What is bulk registration?

Bulk registration enables you to register multiple domain names at once, saving you time on the process. When you type all the domain names you want in the bulk look-up, it will tell you which domain names are not available and will let you continue with the available names. If you type the domain names without the extensions it will find all available .com, .net or .org. If you type with the extensions it will only search names with that particular extension.

Does it cost anything to make changes to my domain?

No, we charge nothing! It is all in your control, and you have an excellent tool, Manage Account, to maintain, edit, and update your domain information. We will continue to enhance the features of this program.

How long does it take for my information to be updated?

After the first registration, as soon as you receive the confirmation via email your data will be in our database. Then if you need you can login to the Domain Manager to update your data. Once you modify your domain information it is instantly updated on our server. It may take up to 24 hours for root servers of InterNIC to reflect the updates.

I received a confirmation that my domain registration had been processed but when I do a whois, it says that my domain is available?

If you use our WHOIS utility you will not encounter this problem because our database is updated immediately. Network Solutions database is usually updated once a day, but sometimes it takes two or three days. In other WHOIS searches, until their database is updated, your domain will show as not being registered. However it is registered, and can not be reserved by another person. To make sure your domain is registered, use our WHOIS utility.

I have forgotten my password (and/or username), how can I get it?

Email [email protected] with your request including your domain name or order ID. Your Username and Password will be sent to the Admin Contact e-mail.

Can I sell or transfer ownership of my domain?

Yes, domain name is yours to either sell or keep. You can login to Domain Manager and change all contact information to the new owner. Then provide the new owner with the username and password, and tell him to change the password. Please be advised, you cannot do that if you are keeping multiple domains under one profile. If you are going to sell a domain, it would be easier for you to register that domain under its own profile. Otherwise, the domain will need to be separated from the profile before transferring. It is also advised that in selling domain names you protect yourself with written documentation to avoid possible legal disputes
