A Domain name creation and registration is one of the first actions that your web host will execute.  When visitors access your website for example, www.yourdomainname.com, you appear to be a stand-alone server and not part of another system.  This is because each SoftNet Development Hosting Site is individually registered with Network Solutions and has its own name and IP address.

The number of registered Domains on the Internet has reached unbelievable numbers.  This is mostly due to the World Wide Web and its ability to be available to anyone in the world at any time of the day.  Each one of the domains must be different to ensure that when someone types in a URL (Universal Resource Locator) they will be connected with the right computer.  An organization called Network Solutions is responsible for keeping track of issuing all those names.

The Network Solutions agency is owned by a company called VeriSign, Inc. in Herndon, VA.  At present, each domain name costs $50.00 to set up and $35.00 a year to maintain.  SoftNet Development can do nothing to waive this necessary registration fee.  However, we are able to take care of all the administration for you to ensure that your domain request is processed efficiently and correctly.  After your domain is registered, it is owned by you, not SoftNet Development, and can be sold, transferred, etc. in accordance with Network Solution's policies.
