A Domain Name is used to create an address on the Internet.
Every domain name is unique.
In order to use a domain name it must first be registered. We have a form that our customers can use to register names. Each country has it's own domain name registration authority that maintains a name database for the whole country. In the UK, Nominet are responsible for all UK domain names. However, you don't have to stay with the ISP that registered the name for you.
