1. Who owns domains registered with IX Web Hosting for paid and free?
All domains registered with IX Web Hosting, as paid or free, belongs to the customer. You can fully manage your domain or transfer your domains registration away at anytime.
2. What is the difference between a domain and a sub domain?
The difference between a sub domain and a domain name can be explained easily.
While a domain name is a full website address, totally independent of other domain names, a sub domain depends on a domain name. If for example "yourdomain.com" is your domain name, then http://yourdomain.com and http://www.yourdomain.com would be your domain name's address. A sub domain name would be a name *under* your domain name, something like "subdomain.yourdomain.com". Its address would then be: http://subdomain.yourdomain.com and http://www.subdomain.yourdomain.com. It can say anything you want instead of "sub domain" and the nice thing is that unlike a full domain name, a sub domain does not need to be registered - we will register it for you.
3. Can I have a subdomain such as "something.yourdomainname.com"?
Yes, you will be able to have your own sub domain, such as something.yourdomainname.com. A sub domain is basically a subdirectory or folder created inside your FTP area which is a fully operating Web site. The main benefit of a sub domain is that it doesn't require domain name registration and fees that are associated with a full domain name.
