  1. Why does AutoForward.com offer Domain Registration and Forwarding for such low prices?

    Because we have a commitment to the Internet community to bring Internet services that have been out-of-reach to the general public to a price point where almost anyone can afford to be on the Internet!!

  3. How does the free trial work?

    When you order Domain/Email Forwarding,  you will receive a free 7-day trial so that you can see how our services work.  We know you will love our service and will be charged after the 7-day period is over.  But, if you decide to cancel before the 7-day period is over, you will not be charged.

 

  1. What is a domain name?

    A domain name tells web browsers (and the computers they use) how to find your web site on the Internet. Our domain name is "AutoForward.com". Each domain name is assigned to a numerical IP (Internet Protocol) address by your host provider. Since people remember names better than numbers, the domain name translates this number into words: www.AutoForward.com.

 

  1. Why do I need to register a domain name?

    Most Internet providers offer you some web space on their own server for your web site. Most of the time, they look like this: http://www.yourisp.com/users/~youraccount/index.htm. In addition to having to explain the little squiggle mark (~ which is called a tilde) to your less net.savvy customers, this can prove cumbersome on business cards and letterhead, and it does not reflect the unique nature of your business or homepage. Registering a domain name for your business or organization is essential to your marketing efforts. A domain name gives your business a unique identity on the world wide web.  You can register a domain on the Register Domain page.

 

  1. How will I be able to tell if my desired Domain Name is already taken?

    Before registering a domain name you can check to see if your domain is available on the Register Domain page to see if your requested domain name is available. The domain request comes up with "no match" you will then be able to register that domain name.

 

  1. How much does it cost to register domain name?

    AutoForward.com offers domain registration at a significant discount from the competition. To see a list of our prices, please see the Register Domain page.

 

  1. Is the domain forwarding service available for non .com domains?

    Yes, over 35% of our customers are non-.com domains and many are international. Please see the Register Domain page to see where to register a domain.

 

  1. What will people see in the browser address bar when I use AutoForwarding?
  2. When people visit your site that uses AutoForwarding, they will always see your domain name in their browser address bar - they will not see your actual web site like other URL forwarding services do.  You can turn off this feature if you’d like.

 

  1. I would like to register my domain name. What nameservers should I use?

    Our DNS servers are:
    • ns1.AutoForward.com
    • ns2.AutoForward.com
    • ns3.AutoForward.com

    After you have registered and wish to change the nameservers for your domain, we will provide an interface for you to do so.

 

  1. What is the guarantee?

    If after using our Domain/E-mail forwarding service for seven days, you are not 100% satisfied for any reason, please cancel and AutoForward.com will never charge you. Unfortunately, domain registrations are non-refundable because AutoForward.com can not get a refund from the domain registry.


 

  1. Ok, so how exactly does this all fit together?
  2. Our fees work in two parts:  First is the domain registration:  $20 for one year, $35 for two years, $50 for three years, and $80 for five years.  Then, we also offer an additional services such as Domain/E-mail Forwarding for $19.95/year.  Forwarding will redirect websurfers directly to your site when they type in the domain name .  You can register a domain by itself or order Domain/E-mail Forwarding by itself - or order them together.
