The rules and format for domain name registration are quite specific and complex, but with enough attention you could learn the procedures by yourself. However, the main stumbling block to registering for most people is the requirement that you must have name server computers programmed to respond to the domain name. Without this equipment and capability, which are normally the province of commercial service providers, the domain name will not be registered. Our company arranges the name servers as part of the registration service. It makes the rules, administers the registration process, and maintains the official data base of domain name registrations.
All applications are subject to InterNIC approval.
InterNIC does not screen domain names for registered trademarks or other rights. Since domain names are registered on a first come, first serve basis, it is wise to register Internet business and brand names as soon as possible. A domain name can not begin or end with a dash. Domain Names are case insensitive, ie. Many large companies, particularly in the communications and entertainment industries hold domain registrations for many names covering various trademarks, trade names, or simply variants on their company names.
