A domain name is the unique address of your website on the internet. It typically consists of a memorable name followed by an extension (e.g., .com, .org, .net).

To register a domain name, simply search for an available name through a domain registrar, select the desired domain, and complete the registration process by providing necessary information and payment details.

Domain registration can be completed almost instantly once you've selected an available domain name and provided all required information. However, it may take up to 24-48 hours for the domain to become fully functional due to DNS propagation.

If your domain expires, it enters a grace period during which you can renew it without additional fees. After the grace period, the domain may enter a redemption period where you can still recover it, but with additional fees. If not renewed during this time, the domain becomes available for anyone to register.

Yes, most registrars offer the option to register a domain for multiple years, typically up to 10 years. Registering a domain for a longer period can provide convenience and potentially lock in a lower price.

DNS (Domain Name System) is the system that translates domain names into IP addresses, allowing users to access websites by typing in easy-to-remember domain names instead of complex numerical IP addresses. It's essential for navigating the internet effectively.
