Frequently Asked Questions
What is a domain registry?
A domain registry (or registry operator) manages and maintains the authoritative database for one or more top-level domains (TLDs). They are responsible for the technical operation of the TLD, including managing DNS infrastructure and coordinating with registrars.
What's the difference between a registry and registrar?
A registry manages and maintains the database for a specific TLD (like .com or .org), while a registrar is authorized to sell domain registrations to end users. Think of the registry as the wholesaler and registrars as retailers.
Can I register a domain directly with a registry?
No, most registries don't sell domains directly to end users. You must register through an ICANN-accredited registrar who has a relationship with the registry. The registrar then registers the domain in the registry's database.
How do registries make money?
Registries charge registrars a fee for each domain registration and renewal. These fees vary by TLD and are typically a wholesale price that registrars then mark up when selling to customers.
