Check Domain Name Availability
Each Lonex web hosting plan goes with a FREE domain name registration or FREE domain name transfer, i.e. with a free unique name for your website. To check whether the domain name you wish to get is available, simply use the search form below.
To get a quick response to your domain availability request, please make sure that you do not type any characters different from small letters, numbers and hyphens (-), since those are the only ones allowed to appear in a domain name.
Our special domain name offer includes:
FREE domain name registration/transfer (valid for .com, .net, .org, .info, .us or .biz TLD(s)) with our Personal, Business, Corporate and Enterprise plans.
FREE transfer of your existing domain name to our registrar and full management of its settings through the in-house built Lonex
Control Panel. As per regular domain name rules, a domain transfer service can be ordered for 1 year only. As soon as the transfer completes - we add 1 year to the domain's expiry date, thus extending its initial registration period.
A great variety of domain name extensions! For more details - review the Domain TLD Details table.
Multi-year domain name registration – reserve your new domain name for up to 10 years. See the multi-year pricing in the table below for more details.
Unlimited domain parking – register a cool domain name with Lonex and keep it parked (pointing to a parking page or to a real website) until you are ready to launch its contents online.
Various domain management options – lock/unlock status, edit Whois, DNS records update, Custom DNS Records (A, AAA, CNAME, NS, SRV, TXT and MX records) and many other domain control features.

Feature explanation:
Registrar-Lock – allows the domain owner to lock his/her domain name, in order to avoid unauthorized, or accidental changes to the domain name.
Transfer – means change of the domain registrar; usually 1 year is added to the registration upon successful completion of the transfer. Domain transfer fee is equal to the domain registration fee. In some caces, EPP authorization key, that must be provided by the current registrar is required.
Edit WHOIS – allows the publicly displayed WHOIS information of the domain name to be edited.
ID Protect – allows protection of the publicly available WHOIS information by replacing it with fictitious information.
Registration Period – various TLDs can be registered for different periods.
Single registration/transfer – this refers to the price of a 1-year registration/transfer for a particular TLD, purchased with a web hosting plan. For the majority of TLDs, the minimum registration period is 1 year. For the TLDs marked with "*" this period is 2 years.
Notes – displays special requirements for certain TLDs, as well as the dedicated Registration Agreements that must be observed in addition to the general Registration Agreement.

Registration Approval
Domain name registration is not instant and needs approval by the .UK registry Nominet.
There is no defined period for approval/rejection of domain registration requests.
Registration Period
The registration period for .UK domain names is 2 years.
Domain Renewal
Renewals are possible for 2-year periods only. A renewal cannot be issued until at least five (5) months
prior to the domain's expiration date and effects of a renewal do not occur instantly.
Example: You register a .UK domain on April 9, 2003, for two years. Then, on April 7, 2005,
you renew the domain for an additional two years. Your domain will then be scheduled to expire on April 9, 2007.
If, however, you do not renew your domain on April 7, 2005, it will be deleted on April 8, 2005.
The reason for this is that Nominet uses a non-real-time email-based system to make status changes in the .UK registry.
The combination of this email-based system and Nominet's policy on renewals means that we will be charged
for a renewal unless the name is deleted (via instructions in an email) prior to the end of the registration period
which is then in effect. As a consequence, if we do not receive your renewal request prior to one-day
before the end of the registration period, the deletion will be processed one-day before the end of the registration period.
Also, all .UK registrations are bound to the Nominet's Dispute Policy, available on the Nominet's home page
that shall be applied instead of the Uniform Domain Name Dispute Resolution Policy.
Domain Deletion
.UK domains, which are not renewed, will be deleted one day before the scheduled expiration date.

.CA domain names can be registered by Canadian citizens, individuals having permanent residency in Canada
and companies under the laws of Canada. Because of this requirement, additional contact details are required
during the registration procedure itself and that is why we have made a separate page as a step of the domain registration process.
This page allows you to choose the correct attribute from the list of options.
WHOIS Management
The registrant cannot change the WHOIS in order to transfer ownership from one person or organization to another -
this can be done through the .CA registry CIRA. However, it is possible to change the registrant's address, phone number
and other contact details by opening a ticket to the Customer Support staff from the Help Center section in the Web Hosting Control Panel.
Example: If a domain is registered to "John Smith" and the registrant wishes to change the address, this is not a problem.
However, if he/she wishes to change the registrant to "Peter Gibson", this is considered as transfer and the registrant must contact the .CA registry
CIRA for assistance.

in cases when the date of expiration is after that date (e.g. September 25th, 2008).
Example: If the name expires on Sept 14th, 2008, then a renewal request must be received by Sept 14th, 2008. If a name expires on September 25th, 2008,
the renewal request must be received prior to September 20th, 2008.

- A person or entity that provides professional services.
- Admitted to or licensed by a government certification body or jurisdictional licensing entity recognized by a governmental body that regularly verifies the accuracy of its data.
- In good standing with the licensing authority.
A standard .PRO registration involves a three-step verification process:

- The identity information provided and self-certified by the registrant is used to activate your name.
- The self-certified professional data provided by the registrant is randomly verified against an appropriate licensing or accreditation database.
Information required during the verification process:
- Name
- Profession
- Jurisdictional country
- Licensing authority
- License number
- A link to your licensing authority's website
Registration Requirements
During the registration process, registrants need to select the type of registrant and fill in some required information, as follows:
- Companies need to provide a reason for registration code number known as Kод Причины Постановки на Учет (КПП) and a Taxpayer ID number.
- Individuals need to provide a passport number and their date of birth.
Registrar Change / Transfer

Registration Requirements
During the registration process, registrants need to select the type of registrant and fill in some required information, as follows:
- Companies need to provide a Taxpayer Code and Registrant Country.
- Individuals need to provide their Identity Card Number and Registrant Country.
Registration Requirements
During the registration process, registrants need to fill in the following details:
- Legal Form of Registration (selectable from a drop-down menu)
- Legal Registration Number
Registration Requirements
As per registry policy, the SLD part of the domain (i.e. the part of the domain before .CO.ZA) can contain up to 30 characters in total.
Registration Requirements
In order to run a .MOBI site you need to meet several requirements, enforced by the .MOBI registry, aimed at facilitating the access to your pages through a mobile device.
- XHTML Mobile Profile - All pages in your .MOBI site must be encoded in XHTML-MP (Mobile Profile). This is required since many mobile devices still have problems connecting to a normally formatted web page. In case your website does not have a user agent recognition, you should at least direct the visitors to an XHTML-MP encoded page, telling them what device is needed to access your website.
- Second-Level Domain Site - All .MOBI websites must respond to an HTTP request to your web address without the "www" part (e.g. to my-site.mobi instead of to www.my-site.mobi). Researches show that a vast majority of the mobile Internet users find it particularly troublesome typing "www" each time they need to access a certain domain name, especially if their device is equipped with a numeric keypad.
- Use of Frames - You are not allowed to use framed redirections on your .MOBI website. Instead, all redirections should be done by HTTP 3XX (301, 302, 304, 307). You can easily make these redirects via an .htaccess file.
- URIs for Country Specific Sites – This is a recommendation rather than a requirement. If you wish to offer services to the markets of different countries, you should use the country identifier TLD as a third-level domain identifier and thus set up separate country-specific web addresses, i.e. jp.my-site.mobi, uk.my-site.mobi.
Registration Requirements
.COM.AU domain names can be registered only for a 2-year period.
