As we all know, there are many different domain name extensions, including common mainstream domain names and some new top-level domain extensions, such as .im. So, what is an .im domain name? How do you purchase an .im domain name? Below is a detailed guide on purchasing an .im domain name.
1. What is an .im domain name?
The .im domain name is the country-level top-level domain (ccTLD) for the Isle of Man, a British Overseas Territory. IM (Instant Message) stands for "instant message" in Chinese.
An .im domain name can easily be mistaken for an instant messaging domain name. For websites in the instant messaging industry, having a dedicated .im domain name helps users easily distinguish it from other websites. In today's information age, with the information industry booming and people focusing on information communication, IM domain names are becoming increasingly popular.
2. How do you purchase an .im domain name?
1. Open your browser, find the official website where you can register .im domain names, and then find "Register Domain Name" in the navigation bar.
2. Enter the .im domain name you want to register in the domain search box, such as woshishui.im, and click the search button.
3. If the domain name query shows it's not registered, click Register Now.
4. Since .im domain names are managed by a domain registrar, you'll need to register an account on the official website. Existing users can log in directly; if you don't have one, you'll need to register. For newly registered accounts, it's best to add other personal information after completing the domain name registration process to save time and convenience later.
5. After completing the above steps, you can select the domain name registration period. Generally, domain names have registration periods ranging from one to ten years, and the same applies to .im domain names. (Registration price x registration period = registration fee).
6. Fill in the .im domain name owner information. According to the domain name registrar's requirements, registrants must provide true and complete domain name registration information. Please be sure to fill in the information in red carefully. Other information can be filled in according to the prompts.
7. Fill in the domain name's DNS server information. If you don't understand the meaning of this information, it is recommended that you do not modify it to avoid incorrect domain resolution.
8. Click "Agree to the Domain Name Registration Terms," then click "Confirm Information and Proceed to Next" to proceed to the confirmation page.
9. Pay for the .im domain name. Your domain name has been successfully submitted and can be used normally after resolution is complete.
