Search Domain Availability

• Your domain name is arguably the most important part of your online presence and it all starts with a simple domain name search.
• Finding the right name is as easy as doing a domain check at Exabytes. Just enter the domain you want in the box at the top of this page and we’ll let you know if it’s available to be registered.
• Within seconds we’ll tell you not only if that name’s available, but suggest others you might not have thought of – from standards like .com and .net to new domains like .biz, .asia and many others.

After you check domain availability and the domain you want is already taken, you have two choices:

1. Pick an alternative domain.
2. Try to negotiate to buy back the name.

If you choose the second option, you must carry out a domain name search on the WHOIS databases to find the owner.

Once you know who owns the domain name, you can send an email or find another way to get in touch with the owner using the information you’ve found.

The next step is to negotiate with the owner as soon as you agree to the deal and exchange payment for ownership.

• A website is the key to doing business around the world. But without a memorable web address – a.k.a. domain name – customers may have a hard time finding you or remembering how to get back to your site.
• But Exabytes isn’t just about domain names. We’ve got everything you need to get online. From building your website to attracting new customers to securing their data when they make a purchase, Exabytes has you covered.

A domain name is like an online version of a physical home address. People use it to find your website. You can type a website’s address into Google’s search bar, and the top search result should be the site you want.

Furthermore, the group of characters that come after the period in a web address is called a “domain extension.” For example, the .sg at the end of the Exabytes domain name is the domain extension. Common domain extensions include .com, .net, .org, .co.

TLD stands for top-level domain. It comes at the end of any domain, like.com,.org, or.gov.

ccTLD stands for country-code top-level domains. It is a type of TLD used to identify a certain country. .co.uk, .de, .mx, and .fr are all examples of ccTLDs.

gTLD stands for generic top-level domain. They are the most common type of domain name. Part of the reason for this is that this category includes .com domains, which have more registrations than all of the ccTLDs put together.

The WHOIS domain database is a list of all domains that have been registered. It is often used for different legal purposes. Network administrators use the WHOIS lookup to find problems and fix them.

For example, with WHOIS information, one can check if a domain name is available, find trademark violations, and hold domain name registrants responsible.

WHOIS protection is sometimes called “privacy protection” because it hides information about the domain name’s owner that could be found with a WHOIS lookup.

With privacy protection, you can replace your name, address, phone number, email address, and business name with generic information that can’t be used to find you.

The ICANN organization manages the central registry for Internet resources, which includes a link to the WHOIS server of the responsible registry and the contact information for this registry.

Users only need to go to http://whois.icann.org, type in a domain name, and click “Lookup” to do a domain check.

The raw WHOIS data is organized by contact information (domain name registrant, administrative, technical, and abuse contact). It also has information about the registrar, the status of the domain name, and important dates.

By far, the most popular and valuable domain extension is .com. Simply put, Google gives more weight to websites with a .com TLD.

Google is more likely to give ‘yourbusiness.com’ more authority than ‘yourbusiness.business’ because more people are likely to type in yourbusiness.com than any other TDL.

The .com domain is the one that stands out the most. This is basically why the .com domain extension is the best for SEO.
