By registering multiple popular domain extensions, .COM, .NET, .ORG, .BIZ, .INFO, .CA (for Canadian residents), you are making sure that no one else can register these domain names. You probably want to avoid that a competitor or an ill-intentioned individual confuses your customers by registering an identical name to yours with a different extension, and makes it point to his own website.<\/p>\n<p>If you are curious, you can start by making a <a title=\"whois\" href=\"http:\/\/funio.com\/domains\/whois\">WHOIS<\/a> to see what domain extensions are currently available and registered.<\/p>\n<p>Are some of these names available, or were they already taken? If someone has already registered some of these domains before you, unfortunately you have very little recourse to get them. But if certain domain names are available, ask yourself if it is important for you to protect your brand name, retain your traffic and avoid confusion.<\/p>\n<p>You will never be able to completely restrict other individuals to register similar names to yours (unless you have an outrageously large wallet for such a thing!), but you can certainly reduce risks by purchasing popular extensions.<\/p>\n<p><a title=\"Funio Domains\" href=\"http:\/\/funio.com\/domains\">Click here to register a new domain name.<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>For the upcoming weeks, Funio offers you the possibility to register .BIZ and .INFO domain names at $9.95\/year.
