Purchasing a Domain and hosting is one of the best choices one can make. Domain is simply your address where others can find you online. Hosting is the space where you store your files associated with a particular domain. These files might include website, software, documents, music, videos etc. The answer is no. You can purchase a domain and hosting when you want to get business personalized emails eg info@xyzb.com , mary@effh.org etc. These personalized emails help your business in creating a professional look to the outside world.

is it safe buying a domain in Kenya ? The answer is a big YES. In fact, always make sure the domain and hosting is registered under your details (that is Name, Email and Phone number) ; never allow a developer or a hosting company lie to you that they will register the domain and hosting for you. Let them help you do it or else ensure they register them using your details.

If the domain is not under your contact information, you are not the legal owner.

How do you verify whether the domain has been registered under your details? Use the following tools. Simply type in your domain name and they will show you the legal owner.
