  • It will allow you to claim and get the domain name immediately on application.
  • If you already have a web host, obtain from them the names of their primary and secondary name servers.
  • The information can usually be obtained from documentation on their site usually under a category like "domain name" or "DNS" or "domain name transfer".
  • If you can't find it, email them.
  • You need that information to point your domain name to your website. After you buy your domain.
  • If you do not have a web host, you can always allow the registrar to park your domain name at a temporary website specially set up for you.
