Frequently Asked Questions

---

• How do I register a domain name?

  Log in and search for a domain name. When you find a domain name you want that is available, select the check box next to it and click "Add to Cart".

  Select any services you want to add to your domain name. Double-check the contents of the shopping cart to make sure it contains the items you want to purchase, then click "Checkout Now". Select the "Terms and Conditions" check box and click "Submit Order".

  If you choose to pay by "Bank Transfer - Nigeria", follow instructions displayed on the invoice after you have ordered. The bank transfer must reach us within 2 days of purchase, orders are processed same day payment is made.

  Should you order and pay online, your order is processed automatically.

• Will my domain name be live on the Internet right away?

  Your domain can be live on the Internet in just minutes. (Note: External networks require a few hours for your domain to be live worldwide.) When you purchase your domain name, our systems send your name to the registry so your order is processed right away.

  You can get to work immediately. Our system automatically sets you up with your own Crea8Host account and access to the Control Panel, where you can manage your domain settings, and setup your web page and email accounts when purchase with any of our hosting packages.

• I searched for a domain name yesterday and it was available. Today, it says it's taken. Is that possible?

  Unfortunately, yes. Good domain names get snatched up quickly. That's why it's wise to register one you like as soon as you find out it's available.

• Do my domains renew automatically?

  We renew domains automatically at the end of your term. Please ensure your payment is made prior to expiry date so as not to lose your domain name. You can manage domain renewalin the control panel.

• Can I start building a website when I register my domain?

  With each new domain, you would require a hosting plan to setup your files and folders.

• What if I change my mind, or spell a name wrong. Can I get my money back?

  No, all sales are final, so please double-check before finalizing your purchase.

• Is there anything I can do to protect my domain names from expiring?

  Yes. We offer Auto Renew, which renews domain names before they expire. You can set Auto Renew at an account-wide level or for individual domain names.

• What is domain name renewal?

  When you register a domain name, you gain exclusive rights to that domain name for a period of time but not forever. It's more like a lease than a purchase. In effect, renewing extends your lease on the domain name.

• How do I renew a domain name?

  Log in and click "My Account". Click "Registered Domains". Click the domain name you want to renew. Click "Add Years". Use the dropdown menu to select the number of years you want to renew, and click "Checkout Now". Click "Submit Order".

• When can I renew a domain name?

  You can renew a domain name almost any time and you can extend the expiration date up to 10 years from current expiration date.

• Why is it important to renew my domain name before it expires?

  The registry allows a short period of time to renew at your normal registration price, but then they raise the price considerably, and if you don't pay the grace period redemption price they delete the name. Once the name enters the deletion queue, we lose the ability to retrieve it for you. You have to compete for it on its deletion date, and if you're able to regain it, it may be expensive. We strongly recommend renewing your domains well in advance of their expiration dates to avoid the frustration and expense of this process.
