A domain name is the address, or URL, of your website. For example, webhostingso.com’ is a domain name. Every domain name is unique across the entire planet and are assigned to whomever registers them on a first-come first-serve basis. You can register domain names followed by many extensions, such as .com, .net, .org, .info and more through DreamHost
There are many good reasons to register your own unique domain name, including:
-Permanent address for your site and email, as long as you keep the domain registered and have an active web hosting and email service linked to the domain.
-A unique domain name looks much more professional than a URL such as ‘yoursite.example.com’.
-Easier for people to remember than ‘yoursite.example.com’.
-Registering a new domain name in your panel is simple and only takes a few minutes.
-If you purchase a shared hosting plan through DreamHost, you receive one free credit that you can use on specific domains. This is for the first year of hosting. You can read more about this on the Free Registration article.
-Once your domain name is reserved, you own that domain name until you choose to let it expire. If you don’t reserve the domain name you want, someone else can reserve it before you get the opportunity.
Login to your account using the link above. Click "DomainCentral." Choose the domains you would like to renew and follow the directions. Domain renewal rates will be available through your control panel.
There are several steps after your domain expires to safeguard you from losing any domains you want to keep.
-Approximately 30 days prior to the domain expiration date, we begin sending reminders to you by email to the email address you listed with us. You will receive at least two reminders prior to the expiration date and one reminder within five days after expiration.
-If we are unable to secure payment on or before the domain renewal date, your domain name will expire.
-As early as one day after expiration, your domain name will be deactivated and replaced with a parking page indicating the domain name has expired, and other services you have associated with the domain name may no longer function.
-As early as 30 day after expiration, your domain name may be purchased by a third party. If a third party purchases the domain name during this time, the domain name will not be available for you to renew.
-If the domain name has not been renewed by you or purchased by a third party, an expired domain name enters the registry redemption period (as defined by each registry) approximately 45 days following expiration. If a third party purchases the domain name prior to the registry redemption period, the domain name will not enter redemption and will not be available for you to renew. We reserve the right to charge you a redemption fee of $99.95 (in additional to the renewal fee) in the event you are able to renew your domain name during this period.
-If the domain name completes the registry redemption period, the registry may hold the domain name for a period of five days before releasing it again for general registration.
As long as your domain is registered to your name, all the required fees are paid and it's not in breach of any law, trademark or copyright, nobody else can either use it or take it without your consent. As an added security measure, your domain will be automatically locked so that it cannot be transferred to another person or registrar without identification documents from you. It will be unlocked only when you choose to use your own DNS servers or requested by you.
Sorry, no. Once the registration process has been initiated it can't be canceled, so choose your domain wisely. Please remember to double-check and verify that you have typed in your domain name correctly in the order form.
You will realize that the expense for domain name registration and support is minor compared to the marketing expense to promote and establish your domain name in the marketplace. The last thing you want to happen is to have someone else (your competitor in most cases) benefit from your efforts in establishing your name. You will see competitors registering names close to yours, trying to benefit from typo mistakes your visitors may make. For example, someone tried registering yahho.com in order to piggyback on the popular yahoo.com. We strongly recommend that you register all 3 domain extensions for your business, service or products.
Although you can register your domain name for a minimum of 1 year, we would recommend that you register it for a longer period than that. Thousands of individuals, companies and organizations are losing their domain names due to reasons such as outdated contact information, missed renewal payments, hijacking, employee sabotage, and even computer or clerical errors. This resulted in web sites and e-mail being disrupted for weeks. If your domain name is important to you or you want to avoid any inconvenience of losing your domain, register it for as long as you can afford.
No. You have to order a web hosting package with your domain name. You may check our hosting plans at https://www.webhostingso.com/web-hosting-plans/ for more information if you are interested in a web hosting service.
