Q: What exactly is a domain name and why do I need one?
A:
A domain name is your very unique Internet address. Registering a suitable
domain name on the Internet is the equivalent of registering a company name.
Once you have purchased your domain name (i.e. www.jeff.com) it is taken forever.
Nobody can register your domain name for a second time.
You gain a lot of respect from your visitors, and your business looks much more
serious as an Internet address like www.freehost.com/division1/users/area/beach51/yourname/index.htm.
www.yourname.com is also easy to remember, no one will remember the other address
mentioned above. Right?

Q: Where can I check if my domain name is still available?

Q: Who is paying the domain name fee?
A:
The fee must be paid by the registrant, the domain name owner. Since it's your
property, you have to pay for it.
If you decide to change web hosts, you can take that name with you (because
it's your property).
Q: When do I have to pay for my domain name?
A: Before your domain name becomes active, you must provide a credit card number or any other form of payment.
Q: How much does it cost to register a foreign domain name?
A: The fees vary from country to country. You have to research the exactly fee for yourself, if you want to have a specific top level domain.

A: You. The best way is to register through our website (.com, .net .org, biz, .us and .info). You will need a credit card to proceed. If you need a national or local domain name like *.nl, *.ca, *.br, *.mx or something else, you have to check with the appropriate registry in your country.
Q: Do you handle Foreign Domain Name Registrations?
A:
We can house any valid domain name extension. But at this time, we can't register
them.
Q: What additional info do you need for hosting my foreign domain name?
A: Nothing special, but the domain name with the top level domain like yourname.jp
Q: Who should the domain name be registered to?
A:
You should always be the domain name owner, the administrative and billing contact.
And we as the host are only the technical contact.It is important to do so,
because since you are the administrative contact of your domain name, you can
update or move your domain name anytime if you have any reason. You have full
control over your domain name. Beware
of an ISP which is registering themselves as the domain name owner or administrative
contact.
