Domain parking is a service to reserve (park) a
domain name for later use. This is useful when you want to get a
specific domain before someone else does, or when your web site
requires some time for development.
13. Do you handle the Domain registration
process?
Yes. We use an ICANN accredited Registrar for Domain
Registrations. Click

14. How long before my domain name is
active?
Once the InterNIC announces that your domain name has been
registered (or transferred, if applicable), it usually takes
anywhere from 24-72 hours before it is visible to all users of
the Internet. All Internet providers must update their records
(DNS tables) to reflect new site locations.
15. How long does it take to set up
a new account?
Accounts are usually setup and active within a few hours of
contacting us. When the account is set up, an activation notice
will be sent to you via e-mail including a user ID, password,
and uploading instructions. If your domain name is registered or
transferred on the same day of signup, upon request, we
can give you a temporary URL to access your site via the
Web prior to the completion of either their domain registration
or transfer.
16. How long does a registration last? Can
it be renewed?
You can choose to pay for your domain name for 1 year at a
time or for up to ten years.

17. Can I use my account for commercial
purposes?
Of course you can use your account for commercial purposes.
The World Wide Web has become the most efficient and
cost-effective means of making information, products and
services available to the users of the Internet community and we
encourage our customers to participate in such an enormous
medium.
18. Will I be able to access my domain
name with or without the WWW.?
Upon request, we can setup your name so both the
http://www.yourname.com and http://yourname.com" will bring
up your web site.
19. What is a domain name pointer?
A domain name pointer allows you to point multiple domain
names to the same website. This means if you type in
www.domain1.com and www.domain2.com you will end up on the same
page.
