Domain registration in Kenya.<\/strong>
\nA domain name is very important to any company since it commands online presence of a company.
\nTo register a domain name in Kenya is very simple and every company requiring online presence can registers their domain names.
\nThe initial stage is to come up with a domain name e.g. .or.ke, co.ke, .ac.ke, .go.ke etc. depending with the nature of your company.
\nAfter choosing your domain name, submit the domain name registration request to the registrar with the details like desired domain name contact name, email addresses and payment information. Once you have submitted this information the registrar will initiate the domain name registration process. This information is then sent to the registry which add the domain name to the master server and it notifies all other servers in the internet where your website is stored.
\nThe charges of registering a domain in Kenya varies with different registrar and therefore there are some of the factors to consider when registering your domain and choosing the registrar
\n\u2022 Price<\/strong>
\nThe price you pay for your domain can vary greatly between registrars. When comparing prices, take into account the other services included by the registrar, their customer support, testimonies, etc.
\n\u2022 Certification<\/strong>
\nYour chosen registrar should be ICANN accredited. ICANN maintains a list of accredited domain registrars. If the domain you have chosen is a reseller of an accredited registrar, they should let you know which registrar they represent.
\n\u2022 Terms<\/strong>
\nTake the time to read and understand your domain registration terms. Pay attention to ownership clause and other terms of condition.
\n\u2022 Time<\/strong>
\nDo not register your domain for more than one year in the beginning. That give you time to evaluation your registrar before further commitment, as well, allowing you time to evaluate your domain name in case you wish to use a different domain name.
\n\u2022 Delay<\/strong>
\nA domain name registration generally takes no more than 48 hours.
\n\u2022 Transfer Policy<\/strong>
\nYou should be able to transfer your domain to another registrar without any restriction other than those enforced by ICANN. Check the registrar for other restrictions and curbs.
\n\u2022 Customer Support<\/strong>
\nCheck if phone, chat or email support is available.
\n\u2022 Management<\/strong>
\nDoes the registrar provide a domain name management panel for you to manage your own domain name? Or do all changes have to go through them?<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
