What is a domain name?
A domain name is also called URL or web site address.
This is the unique name that your customers will type into
the address bar of a browser (such as Internet Explorer
or Netscape) to access your web site information. For example:
yourdomain.com, mymortgagedomain.net. No other person or
company will have the same address as you.
How do I know if my domain name is already
taken?
To check and see if your domain name is taken, use our
free domain
name search tool. Type in any name to check it's availibility;
if available, it will tell you and give you the option to
register it. If the domain name is already taken, you can
choose a different name. You can search as many times as
you like.
What details do you need to register a domain?

Once registered can I use my domain name immediately?
Once you get confirmation of your successful registration,
your domain name is ready to use.However, due
to the nature of the DNS system it can take up to 48 hours
for all the DNS servers across the Internet to "learn"
and be able to "see" your domain.
What is URL forwarding and how does it work?
URL Forwarding allows you to redirect or 'point' your
domain name to another location. Most often, this is used
if you own multiple domain names and want to 'point' them
to the same website.
How do I setup URL forwarding?
When you register a domain name with iMortgageSites.com,
you get free URL forwarding. After a successful registration,
you can login to your account and setup your website forwarding
address. If you would like us to do this for you, please
send an email to 
with your login details at your domain registrar and your
iMortgageSites client id.
What is a cloaked URL forwarding?
It's similar to regular URL forwarding, except that your
URL will never change in the address bar. When you use cloaked
URL forwarding, your domainname.com forwards to your actual
URL, but yourdomain.com stays in the address bar.
