 Who or what is a domain registry?
A domain name registry, is part of the Domain Name System (DNS) of the Internet and is involved with the process of converting domain names to IP addresses. It is an organisation that manages the registration of Domain names within the top-level domains for which it is responsible, controls the policies of domain name allocation, and technically operates its top-level domain.
Each name space has a different registry operator. Below is a list of common registries that we use for our services.
