What is a domain registry? What are the things to note when applying for domain registration?

The rapid development of the internet has led to a surge in website creation and domain name registrations.

1. What information is included in a domain name registration form?

① The domain name being applied for;

② The hostnames and IP addresses of the primary and secondary domain name servers;

③ The domain holder's company name, responsible person, industry, mailing address, postal code, email address, telephone number, fax number, and authentication information;

④ The names, company names, mailing addresses, postal codes, email addresses, telephone numbers, and fax numbers of the domain's technical contact, management contact, payment contact, and responsible person.

2. What are some important considerations for domain name registration?

① Is the domain allowed for filing?

If registering an unfamiliar domain name extension, always ask the domain registrar if the domain is allowed for filing!

Domain extensions like .com, .cn, and .net are allowed for website filing in China, while some other overseas domain extensions are not.

② Domain Name Real-Name Authentication

After registering a domain name, you need to perform real-name authentication to identify the domain owner. Without real-name authentication, the domain cannot be resolved, bound, or used for website creation.

③ Domain Name Expiration and Renewal

Domain names are paid annually and expire after one year. Renewing the domain name annually is crucial to avoid it being registered by malicious individuals due to forgetting to renew.

④ Can I Get a Refund if I Registered the Wrong Domain Name?

Once you click to activate a domain name, the registration fee is paid and the domain name is activated; refunds are not possible. Always check your domain name combination carefully when applying for a website domain name to ensure there are no errors.
