FAQ

• What is a domain?

  A domain is an essential component of a website and plays an important role in its identification and findability on the Internet. It serves as a unique address, so to speak, under which a website can be reached and can be found and accessed by users.
  
  A domain consists of a name and an extension, such as ".ch" or ".com".
  
  By choosing a meaningful and easy-to-remember domain, companies and individuals can strengthen their online presence and establish their brand. Find your desired domain at Swizzonic, ICANN's officially accredited registrar with the largest domain portfolio.

• What is a domain needed for?

  A domain is an important prerequisite for setting up your own website or online presence. It serves as a unique address on the World Wide Web that visitors can use to access the website.
  
  With a domain, it is possible to use an individual e-mail address with your own domain name, which enables professional and reputable communication.

• Can I buy/ register more than one domain?

  Of course. You can register as many domains as you like, as long as they are still available and not taken. To find out whether your desired domain is still available, simply enter the desired domain name (e.g. swizzblog) here.
  
  If you already know which domain extension you want, enter it directly (e.g. swizzblog.ch).

• What is a subdomain?

  A subdomain is a subdivision of a main domain and is used to identify and organize different areas or functions of a website. It is formed by a prefixed name and a dot before the main domain (e.g. blog.swizzonic.ch).
  
  Subdomains allow you to structure content thematically and offer users of your site better orientation and easy navigation. In addition, they also make it possible to manage and market different aspects of the website separately.
  
  Although subdomains are technically independent of the main domain, they still retain a certain context and therefore represent an extension of the main website.

• How can I find out who owns a domain?

  The Whois directory provides information on the current holder of a domain. However, this information has recently been restricted for data protection reasons. As a result, not all details about the domain owner are available.
  
  However, to try to contact the holder, you can contact the registrar's support team and ask them to put you in touch with the holder.
  
  Or use our service for "Negotiations for already registered domains". You can find more information here.
