Domain FAQs

The most-asked questions about our domains services and billing. Can’t find the answer? Check our Knowledge Base or simply Contact Us.

What is a domain name and why do I need one?

A domain name is a human-readable address used to identify a location on the Internet. It consists of a string of characters (name) followed by a top-level domain (TLD), such as .uk, .com, or .net. For example, in "example.com," "example" is the second-level domain and ".com" is the TLD. Registering a domain name is an essential step for anyone looking to establish a presence on the web, whether for personal use, business, or creative projects.

What is a domain extension?

A domain extension, also known as a top-level domain (TLD), is the suffix at the end of a domain name that indicates the type of organization or geographical area associated with the domain. Examples include:

.com - Commercial businesses
.org - Non-profit organizations
.net - Network providers
.edu - Educational institutions
.gov - Government entities

Domain extensions help users identify the purpose of a website and can also impact search engine optimization (SEO) strategies. Selecting the appropriate domain extension is essential for conveying the right message to your audience.

What is domain name registration?

When a business or individual wants to establish an online identity, they need a domain name that users can easily remember and access. Domain name registration ensures that no one else can use that particular name for a specified period, typically one year, with options to renew.

How do I check if a domain is available?

Checking the availability of a domain name is a straightforward process. Here are the steps you can follow:

Use the Search Tool: On the Homepage or Domains page, locate the search bar dedicated to checking domain availability.
Enter Your Desired Domain Name: Type in the domain name you want to check, including the extension (e.g., .uk, .com, .net).
Review Results: We will inform you if the domain is available or already registered. If it's taken, we may suggest alternatives.

How do I renew my domain?

Renewing your domain is a crucial step to ensure that your website remains active and accessible. Below are the steps you typically need to follow:

Log in to Your Account: Access your Galaxy Design account.
Locate Your Domain: Navigate to the section that lists your registered domains.
Select the Domain to Renew: Choose the specific domain name you wish to renew.
Choose Renewal Options: Select the duration for which you want to renew the domain (usually from 1 to 10 years).
Complete Payment: Enter your payment information and confirm the renewal.
Confirm Renewal: Check for a confirmation email or notification indicating that your domain has been successfully renewed.

Remember to renew your domain before it expires to avoid any loss of service or potential issues with ownership.

How do I get a free domain name?

You can get 1 year free domain name with annual subscription for Power and Pro Hosting plans or when you purchase one of our Website Design packages.

What is DNS?

The Domain Name System (DNS) is a hierarchical system that translates human-friendly domain names (like www.example.com) into IP addresses (like 192.0.2.1) that computers use to identify each other on the network. This process is similar to how a phone book links people's names to their phone numbers, making it easier for users to access websites without needing to remember complex numeric addresses.

Can I manage my own DNS without buying a hosting package?

Managing your own DNS is a crucial aspect of maintaining control over your domain name without necessarily purchasing hosting services. Many users wonder if they can handle DNS management independently, and the answer is yes.
When you register a domain, you'll have access to DNS management tools. This allows you to configure DNS records such as A, CNAME, MX, and TXT records, which are essential for directing traffic and configuring email services.

Can I update my personal details?

Yes, you can update your personal details easily. Here’s how you can do it:

Log into Your Account: Access Galaxy Design website and log in using your credentials.
Navigate to Domain Management: Find the section that lists your registered domains.
Select the Domain: Choose the domain for which you want to update your details.
Edit Personal Information: Look for an option to edit your registrant information, where you can update your name, address, email, and phone number.
Save Changes: After making your updates, ensure you save the changes to reflect them in the registry.

Can I update my nameservers?

Yes, you can update your nameservers within your admin area. Here is how:

Access Your Account: Log in to your Galaxy Design account.
Locate Domain Settings: Find the section for managing domains where you can edit or configure settings.
Update Nameservers: Enter the new nameserver information provided by your hosting provider or DNS service.
Save Changes: Make sure to save or confirm any changes made to ensure they take effect.
Propagation Time: Be aware that changes may take some time to propagate across the internet, typically between a few minutes to 48 hours.

Can I have email addresses with my domain?

Not at the moment. You would need to buy one of our hosting packages.
