Registration fees are $85 per domain for a TWO year period.   You are able to register for between 2 and 10 years periods.  Following the initial two year period, you may renew for between 1 and 10 years.  Please review our rates for special discounts available.

Who 'owns' my domain name?

As the registrant, you will always retain the sole right to make changes to your domain name. At all times, you are in control of your domain name. You will be listed as both Administrative and Billing Contact on the registration and we will be listed as the Technical Contact only.  We hope you will choose us for your web hosting company. However, you are not obligated in any way, and may choose whoever you like for your web hosting.  If you have questions before forwarding your domain registration,  please let us know and we can assist you.  Should you eventually choose to host your site elsewhere, you can simply use the online domain change forms to switch your domain elsewhere.  

Do I have to host with The Net Now?

If you are not yet ready to proceed with a website, but would like to register a domain for future use on our servers or anywhere else, we will "park" your domain for free until you are ready to use your site.  You will only be required to pay for your domain registration.  You will not have access to a website or email until you notify us you are ready to use your domain and pay setup fees and hosting.  Please note, we do not offer domain name redirection or email with a parked domain.

If you simply want to take advantage of our low domain registration fees, but are hosting elsewhere, you will be able to change the technical and nameserver information after you have reserved and paid for the domain name.  The domain registration is NOT live....we must approve your domain first.   However, once it is registered, you are able to transfer it as you require.

Should you request web hosting with us by completing our hosting order form, all accounts are subject to our standard setup fee ($50 CDN) regardless of whether your domain is already registered elsewhere.  This one-time fee covers our cost to assign your new domain name to our nameservers, as well as setting up your webspace complete with e-mail addresses, cgi-bin, frontpage extensions, website statistics and various other features as required.

Special Hosting Offer:  
Clients who register their domain through The Net Now pay for one year hosting will receive a rebate on their webhosting fees of $20 CDN each year!   This hosting rebate will be given each year, for as long as you host with us!  More information available here.
