Frequently Asked Questions:
Domain & Hosting:
-
A domain name is your online identity. It is unique to you as no two parties can have the same domain name. If you’re a local business, a blogger, or just about anyone who wants to get online, a domain name would be required.
-
Domain names provide a clean, user-friendly, and convenient option to access your website. A simple descriptive website is easy to remember and looks great on a business card. Your website and email communication will have your domain name in it, making you look professional online. Think of [email protected] or [email protected].
At Halfshut, you can get .com domain at lowest price. Other popular domain extensions including .com.bd, .net, .org and more are available too. Wondering how to buy a website domain name? Read ahead. -
Best domain name explanation – it’s your address on the Internet. This address in actuality is a series of numbers used to find and identify computers on the web called Internet Protocol (IP). While it is not practical to remember a series of numbers for a website, domain names were created to convert those numbers to ease-to-remember names and phrases. Therefore, when a user types in www.halfshut.com.bd, the Domain Name System (DNS) translates the domain name into IP numbers. The Internet then uses these numbers to connect to Halfshut’s website.
-
Your domain name should be a word or phrase that’s catchy and easy to remember and of course, relevant to your / blog / topic. If it is a professional website, be sure to use the company name in the domain name. If it is a blog, think of a name related to the content you will be putting out (e.g. food, fashion etc.)
It’s also a good idea to keep your domain name short (between 5 – 20 characters) for easy recall. Avoid using short-forms or difficult phrases. Avoid numbers in a domain name so as to eliminate confusion between ‘1’ and ‘One’, for example. Most importantly, pick a domain name you would be proud to give out as your web address. -
Once you get a domain name, any failure to keep it registered could cost you your whole online identity. Domain names can only be registered for a year so you will need to keep a tab on your expiry date and renew it at least 2 weeks before expiration. If you lose your domain name, your Registrar will then own it and sell it to the highest bidder.
It’s a good practice to keep all your information registered properly – billing and administrative contacts are updated and email addresses are active. Notifications of renewals and price hikes will be sent to the registered email addresses. Missing out on such emails could put you at risk of losing your domain name which in turn means losing your brand online, your online presence, and the awareness you built. -
