How to park a domain

Domain parking enables you to register and reserve a domain name for future use. It is a good way to ensure that a domain name you wish to use in the future will not be registered by someone else in the meantime.

Follow the steps below to park a domain via the Afrihost Order Form:
  1. Go to the Afrihost Order Form.
  2. Click on the ‘Web Domains’ tab.
  3. Click on ‘Domain Registration’.
  4. Now select ‘Domain Parking’.
  5. Click on ‘New Domain’.
  6. Enter the domain name you’d like to register and park and click the search button.
  7. A list of available domain names will show on the right-hand side.
  8. Select your preferred domain name and click ‘Next Step’.
  9. Finally, you’ll be taken to your Shopping Cart. Click on ‘Checkout’ to complete the order.
