Frequently Asked Questions
We’ve compiled a list of answers to common questions.
What is a domain name and why do I need one?
A domain name is what people type into a browser to find a website – similar to how you use a street address to find a building. Every website, server, or digital device that is connected to the Internet has an assigned IP address that you can use to see or visit it. This IP address is a long string of numbers and letters that would be very difficult for people to memorize, so a domain name is simply a human-friendly version of that IP address.
When you type a domain name – like www.godaddy.com or www.google.com – into your browser, the domain name system, or DNS, takes this domain and translates it into its IP address, allowing the associated website to be found.
In this sense, GoDaddy can help you find a domain name that best suits your business so you can easily promote your website.
Having your own domain name can help you appear more legitimate to people who search for you or your business online. With a domain name, you can:
- Build a website for your business
- Create a professional email with your domain name
How do I search for a domain name?
Simply enter the web address you want to register into the search box. If the name you entered has already been registered, we’ll provide suggestions of alternative names. If the domain is available, follow the on-screen instructions to complete the registration process.
How do I check if a domain is available?
To check if a domain name is available, just type it in GoDaddy’s search bar and we’ll tell you immediately if someone else already owns it.
- If it’s taken, you can search for your desired domain name using our WHOIS Lookup.
- Or try our Domain Broker service, where we can negotiate acquiring the domain from its current owner.
We also offer a Domain Backorder service, where you purchase a backorder credit to give you a chance to get the domain you want when it goes to auction.
