long does it take to register a
Domain Name?
|
|
|
|
It
can take anywhere from 12 hours to 3 days to register a Domain Name,
assuming it isn't already taken. The registrar that we work
with currently, Internet
Domain Registrars, typically takes about 12 hours.
This is far quicker than some other registrars, which claims a
minimum or 72 hours.
