Brief Introduction of Domain Registration Process and Overview.

In this article, we will discuss a basic web element which is "Domain name Registration". We found some of our clients have confusion in between domain renew, registration, transfer of a domain, pointing your domain, domain locking, domain parking, domain life cycle and domain operation. Now let's go deeper into this matter to explore it.

What is Domain name:
A domain name is a Web address, such as hostindia.net that is linked to an IP Address (IP Address is a physical point on the Internet). When someone types this domain name into a Web browser, the browser requested to the internet for the same page, then the internet search the IP address integrated into the domain name and then the browser display the web page.

A domain name consists of a top-level and a second-level domain. A Top-Level Domain (TLD) is the part of the domain name located to the right of the dot (in this domain hostindia.net, .NET is the top level domain). The most common top-level domains are .COM, .NET, and .ORG. Some other popular top-level domains are .BIZ, .INFO, .NAME and .WS. The part of the domain name located to the left of the dot “hostindia,” in this case is called the second-level domain (SLD) name. The second-level domain name is the “readable” part of the address and refers to the organization or entity behind the Internet address. Second-level domain names must be registered with an Internet Corporation for Assigned Names and Numbers (ICANN)-Accredited Registrar.

If you want to register a domain then you have to search that domain with a Domain Service Provider like Hostindia.net and then if it is available then you can purchase it. If it is not available means someone had purchased it before you. You can find the details of the domain owner, register company and all details with the help of Who.is. However, you can purchase the same domain name with different domain extension if available.

When registrars provide you a domain name, they need to know 3 basic things:

• What domain name you are securing (yourdomain.com) 
• Who you are (although you can protect your privacy from the public, the registrar needs to know this.
• Where you want that domain to POINT (In other words, what web hosting server you’ll be using for your domain.) If you don’t know this at the time of registering your domain, the registrar will either PARK the domain for you or point it to a default setting that you can change later.

Domain Registration:
Domain registration is the process of acquiring a domain name from a domain name provider. By submitting appropriate information and the registration fee demanded by service provider you can able to get a domain name.

Domain Renewal:
Domain renewal is an after the registration process to extend the validity period of the domain name from the same register. In this process domain, an owner can renew the service by paying the demanded money of registrar. However, you can purchase a domain for a long period of time also. Basically, domain renews process happen after one year, but you can renew for a long period of time.

Domain Transfer:
It's a symbol of dissatisfaction of a customer. In this process, you a domain owner can transfer the domain name from one service provider to another. Basically poor service quality or unfair amount is the main reason of any Domain Name Transfer.

Domain Locking:
This a featured service provided by a hosting service provider to lock a domain to prevent unauthorized transfer your domain to another register or web host by "locking" your domain name servers.

Domain Parking:
If someone purchases a domain then it should be pointed somewhere on the internet. Either you can park your domain or your hoster will park your domain for you. You can build a website and host it at any of time. Your service provider park your domain for free.

Evaluate Your Website’s Performance for a better Conversion.

You are dedicated to your business, you have a very beautiful website with important information for your user, but have you ever check how effective your website is?

When did you check up your website last time?

Did you ask a question to yourself that did evolute your site will help your customer?

I believe your answer will be “NO” for all the above questions!

Now let's dive into how evaluation will speed up your website performance.

As we all know that for an online business your website will be your very first step of creating an online presence, which will give you an identity in the Internet world. Your website can be promoted by several factors which were known as internet marketing strategy. If you fail in business or achieve success in your business all depend on your website performance.

If you are thinking of checking the analyse data of your website then it will be no use until you don't know the goal of your website. Before you start analyzing and optimizing your website you need to find the answer to the following points respectively:

• What is the percentage of visitors coming from various sources?
• What is the percentage of visitors getting converted?
• How much revenue getting per visitor?
• What is investment per sale?

However, almost all websites have installed Google and Bing analytic tool, if you don't have then install one or you can install both analytic and it is free of cost.

Here you can sign-in and get your free tracking code:

Google Analytic

Bing Analytic

Well, if you have done with the install then you will start getting your visitors information. In this case, most challenging part is to track the conversion customer details.

If you are getting a conversion rate of 4% to 8%, then is a normal conversion rate and if you are getting a conversion rate of more than 8% think it is good. However, if you are getting traffic from different sources like paid traffic, affiliate, referral, E-mail marketing, etc. then the conversion rate also varies respectively. If your running multiple program or source to get user then you have to track each source with the conversion rate for better performance.

Ladies and gentleman to get a petty conversion rate you have to work on multiple factors such as a landing page, font type, design, color combination, keyword density, image, etc. If you run some offer or discount on your product can rise -up your conversion rate. Also, a good landing page can increase 5% conversion, then your present conversion.

Sometimes your optimization may give you a negative result and some time good, but still you have to put your best effort in Optimization as organic traffic is the most powerful one you most look into, and the conversion rate also higher than other platform.

The conversion killing element is time, don't put your customer in a puzzle once they fall into your website. Set-up your sales funnel and according to your customer interest and demand, take help from analytic and work on that to get a simple way to customer for better conversion.

In India, nothing will happen till the moment customer won't trust you. Try to build the trust factor with the customer by providing guarantees, offers and great service. Also, if your product or service needs some documentation or formality then make it simple as it can be and process it faster.

Give multiple purchasing platforms with a different currency. A sales conversion needs lots of money and effort. If a user doesn't purchase something after surfing multiple pages, then may be the user is not getting the information what he is looking for.

Don't harsh your customer by providing wrong information or by opening multiple pop-ups or by run multiple ads on your website. It may force your customer to leave the website without any conversion.

Work for SEO and social media marketing as they are the basic source of user now a days.

Do needful for competitor analysis and online reputation management.

Consult with your website developer to improve website performance and loading time.

However, the market is changing so does the marketing technique. Keep your website updated, informative and user-friendly which is the real success mantra.
