The steps to completing a domain registration are incredibly simple, however many developers and site owners or operators get stuck at the point of determining a good name. If you are selecting a multiple word name in your domain registration, consider using hyphens to break up the name for easy reading. With UK Domain Registration the naming authority is Nominet whilst for Global Domain Registration the database is based on a shared registry system. The maximum period of registration of a domain name is generally 10 years. Some registrars are offering longer periods of up to one hundred years, but such offers involve the registrar renewing the registration for their customer.
In some cases, a transfer can take up to 14 days, meaning that the transfer may not complete before a registration expires. If a domain registration expires, irrespective of the reason, it can be difficult, expensive, or impossible for the original owner to get it back.
