Questions

Am I eligible to register a .au domain name?

To register a .au domain name, you generally need to meet certain conditions that are specific to each individual extension. For example, you might need an Australian Business Number (ABN) or be an Australian citizen or resident. Specific requirements can vary depending on the type of .au domain you want to register. Visit the auDA website to learn more about the different .au domain names and the eligibility criteria required for each one.

How long can I register a domain name for?

Domain names can typically be registered for a period ranging from one to ten years. You can renew your domain registration before it expires to maintain ownership. It's worth noting that all domains ending in .au have the option of one to five year registration periods. 

What is the difference between a domain name and a URL?

A domain name is part of a URL (Uniform Resource Locator). The URL includes the domain name along with other elements like the protocol (http:// or https://) and the path to a specific page or resource on the website.

What is the purpose of a domain name extension?

A domain name extension, such as .com, .org, or .net, indicates the type of organisation or purpose of the website. Different extensions can also signify the country of origin, like .au for Australia.
