How to register a domain in cdmon
In this guide, we will show the essential fundamentals of what a domain is, how to register a domain from our commercial website, and why it is highly recommended that you consider registering one for your online presence.
What is a domain?
A domain is more than just a simple web address; it is the cornerstone of your online identity. In simple terms, a domain is the unique address that people use to access your website on the Internet. For example, the domain “www.yourdomain.com” is the gateway to your presence on the web. It is a way to mark your digital territory and make your site easily accessible to your visitors.
How do I register a domain with cdmon?
The first step to register a domain with us is to access our commercial website, cdmon.com. From this page, you can view all the information you need about our products and about cdmon. To register a new domain, go to the upper-left section, under “Domains”, and click on “Register domains”:
Next, a search bar will appear where you must enter the domain name you want to register—the one you prefer. For this tutorial, we will use the name “exampledomain.com”. Once you have entered the domain name, click on “Search” to check its availability:
After that, it will be shown whether the domain is available or not. If it is not available, it means that the domain is already registered by someone else, either with cdmon or with another registrar. It is important to know that a domain is unique, meaning only one domain with the same name can be registered.
If the domain is available for registration, it will be displayed as shown in the following image, where the registration price is shown along with the same domain name available under different extensions:
To continue with the registration, click on the pink “Add” button, and our website will move this domain to the shopping cart. You can click the same purple button as shown in the following image:
Clicking this button will redirect you to our website’s shopping cart. There, you can see the domain you have added, and the next step is to make the payment so the registration can be completed.
In the first step of the cart, you must verify the products you want to pay for. If everything is correct, click on “Next step”:
If you are completing these steps without being logged into our control panel, the shopping cart will ask you to identify yourself before continuing. If you are already a cdmon customer, simply enter your login credentials under “I am already a customer” and sign in. If you are not yet a cdmon customer, go to “I am not a customer” and register with us—it is completely free.
You will then be asked to enter the billing details for this purchase. You can use the details of a billing contact already created in your cdmon account, or manually enter new details for this registration:
In this same window, you must select the payment method you wish to use: bank transfer/deposit, Visa/Mastercard, direct debit, or PayPal.
· If you choose bank transfer/deposit, our bank account details will be displayed so you can make the payment.
· If you choose Visa or Mastercard, you will be redirected to the bank’s secure card payment gateway.
· If you choose Direct Debit, cdmon will issue a bank debit for the corresponding amount based on the selected billing period, and the renewal will be automatic.
· If you choose PayPal, PayPal payments include a surcharge of 1.8% + €0.35, corresponding to the difference in PayPal fees compared to Visa/Mastercard payments.
Finally, a window will appear indicating that an email has been sent to the domain owner’s email address to validate this purchase. You must access that email account and approve the message you received. It is important to note that this window does not always appear, as it depends on the domain extension you register:
Once you have validated the email, click on “Understood” to close this window. Finally, verify that all the information you entered is correct, and if so, scroll to the bottom and accept the terms and policies:
To finish, a window will open so you can complete the payment according to the payment method selected in the previous step. Below is an example of the window shown when selecting card payment:
After completing these steps, you will have successfully registered a brand-new domain. Once the payment is made, you can access your cdmon control panel and verify that it appears in your Domain List. It may take a few minutes to appear.
Why register a domain?
Registering a domain is a key strategic decision for your business or online project. Here are some compelling reasons to do so:
