Domain name registration / transfer Information

While we are a fully Canadian website, registrants with internet protocol (IP addresses) in other North American countries, such as the United States, may still register .ca domains, .com domains, or any other unique TLDs they need with our domain registrars.

1. Check to see if your Canadian .ca domain name idea is 'Available' by entering your good domain name choice in the "Register a Domain" box in the upper right corner of the 4GoodHosting website and select ".ca." Please make sure that your .com domain name, or any other, is free of typos before beginning the domain search. If you don't yet have the right name, you can use our domain name generator.

2. From the dropdown menu, click the search bar, and within a few seconds, you will see if the particular brandable domain name is already taken.

3. If it isn't currently registered when you check the domain search, you can click the checkbox that says "Available! Order Now!" next to the .ca domain and click "Add to Cart."

4. Upon checkout and payment confirmation, your new brand domain will be registered with the domain name registration details that you have entered.

5. If you wish, you can also register your new domain name for multiple years at a time. You can subsequently log into your 4GoodHosting client area portal to check the status of your best domain(s), update name-server information, add new extensions, disable annual "auto-renew," or obtain transfer codes.

Note: Your full domain name is free when you order any Canadian web hosting package, with quarterly, biennial, or annual fee billing, and remain a hosting customer for at least 12 months. Just use our free domain registration tool for your corresponding domain name.

NO! When you signup for a Web hosting plan, 4 Good Hosting will register a .com, .net, .org, .biz, .info or .ca domain name for you. This service is completely free for Canadian & United States Residents, thanks partly to the global internet managed by the Internet Corporation for Assigned Names and Numbers (ICANN).

Yes. We are now capable of transferring top-level domain names .ca, .com, .net, .org, .biz and .info domain extensions. We will add one year to your existing domain name at no extra cost. You can also keep your domain name where it is, and simply transfer the DNS to 4GoodHosting. But with any Business or Advanced Web Hosting Package, you get your Free Domain Name or Free Domain Transfer, so you would be crazy not to register. To transfer a free domain, Click Here!

Domain privacy is a wonderful feature for those that don't want to publicly identify themselves as the owner of a particular domain name (.com, .net, .org, .info, .ca, .etc.). 4GoodHosting now offers domain privacy for free on .ca domain names, and with a $5 fee for all other domain types (.com, .net, .org, .info, .etc. ). What we will do is manually update your name and address record with 4GoodHosting's domain privacy message, and modify the settings further so nobody will see your online identity on the public "whois" domain information websites.

No. 4GoodHosting will provide new domain names and domain transfers at regular prices for all reseller and add-on orders, but our pricing is some of the best in the domain name industry.

Yes, you can just purchase a domain name or website name without web hosting. Please see pricing here on this page before taking the first step.

NO! 4goodhosting.com performs new registrations on your behalf, and your perfect domain belongs to you. You have 100% ownership of the free domain name.

4goodhosting.com strives to provide the best web hosting at competitive prices. If you wish to switch to a competitor you're free to do so at any time, although you may take the domain name with you.

Just sign-up with your payment information on an Advanced or Business Package on quarterly, semi-annual, or annual billing cycles to get your free domain on our Advanced and Business hosting packages.

Absolutely!

For those looking to climb the search engines results pages to get more clicks, we provide search engine optimization (SEO) services that go beyond just using the right keywords. We also know that any network administrator wants to prove their credibility, which is why we offer low-cost SSL certificates, thanks to our partnership with GeoTrust.
