A domain registrar is a company that manages the registration of domain names on the Internet. Domain names are pieces of Internet real estate that make it possible for each website to have a unique name. Most people are familiar with generic top-level domains such as .com and .net, but there are also top-level domains for specific countries. For example, .ca is the top-level domain name used in Canada and .us is used for the United States. Once a customer uses a particular registrar to register a domain name, only the customer or that registrar is authorized to make changes to the domain name.
Above.com is an accredited domain name registrar that offers country-specific and generic top-level domains. The company charges less than $10 for .com, .info, .net, and .org registrations, transfers, and renewals. For customers who want to transfer 100 or more domains to Above.com, the company also offers bulk pricing. They also offer a domain auction marketplace and a parking manager that helps website owners make money from their parked domains.
