What is a Domain Name?
Most people want to get a short domain name, corresponding to their activities.
On the other hand, most of the unique single-word domain names have already been taken.
As a whole, there are over 112 million active domains only for .com, .net, .org, .info, .biz, .us TLDs, 82 million of which are .com TLD alone.

What is TLD / SLD / ccTLD / ccSLD?
TLD is short for top-level domain and represents the last part of the domain name.For example in the domain name awardspace.com, .com is the top-level domain.
An SLD stands for a second-level domain and designates the word before the TLD. In the example above “awardspace” is the SLD.
A ccTLD stands for a country-code top-level domain, examples are .us and .eu domains.
A ccSLD is county-code second-level domain e.g. .co.uk, .org.uk, etc.
A gTLD, or generic top-level domain, is used to describe domains not generally associated with a particular country e.g. .com, .net, .org, .info, .biz, .edu, .name, .gov, .int, .mil, .pro, .aero, .coop, .museum.

What is a domain name transfer and how to transfer a domain?
A domain name transfer is a process of changing the registrar of a domain name. A domain name registrar is a company accredited to manage reservations/transfers of Internet domain names observing some guidelines and rules.In short, a domain name transfer happens when the company that you registered the domain name with gets changed while the owner of the domain name (you) stays the same. The only person who may initiate and finish a domain name transfer is the sole owner of the domain name.

Domain Transfer Benefits.

Domain Privacy.

Why is my domain’s WHOIS information public?
WHOIS is a public database containing the contact information of all registered and active domains and their owners.ICANN (Internet Corporation for Assigned Names and Numbers) is the authority binding all domain registrars to make newly registered domains and their contact information publicly available.
This public information is best used when verifying domain ownership or, for example, when the domain is transferred or is being investigated for illegal activities on the Internet such as copyright violations, etc.
What is Domain Privacy Protection?
When you register a domain, your private personal information including name, address, phone number, and email address is listed in the so-called WHOIS of the domain, which is publicly available. The Domain Privacy Protection service legally replaces the WHOIS details, covering Administrative, Technical and Billing contact information of your domain’s WHOIS record with generic Domain Privacy Protected contact details.After buying a Domain Privacy Protection service you still own and control your domain. You can still sell, renew, transfer or change settings to your domain name anytime you want.

Why would you need Privacy Protection and what are the benefits?
When you buy a domain name you automatically agree to WHOIS listing your full name, physical address, email address and telephone number under the domain’s name.According to ICANN’s (Internet Corporation for Assigned Names and Numbers) rules and regulations, anyone can look up the WHOIS data on a domain name. Unfortunately, this became a good and free opportunity for spammers, hackers and all types of scammers to use that data for illegal activities. At the very least you can be exposed to unsolicited commercial email (SPAM), other junk email and telemarketing calls.
Domain Privacy Protection is the service that guards a domain’s WHOIS data against being publicly displayed and therefore from unwanted solicitations and scams.
How can I add Domain Privacy WHOIS protection?
Domain Privacy Protection is a service that we offer only for domains registered with or transferred to us. The domain has to be registered first. Right after that, you can add Domain Privacy Protection from your Domain Name Control Panel, New Domains & Services menu.Important: If you already have a domain name with us and do not have access to your Domain Name Control Panel, feel free to contact our Customer Support requesting access to your Domain Name Control Panel. You may contact Customer Support from your Web Hosting, Support Center, Trouble Tickets.

Domains F.A.Q.
Of course you can. You need to bear in mind that the only one that can initiate and finish a domain name transfer is you – the owner of the domain name.
That said, you can count on our support team to help you with the transfer process.
- The domain transfer is possible ONLY if you own this domain
- The domain must be registered and not expired
- The domain must be at least 60 days old
- The domain must be with OK status (Unlocked)
- The EPP key from the current registrar is needed to start a domain transfer
The easiest way to think of domain forwarding is to liken it to a redirect.
In the same manner that a 301 redirect works and one web page lead the user to another one, as the first is not needed anymore, in the domain forwarding the domain name that was entered in the browser will lead the user to another domain name.
This is practice is necessary and recommended approach to a business rebranding. That way, when the people who are already familiar with the brand, will enter in the browser the domain name that they know but will be redirected to the new one.
Of course. AwardSpace believes that everyone should be able to do whatever they might want with their online real estate. Forwarding a domain to another one is sometimes crucial. Especially if you are trying to protect or grow a registered trademark.
As we’ve mentioned above on this page, free domain names are available with a few particular web hosting plans. Namely Web Pro and Max Pack from the shared hosting plans, and all the Semi-Dedicated Web Hosting Packages.
To get both a domain and a hosting plan, you need to know two things:
* which hosting plan you feel is the most appropriate for your goals
* the name of the domain you want to buy
Once you know what you are looking for, you can simply choose one of the hosting packages with a complementary domain name. Thus making a domain registration simultaneously as you get a hosting package.Yes. You can create an email related to your domain name. Thus, making the people that are contacting you or your business, feel that they are contacting a professionalist.
