How
do I register a domain name? |
|
A
provision, requesting to check the availability of domain
names is given on this website. In either case you would
like to do it on your own, please visit Register.com to
find the appropriate domain name. Afterwards, you simply
have to send us a request along with your contact details
as per the form provided and we will have it registered
for you. The domain name can be booked for a minimum time
period of 1 yrs, and has to be renewed every year to continue
using the same identity on the internet. |

|
Do
I have to change my domain if I get a new host? |
|
No.
By changing the nameserver of your site you can change
the host. The only thing is that the domain has to be
registered in your name (as it should be). |

What
is Domain Parking?

|
If a domain is not parked it will simply be inaccessible
to anyone. Hosting a temporary web page stating "web
site under - construction" on it is called as Domain
parking. |

What
are subdomains?
|
|
A
website, for example having a URL like test.domain.com
is called as a subdomain. Subdomains are usually treated
as separate sites from the main domain site. |

|
What
DNS should my domain name point to? |
|
After
your domain is booked, we will create all the details
and mail it to you. However, all virtual hosting accounts
point to:
ns2.fastdcservers.net
ns3.fastdcservers.net |
|
|
|
Do
you support all domain name extensions? |
|
Yes,
we support all the standard domain name suffixes. |

|
I
have been notified that my account has been set up but
my site is still not active. ? |
|
At times due to some technical limitation it would take
somewhere about 48 hours for a domain to get activated.
Or at times the activated because of incorrect entries
of DNS servers, or that your ISP's DNS server has not
yet been updated. It generally takes 24 hours for domain
names to become active. This is just how the Internet
works; there is no way we can speed up the process. |
|
|
|
I
have NOT been notified that my account has been set up
and its been over 24 hours.? |
|
This
could be caused by a provisioning error. If you have not
received any e-mails from us with a few hours of ordering
please contact us via live chat or via e-mail. |
