Register your
perfect domain name

Domains are the equivalent of your home address but in the internet world. A domain name is an address people put into their browsers to access certain sites. This is a much easier way of browsing the web compared to the alternative – manually writing down IP addresses.

When you type a domain name into Google, the top search result is usually what you’re looking for. And if you type the domain name into your browser, you can directly access the website. Examples of domain names are Koerge.com, Facebook.com, and Google.com. For the best results, you should include the name of your brand when registering your ideal domain.

A domain name allows visitors to access your website quickly. Without assigned names for different websites, users would have to access your website by entering an IP address, which is incredibly complicated. An IP address is a string of numbers like 111.111.1.111, so domain names make accessing a website much easier.

When creating a new domain, make sure to include keywords and your brand name so that it’s easier to find your website on the internet.

Just because it is available, doesn’t mean it’s a good domain. Before you check a domain’s availability, first determine if the name is worth a domain check in the first place. Some things to consider when creating a domain name for your site include:

Length. Keep it short; two to three words is ideal.

Simple. Don’t use lengthy or hard-to-spell words that make it hard for users.

Keywords. Add a keyword from your niche. For example, if you sell coffee beans in Seattle, try Seattlecoffeebeans.com.

Avoid numbers. Numbers are hard to remember and make everything more complex.

Brand name. Register a domain with your brand name in it for maximum recognition.

After you register a domain, you can’t change it. However, you can use a domain name search tool to find a similar domain, and if it’s available, you can register and purchase the new domain.

The minimum registration period for domains is one year. At Koerge, you can register TLDs such as .com, .net, and .org domains for three years when you know you’ve got your dream name.

Make sure you renew your domain on time to keep it yours. To ensure that the domain is always registered under your name, you can set up an automatic renewal which happens whenever the domain is set to expire.

No. The “www” part of the web address isn’t part of your domain – it’s a subdomain.

Let’s say you register the domain “wwwexample”. If you included the “www” part in the registration, the domain would look like this when typed in the search bar: www.wwwexample.com. For that reason, you should only enter the exact words that you want to appear in the domain.

Using the domain checker is as easy as typing your domain into the search bar at the top of the page to determine if it's available.

Once you search for the domain, you can follow the steps to purchase it, register it, and get it up and running right away.

We don’t have any special requirements when registering a domain name on our site. We only require basic contact information in case of a problem and a valid payment method.

We are always ready to welcome new customers. You can use the domain checker tool and register a domain even if you aren’t a Hostinger client. If you register a domain with us, you can easily transfer it to your hosting provider if you wish.

Of course. When you register a domain, it belongs to you, not the hosting company that you registered it with.

It is easy to use our domain transfer service to transfer your existing domain to Koerge. We will walk you through every step of the process.

TLD stands for top-level domain. It is the final part of any domain, like .com, .org, or .gov.

ccTLD stands for country-code top-level domains. It is a sub-category of TLDs that are used to identify a particular country. For example, .co.uk, .de, .mx, and .fr are all ccTLDs.

gTLD stands for generic top-level domain. gTLDs are the most common type of domain name. In part, because this category includes .com domains – which have more registrations than all of the ccTLDs combined.

The main gTLDs used to be .com, .org, .net, .edu, .gov, and .mil, but there are now many more gTLDs available, including .online, .xyz, and .name.

With Koerge, domain name registration is instant. So, once you register and activate your domain, you can use it right away.

If, according to the domain search tool, your desired domain is taken, we recommend changing the extension. For example, check the availability of the same name with a .co.uk or .xyz extension.

Privacy protection ensures that certain information about the owner of a domain isn’t available to the public. Usually, this information is discoverable through a WHOIS lookup.

But if you have privacy protection, your name, address, phone number, email address, and business name will be hidden from the public WHOIS database.

Each gTLD has a different meaning. So, make sure to pick one that fits your website.

The .com domains are designed for commercial purposes. However, they are largely seen as the default gTLD for most websites.

A .org domain is recommended for charities, communities, and local organisations. These are still used for the same purpose today. Additionally, .info is great for wikis and tutorial websites.

There are no strict rules for each gTLD; however, you should still stick to the guidelines because it makes it easier for users to identify your site.

Web hosting refers to the practice of renting space from web servers for your website’s files, making your website accessible for anyone online.

Your website’s domain name is the address users type into their browsers to access your website. Since your website files are stored on a web hosting server, the domain name is essentially the address of that storage location.
