What is a virtual domain?

A virtual domain is the base URL of the domain name. Examples include your domain.com, omninethosting.net, and ams.org. Virtual domain names are not just limited to .com, .net, .org, or .edu domain extensions. International domain names are also virtual domain names, such as omninethosting.uk

What is a Top-Level-Domain (TLD)?

TLD stands for Top Level Domain. This includes any domain names which suffix is .com, .net, .org, or .edu. Therefore, international domain names are not TLD's.

Does Omninet.Net host foreign domains?

Absolutely. omninethosting.net currently hosts over 64 different domain name extensions. However, it is  important to understand that non-TLD domain names will not be registered by omninethosting.net. You will need to take responsibility for registering or transferring non-TLDs to our servers.

Will I be able to access my domain name with or without the www?

Yes, all clients can access their website with and without the "www". In other words, you can access your website at www.yourdomain.com or just yourdomain.com, both of which are the same website. While this may seem somewhat unimportant, many would be surprised at how many people exclude the "www" and how many providers do not provide this service. Offering both options ensure you do not loose any visitors to your website.

Can I have multiple domains point to the same website?

Yes. This service is commonly referred to as "multiple domain name pointing" and allows you to have as many domain names as you wish point to the same website on your account. Below are a couple examples:
http://www.omninethosting.net
http://www.omninet-hosting.net
As you can tell from these links, the two websites are exactly the same. This should not be confused with having different domains point to different websites all on the same account, which is discussed below. There is a one-time $25 set-up fee for setting this up.
