Frequently Asked Questions

How many domain names can I register?

For the Top Level .com, .net, .org, there is no restriction. You can register as many as you like. We know of clients with a few hundred.

If someone offers to buy my domain, can I sell it?

Yes domain names are transferable.

How much can I get for cutename.com?

It could depend how desperately someone may want your domain name. The price is negotiable between the buyer and the seller. Check for current rates by using a search engine. Look for "domains for sale".

I have a free website at geocities.com, can I redirect my domain to this address at geocities?

Yes we can redirect your domain to any URL you like. We charge a nominal annual fee for this, click here.

If I register a domain with you, can I use the email address me@myname.com?

Not unless you are hosting or redirecting with us, or some other ISP.

After I registered my domain, I found out that it is actually someone else's trade mark, what happens then.

As a registry, we register any name you like provided its available. The onus is on you to make sure you are not infringing on someone else's trade mark. You should seek legal counsel on this. It could depend on what your intentions are, and how you are going to put the domain name in use. Trade Marks are generally granted in a certain category of products or service. In cases of dispute the Uniform Domain-Name Dispute-Resolution Policy (often referred to as the "UDRP") is an integral part of your purchase agreement if you register through us. This gives you protection as well as providing the means to resolve disputes.

I thought of this really cool name, and I registered mycoolname.com. What protection do I have against others registering the .net or .org variety?

You have no protection. If the other varieties are  available at the time of registration, you could register those as well. You could also consider applying for a trade mark for "mycoolname". Again seek legal counsel advice.
