FAQ
Frequently Asked Questions About Domains
What is a domain name?
A domain name is what makes your site visible to the outside world. For example, our domain name is HostingPro.com, the address you used to get here. A domain name is where your online presence begins. These days, it’s possibly more important than having a phone number. With our instant domain search, you can check domain name availability and find the perfect name for your site.
What is the difference between a domain and web hosting?
A domain is an actual name or address people will use to navigate to your website. Web hosting is what powers the storage and back end of your site to make it functional. You can order a domain without web hosting, but you can’t purchase hosting without a domain name.
I already have a domain name, can I transfer it to Hosting Pro?
Absolutely! If you have already registered your domain with another provider, such as GoDaddy, you can use the form above to transfer it to Hosting Pro.
What is the difference between .com, .net, and .org domain endings?
In the earlier days of the Internet, you were limited to three top-level domains (TLDs), also referred to as domain extensions or domain endings. These were:
1 - .com (Commercial)
2 - .net (Network)
3 - .org (Organization)
However, times have changed and there are now hundreds of different TLDs, the most popular extensions being .biz, .us, .dev, .xyz, and so on. This gives you many options to choose from. While .com is the most popular domain extension, you are welcome to search for the extensions that work best for you

How do domain registrations work?
To register your domain name, you first need to check if it is available. You can use our search function to check the domain names that you’re interested in. If you find an available domain that you like, you can register it to own it. Registering a domain name means you will need to pay a yearly renewal fee, for example R99.00 per year for a .com extension. If you don’t pay this renewal fee, the domain name becomes available for registration again
Can I register more than one domain for my website?
Yes! You can register as many domains as you’d like for your website. For example, hostingpro.co.za is our primary domain, but we own many other domains that redirect to our website, such as hostingproinc.co.za
