Before registering a domain name, decide if search engine optimization is one of your goals. If this is the case, include keywords in the domain name. The domain name is the first thing that search engines look at when ranking your site for keywords.
Domain registration services number in the hundreds. Prices
currently vary from about $8 to $15 for annual domain name
registration. What's the difference between all of these different
domain registration services?
Note: AShop Web Hosting is not a domain registrar and we
don't resell domain names. When registering your domain with
a registrar or registration service, set the DNS so that it
points to your hosting service's DNS name.
DNS name for AShop Web Hosting:
NS1.ASHOPWEBHOSTING.COM
NS2.ASHOPWEBHOSTING.COM
Currently, there are only about 100 official ICANN-Accredited
registrars in the United States. These are organizations that
are financially strong and have passed strict standards. They
are governed by regulations that are in place to protect the
public. Domain registration is usually completed within 24
hours when done through an official ICANN-Accredited Registrar.
There are hundreds of non-accredited domain registration
services that are essentially brokers or middlemen. They sell
domain names at retail prices and submit domain name registrations
in bulk for substantial discounts. Usually, the process of
domain name registration with a non-accredited domain registration
service takes anywhere from 72 hours to 2 weeks.
Note: Many registration services now offer web hosting plans.
