fee of only $ 9.99/ Year that is payable to the registrar. This is an annual charge and
PakExperts

expiration for renewal purposes.
Why would I want to Register a Domain
Name?
At this moment, new Internet Domain Names are being
registered at an astronomical rate! If you don't
reserve your Domain Name now, you risk having it
pulled right out from under you...forever. You see, no
Domain Name can be registered twice. If you don\'t
reserve now, then someone else can.
Can I access my domain without the
"www" in front?
Yes, you will be able to access the domain address
with or without the "www" in front of the domain name.
Example: [http://www.yourname.com] or [http://your-name.com]
is acceptable, whichever you prefer.
How do I change my domain name?
Once registered, the domain name is unchangeable. You
can register another domain name if you wish.
How many domain Names can I register?
You can register as many as you like provided they are
available to be booked. In all circumstances you will
have to adopt the same process of domain registration,
which you were adapting to book a single domain.
What if my domain name turns out to be
taken?
This is a very real possibility as there are tens of
thousands of names being registered EVERY day. Even if
its available when you sign-up for PakExperts domain
services in this regard, there may be someone in the
process already that wants that domain name. The best
bet is to pick a domain name that is simple for
customers to remember yet unique enough that no one
will possibly think of using it. You may also be able
to get a name close to what you want merely by putting
- or some other part of your legal business name into
your domain name.
If I register a domain from you, will I
be listed as its registrant?
Any public domain registration that you register
through us will have your name as the registrant, just
as if you had registered it through any other ICANN
certified Registrar like Network Solutions/Verisign or
Register.com. You will be able to change all four
contact fields for the domain whenever you want. You
can change the name servers for your domain or use the
domain to register your own name servers.
We do not charge for any of these services. You are
free to work with your domain however and whenever you
want to.
What are DNS records?
The DNS (Domain Name System) records control the
functionality of domain names. Each registered domain
name has a DNS record. The DNS record is made of sub
records including MX, A, and CNAME.You can manage the
DNS records for your domain name by clicking on
'manage domain name' on the Account(s) Summary page.
Click on 'edit' below the respective records to
independently edit your MX, A, and CNAME records.

Two

What are the rules
and regulations of domain transfer:
Some of the rules and regulations of transferring a
domain are:
You cannot transfer a domain name that has been
registered or previously transferred within the last
60 days.
You need to ensure that the email address of the
administrative contact of your domain name at your
current registrar is correct. We would be required to
contact you at this address and make a request for
approval of the transfer.
After we have notified you that the transfer is
completed, you must log in to your account and verify
the contact information for your domain. Inaccurate or
incomplete contact data may result in the cancellation
of your domain name.
If the domain name is locked, the transfer will not be
accomplished. So, you will first need to contact your
current Registrar in order to unlock your domain name.
How long will it
take to transfer a domain ?
Ans. It usually takes around 7 to 15 days to transfer
depend on the status of a domain..
Will my name and
contact information be publicly available ?
Yes, information about who owns the particular website
and domain name is publicly available only to allow
rapid resolution of technical problems and to permit
enforcement of consumer protection, trademark, and
other laws. The registrar will make this information
available to the public on a "Whois" site.
Someone
else is already using the domain name I want. Is there
anything I can do?
Once a
domain name is registered, it belongs to the person
or company that registered it. If you are really
interested in having a domain name that is already
registered to someone else, you can contact the
owner of the domain name to find out if the name is
for sale or you can wait for the registration to
expire.
What kinds
of things should I consider when choosing a domain
name?
Because
your domain name will represent your business, you
should make sure that the name you choose is
memorable, descriptive and that it instills
confidence, particularly if you plan on selling
goods and services on your site.
Your domain name can be up to 67 characters long and
can include any combination of letters, numbers and
dashes (although it cannot start or end with a
dash). A domain name must end with a domain
extension, such as .net, .com, .org or .co.uk. The
letters “www” at the beginning of a name are not
considered part of the domain name.
How long
will it take for my transfer to be processed?
Transferring a domain name to another
registrar
can take 5 to 14 days. Once you submit your request
for transfer through Customer AccountManager,
PakExperts sends
an email message to the Administrative Contact
listed on the
Whois record
for your domain name requesting authorization for
the registrar transfer. The Administrative Contact
has 14 days to respond to the email message.
Once the Administrative Contact authorizes the
registrar change, it takes 5 to 7 days to process
the request. If the Administrative Contact does not
authorize the request or does not respond by the
deadline, the transfer process will be canceled.
What
happens to my domain name during a domain name
registration transfer?
Until
the domain name registration process completes,
nothing will happen to your domain name
registration. As long as you remain current with
your billing with your current registrar, there will
be no service interruption. However, if your domain
name expires after you have requested the transfer
but before the transfer completes, you will need to
renew your service with your current registrar to
ensure your domain name remains yours.
What is a
redemption period?
When
your domain name expires, you generally have 5 to 10
days to bring your billing up-to-date with your
current registrar. After this grace period, your
domain name enters what is termed a "redemption
period." During this time, no action can be taken on
your domain name. In order to re-activate your
domain, you must pay a fee to your current
registrar. This fee typically ranges from $135 to
$150. If your domain name is currently in the
redemption period, you should contact your current
registrar for details.
What is a
"registrar lock"?
When you
register a domain name, you can request what is
known as a "lock" on your domain name. A lock
prevents contact information from being made
publicly available. If your domain name has a lock
on it, you must first contact your current registrar
and request that the lock be removed. Once the lock
has been removed, PakExperts can initiate the domain
name registration transfer for you.
What is a
Whois record?
A Whois
record indicates who owns a particular domain name
and provides contact information for the owner. The
Whois record is public record, as mandated by ICANN,
the governing body that regulates the domain name
registration space. You can search for Whois records
associated with .com, .net, .org, .biz and .info
domain names using NetNation's domain name look-up
tool.
What is a
registrar? Who is ICANN?
A
registrar is a company that has been licensed by
ICANN to register domain names for the public.
PakExperts currently works with OnlineNIC Inc., an
ICANN-accredited registrar, to process domain name
registrations.
ICANN stands for The Internet Corporation for
Assigned Names and Numbers. It is a non-profit
organization composed of various stakeholders in the
Internet space and governs domain name
registrations.
