International domain registration in foreign countries

I once wrote an article called "Do not register the domain name in the country", the discussion does not use the domestic domain name registrar to carry on the domain name registration, does not even use the domestic website inquiry domain name, after I found has many people to leave a message or sends the mail to consult, today, I will introduce how uses the Foreign service to register the domain name.

　　First, the premise condition

To apply for a credit card, it is best to apply for PayPal, so that we can pay, recommend the use of China Merchants Bank's credit card, support the international payment of dollars, the credit card also supports RMB repayment of dollars (phone call to recruit Strider Miss can set up). Use this credit card to apply for an international PayPal account. PayPal is the reason to apply for a more secure payment, because PayPal to pay the user's rights and interests protection is good, such as illegal deduction can be a complaint and refund. In addition, if you do not apply for credit card, only PayPal can also be, through some channels (such as Taobao) can apply to the U.S. dollar recharge PayPal.

　　Second, the choice of domain name registrars

Domain name registration in foreign countries, do not look for subordinate agents registered domain name, directly to the ICANN top agent registration, the proposed registration of COM domain name, nothing to register CN domain name. Encounter a U.S. dollar domain name registration (such as info domain often do this) do not buy, this low-cost domain name will be a large number of malicious illegal registration and malicious use, and the other domain name and host space not to buy in a place.

Personally, I am using godaddy registered domain name, use the discount code registration domain name (search godaddy coupon or godaddy promo), the preferential price is generally 7 dollars a year. Its DNS is more stable, I used a few years have not been the phenomenon of parsing errors.

Of course, the shortcomings of GoDaddy is also some, is the domain name forwarding IP for a long time, domestic can not use its domain name forwarding service, its virtual host IP is often blocked. In addition, we recommend PayPal to the GoDaddy payment, do not use credit card payment, I have used credit card payment, but some time ago GoDaddy said to investigate my domain name registration information is true, and directly from my credit card deduction of 10 U.S. dollars "investigation fee", this is very excessive. Therefore, we should use PayPal payment, and do not bind the automatic payment godaddy.

In addition to GoDaddy, Namecheap is also a good domain name to buy suppliers.

　　Third, domain name registration time

According to some SEO, the domain name registration fee to renew the longer time is conducive to SEO. So, for those good domain names that you certainly won't give up, a one-time registration of five or ten years is a good choice. For ordinary domain names, you can renew the fee once a year, pay attention to the info domain name Although the first year cost is 1 U.S. dollars, but the following price will increase to 10 U.S. dollars.

　　Four, the domain name function

I have only used the domain name of GoDaddy, I will say what the function of GoDaddy domain name registration, currently registered a domain name, you can get a free self-help blog with advertising space, a 250M space with advertising free virtual host (Windows/linux optional, Can bind infinitely many domain names, can use 10 MySQL database, a 25M free mailbox account, unlimited forwarding mailbox, free Domain name Control Panel (total DNS controls), free Domain name state change notice, free domain name lock, But the above mentioned the free virtual host IP has been blocked a lot of, want more stable space, suggest not to use GoDaddy space.
