What is a domain name?

Domain names are the familiar, easy to remember names for computers on the Internet (such as internic.net). They correspond to a series of numbers (called Internet Protocol numbers) that serve as routing addresses on the Internet. Domain names are used generally as a convenient way of locating information and reaching others on the Internet.

How can you only charge $25 a year when your competitors charge $35?

In late 1998 the US Government dissolved the monopoly on domain name registrations. Recently new companies have come along who offer less expensive domain name registration. We are one of those companies. We charge $25 a year for domain registration while Network Solutions® and most other competitors continue to charge $35. We have yet to see a company that can beat our prices.

What does it mean to "register" a domain name?

The Internet domain name system (DNS) consists of a directory, organized hierarchically, of all the domain names and their corresponding computers registered to particular companies and persons using the Internet. When you register a domain name, it will be associated with the computer on the Internet you designate during the period the registration is in effect.

Someone else has registered by company's name as a .com domain name. What is the process for resolving my complaint?

All ICANN-accredited registrars follow a uniform dispute resolution policy. Under that policy, disputes over entitlement to a domain-name registration are ordinarily resolved by court litigation between the parties claiming rights to the registration. Once the court rules who is entitled to the registration, the registrar will implement that ruling. In disputes arising from registrations allegedly made abusively (such as "cybersquatting" and cyberpiracy"), the uniform policy provides an expedited administrative procedure to allow the dispute to be resolved without the cost and delays often encountered in court litigation. In these cases, you can invoke the administrative procedure by filing a complaint with one of the dispute-resolution service providers listed at http://www.icann.org/udrp/approved-providers.htm. For more details on the uniform dispute resolution policy, see http://www.icann.org/udrp/udrp.htm.

What are the rules for registration of .net and .org names?

They are the same as for .com. Traditionally, however, names in Net have been used by organizations involved in Internet infrastructure activities and .org is frequently used by not-for-profit organizations. Are .com, Net, and .org domain names available for registration on a global basis? Yes. The .com, Net, and .org domains are available for registration by Internet users across the globe. ICANN-accredited domain name registrars are also located in various countries around the world.

What type of domain names can I register through your service?

Any .COM, .ORG, or .NET domain name that is not currently registered. All domain names must follow the standard guidelines: they must be a maximum of 67 characters long (including the .com, Net, or .org extension), with no special characters besides for a dash. Characters like & * and ( are not permitted. Numbers, on the other hand, are OK.

How can I check to see if my domain name is not already registered by someone else?

Just begin the registration process our system will tell you if your domain name is already taken.Or you can check right away by clicking here and conducting a WHOIS search.

How quickly will my domain name be registered after I place my order?

Once your order and account are verified by our sales department, your domain will be registered right away! It normally takes 1-2 business days for our sales department to review a new order. After we process your order it may take up to 3 days for Internet Service Providers to update their DNS records and make the new domain name accessible.

How long can I register my domain name for?

You can register your domain name for 1 to 10 years using our system. The cost $25 a year. We recommend that you register your domain name for at least 2 years in advance to save the hassle of having to renew your registration on an annual basis.

What happens when my domain name expires?

We will send you an email notification a few weeks before your registration expires. You will have to respond to the message and let us know you would like to renew your registration. If you do not, the domain name will eventually expire and open up for registration by other people

How can I make changes to my domain name after it is registered, such as changing DNS servers?

Visit our website at www.questdomain and click on "Client Center". From that page select "Manage My Domain". You will be asked for your domain name, your username and your password. When you register a domain through our system you choose this username and password.

Will your prices change in the future?

We do not anticipate our prices changing, but we reserve the right to change them if necessary.

Do I have to sign any sort of contract?

You do not have to sign a contract, but you do have to agree to the Registration Agreement and Domain Dispute Policy.
