How to register .com domains
Here’s a five step process for searching, registering, and confirming your prospective new .com domain.
To register a domain, you first need to check the register to see if it’s available. In this case, you can find the register here:
As you can see, the domain is available, so next, you can work with a registrar to acquire the domain, such as EBRAND or EuroDNS. Then, it’s a simple five-step process to register you new domain.
1. Contact information for WHOIS
Once you know the domain is available, you’re required to provide some contact information to document your prospective WHOIS data.
2. DNS configuration
Next, the registrar helps configure your DNS (Domain Name System), including setting up your nameservers, DNS records, and domain security protocols.
3. Registration period
With your DNS configured, you then choose how long you’d like to register your domain for (typically multiple years, for convenience).
4. Registration
Finally, we submit these details to the domain registry.
5. Confirmation
Once the registry accepts these details, and your domain goes live, the registrar lets you know via email.
Congratulations!
