A domain extension is a suffix that succeeds your domain – like a .com.au, or .com.

There are various top-level domains (TLD) to choose from, with the most popular ones being .com, .net, .info, .biz, and .edu.

An important factor to consider when choosing a domain extension is how it matches your website’s purpose. So, if you’re running a commercial site, for example, you can opt for a .com. If you’re planning to launch a website for your non-profit, go for a .org.

There are also over 200 country code TLDs to choose from. Let’s say you are a business operating in Australia, you’d want to consider getting a .au domain extension to tell clients that you operate locally.

For most cases, you should be able to use your domain within 24 hours after registration. You’ll receive a confirmation email from us if your registration is successful. From here, update your DNS settings for your website and emails to work.

If you encounter an error with the registration, we’ll email you the details of the issue and how to resolve it.

It’s important to note that some domains take longer to process. A separate entity – known as a domain name registry (or simply “registry”) – manages domains. So, each registry imposes different sets of requirements. Of course, our team will make sure to update you registration status regularly.

You can register a domain for a term mandated by its respective registry. The options on how long you can use the domain name will show before checkout.

Global Domain Extension (also called gTLD) will let you register a minimum term of 1 year and a maximum of 10 years. Country Code Domain Extensions (also called ccTLD) have varying terms set by its registries. You may check the domain terms and conditions for more details.

Yes, you can host your website or email with a separate provider.

However, there are several reasons why you should keep them in one place. For one, you don’t need different accounts to manage your domain and hosting. And you can always contact a single provider for assistance.

You can use the Web Forward feature if you have Premium DNS to set up a domain redirect. In just a few clicks, you should be able to successfully forward your domain.

Let's try using the example above – chrisneakers.com.au and chrissneakers.com. Say, for example, your existing website name is chrisneakers.com.au. Since chrissneakers.com is also active, you can create a Web Forward in the DNS settings of chrisneakers.com.au to forward the traffic to chrisneakers.com.au.

Whenever a Web Forward is successful, it will take 2-4 hours to start working.

We mentioned earlier that you can always register variations of your chosen domain.

In the digital age, having a domain name is crucial for establishing an online presence. From building a website to creating a professional email address, a domain name plays a vital role in branding and credibility. In this article, we will delve deeper into the world of domain names, covering everything from what they are to how to register, renew, and even get a free domain name.

A domain name is essentially the address of your website on the internet, similar to a street address for a physical building. Each website, server, or device connected to the internet has an IP address, a complex string of numbers and letters. To make it easier for users to access websites, domain names provide a human-friendly alternative to these IP addresses. 

When you type a domain name like www.webtriffic.com into your browser, the domain name system (DNS) translates it into the corresponding IP address, allowing you to reach the desired website.

Having your own domain name is essential for establishing credibility and professionalism online. With a domain name, you can build a website for your business or create a branded email address that adds a level of professionalism to your communications. WEBTRIFFIC.COM is a trusted registrar that can help you find the perfect domain name to suit your needs, with a user-friendly search tool to check availability and dedicated customer support to guide you through the process.

To check if a domain name is available, simply type it into a search bar like the one provided by WEBTRIFFIC.COM. The tool will immediately inform you if the domain is available or if it has already been registered by someone else. If the domain is taken, you can use the WHOIS Lookup tool to find the owner's contact details and inquire about purchasing or negotiating for the domain. WEBTRIFFIC.COM also offers services like Domain Broker and Domain Backorder to help you secure the domain you want.

Domain name registration involves finding a web address, such as WEBTRIFFIC.COM, and signing up to use it. While you technically don't own the domain, registering it gives you the right to use it as long as you continue paying the annual registration fee. If you fail to renew your registration, the domain becomes available for others to register. With WEBTRIFFIC.COM, you have the option to set up auto-renewal to prevent accidental expiration and ensure your website remains active.

The duration of domain name registration can vary depending on the domain extension you choose, ranging from one to ten years. Extensions like .au and .nl may have shorter registration periods, so it's essential to check the terms when registering your domain. Renewing your domain with WEBTRIFFIC.COM is a simple process, allowing you to manually renew or set up auto-renewal to keep your website name registered to you.

By purchasing a startup package hosting or utilizing website development services with WEBTRIFFIC.COM, you automatically qualify for a free domain name.

By taking advantage of this offer, you can kickstart your online journey with a professionally branded domain name.

When selecting a domain name, consider using keywords related to your business, keeping it short and memorable, and avoiding complex spellings. Ensure it reflects your brand and is easy to type and pronounce.

Domain name privacy protection hides your personal contact information from the public WHOIS database, reducing spam and protecting your privacy. This service is often included with your domain registration.
