| QUESTION: How do I check if a domain name is available? |
|
To find out if a domain name is available, go to our Home Page and enter the desired second-level domain in the domain name search box; then select the preferred extension (top-level domain) from the drop-down list. Click Check Availability to instantly find out if the requested domain is available. If it is, you may proceed to the next steps in the registration procedure. If the domain name you requested is already taken you will be presented with any available alternatives (i.e. same second-level domain, but with a different extension). For example, you may be able to select a .info or .ws top-level domain, rather than the requested .com. Thus you would be registering www.whatever.info, instead of www.whatever.com. If none of the suggested alternatives are to your liking, you can start over again and search for a different domain for your future Web site. An alternative solution is to use DynaGen Advanced Search, which will
generate a list of variations of a desired domain name. You may pick any
of the available listings. |
