Asked Questions |
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 CJsDomains.com, to identify a numeric
Internet Protocol (IP) address. 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 900,000 per month- they go
quickly!

long does the registration process take?
CJsDomains.com's application process should take
less than two 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?
No. 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 CJsDomains.com registration and
processing system updates the central registry in real time.

I've
got my domain name, now what?
There are many uses for your new domain name. Some people want to have a
personal or business website; others want to establish an email address;
and still others want to hold onto their domain for future use or sale.
If you would like to have a Website, simply contact CJscreations.com or
your Internet Service Provider (ISP). They will build your Website and
supply you with their Domain Name Server Information (DNS info). Then,
visit www.CJsDomains.com and enter the DNS information in the
"Domain Manager" section. Within 24-48 hours after you enter
the DNS info., your new Website will be accessible to anyone in the
world. It's that simple!
If you would like to establish an email account, your Web Hosting
Company or Internet Service Provider (ISP) will give you their DNS info.
Simply go to www.CJsDomains.com and enter the DNS info in the
"Domain Manager" section of the web site. Your Web Hosting
Company or ISP can then route email sent to your new domain to either a
new or existing mail box on their servers.
If you would like to resell your domain name, you may transfer the
domain to a new buyer by using the "Ownership Change" form in
the "Domain Manager" section of the Website.

I
own a new domain, but when I type it into my browser, nothing comes up
A domain name is not a website. It's simply an address someone uses to
find a website. If you would like to have a website, you can contact
CJsCreations.com (a web design and hosting company). After they build
you a Website, you can enter their Domain Name Server Info (DNS Info) by
clicking on the "Domain Manager" link. Within 24-48 hours
after you enter the DNS info, your new Website will be accessible to
anyone in the world to see, including you!
