domain registrar

A domain registrar is a company authorized to sell and manage website domain names—those addresses like example.com that people type into their browser. They handle the registration process, ensuring your chosen domain is unique and linked to your website’s server. They also maintain important records called the DNS (Domain Name System), which help direct internet traffic correctly. Essentially, a domain registrar acts as the gatekeeper for your website’s address, allowing you to claim, update, and renew your domain name so visitors can reliably find your online presence.
