What is a
domain name?
A domain name is the essence of your company's online
identity. It is the address your customers use to find
information about your products and services on the web.
Domain names allow Internet users to type in a name, such as
WebeSearch.com, to identify a numeric Internet
Protocol (IP) address such as 207.15.12.173. The purpose of
domain names is to allow users connected to the Internet the
ability to find web sites without having to memorize the
long, numerical (IP) addresses that actually locate the
computers or servers on the Internet.

What does it mean to
"register" a domain name?
There is a central registry of all domain names on the
Internet. For your domain name to become a part of the
registry, your domain name needs to be added to that
registry. "Registering" a domain name means you
are associated with that domain name for the period of the
registration. Only ICANN-approved Registrars have access to
the database. "Registering" a name means you own
it, and no one else can register that exact same name!

Who should register a
domain name?
Anyone thinking about establishing a presence on the
Internet should register a domain name. You don't have to
utilize it right away, but you can reserve it for your
future use. Domains are being registered at the rate of more
than 300,000 per month- they go quickly!

How long does the
registration process take?
WebeSearch.comís application process
should only take a few minutes to complete. All
registrations take place in real time- once your application
has been processed and approved, your name is registered.

Is it possible for someone to
register my domain name after I have registered it?
The availability of .com, .net and .org domain names is
verified through a central registry system. This system
prevents a domain name that is successfully registered from
being registered by another person or entity. The WebeSearch.com registration
and processing system updates the central registry in real
time.

What methods of payment does
WebeSearch accept?
WebeSearch.com accepts all major credit
cards: Visa, MasterCard, American Express or Discover.

If a domain name is already
registered, can I find out who owns the name?
Yes. If you check the availability of a domain name and it
is already registered, click on the box: "Show
Registrant Information". This will display the contact
information associated with a registered domain name.

Who do I contact for
additional assistance?

I've got my domain
name, now what?
There are many things you can do with your new domain.
Some people want to build a website for their corporate or
personal use. If that is the case, you must contact a web
design/ hosting company- WebeSearch.com does recommend WebeSearch.com. Once they have a
website ready for you, we can have your new domain hosted by
their servers. Contact your web host, and get their Domain
Name Server Info (DNS Info). You can have the new DNS info
put into your domain by clicking on the "Domain
Manager" link. The domain will then transfer to your
new web host in 24-48 hours.
Others want to do email addresses. Again, get the DNS info
of your ISP. You can have them set up mailboxes to route
from your domain being hosted on their web servers.
Some just want to resell their domain name. In that
case, you may certainly sell your new domain to whomever you
like. You may transfer your domain to a new buyer by using
our "Transfer of Ownership" form in the
"Manage Your Domain" section.
