You can register a domain with us without buying hosting.
HOW
Search for the domain from the Client Area or website, add it to the cart, choose the registration period, confirm the registrant details, and pay.
WHAT YOU GET
The domain registered in your name, appearing under Domains > My Domains, where you can manage nameservers, DNS records, contact details, privacy and auto-renewal.
WHERE IT POINTS
By default, nowhere useful. You can:
Point it at hosting elsewhere by setting that host's nameservers Redirect it to another site Leave it dormant as a defensive registration Use our DNS and add records manually
FIRST THINGS TO DO
Enable auto-renewal Enable ID protection where supported Confirm the registrant email is current and monitored
WHY PEOPLE REGISTER WITHOUT HOSTING
Securing a name before the project exists Protecting a brand across extensions Registering names for clients Keeping registration and hosting deliberately separate
Check the renewal price as well as the registration price, particularly for newer extensions where the two differ substantially.
