Unlike domain registrars like Network Solutions and Register.com who charge $35 per year, Webulant saves you over 40% on domain names. We charge only $18/year. back to top Are you a domain registrar? No, Webulant is not a domain registrar. We have partnered with Everplanet to offer domain registration to our customers. By forging a strong partnership with a company that focuses solely on domain registration services, the Webulant team can focus all our efforts on providing reliable and affordable Windows web hosting services. back to top If I sign up a new domain name, who owns it? Technically, no one owns a domain name. By paying the domain registration fee, you license the rights to use that unique domain name throughout the world for a specific time. Therefore, should you ever cancel your Webulant hosting account, you will still own the rights for that domain name, for as long as you continue to pay the registration fees. back to top Is there a limit to the length of my domain name? Domain names can be up to 67 alphanumeric characters and hyphens. This includes the .com, .net or .org extension, which counts as four characters. In addition, domain names cannot begin or end with a hyphen. back to top How do I register an international domain name? (e.g., .uk, .ca, .br, etc.) Webulant can host your international domain name. However, we do not register international domain names. Each country has their own domain registry that either operates directly with the public or through resellers. You will need to find the particular international domain registry and follow their procedures. Webulant can provide you with any information required by the international domain registry. Typically, the international domain registry requires Webulant's DNS information, which is listed in question 1, above. back to top How long does it take for the world to recognize my domain name? After ordering, Webulant will update our internal DNS (domain name servers) within 24 hours. Our domain registration partner, Everplanet, will update their DNS within 48 hours. After these steps, it is up to the Internet Service Providers (ISPs) around the world to update their DNS to recognize your domain name. Most major ISPs, such as Earthlink and AOL, update their DNS several times each day. However, smaller ISPs may update their DNS less frequently. Therefore, most of the world will recognize your domain name within a few days, but it may take up to a week for the entire Internet community to access your domain name. back to top Still have questions?
