Step 2. Go to one of the sites that register these domain names e.g. Dnsau.com and click on "WHOIS" then check the chosen domain name is available.

Step 3. Go to a free DNS provider or your Webhosting company and get the domain setup on their nameservers. Note down the nameserver names and the IP numbers. make sure that the nameservers meet the requirement of being in different subnets or geographical locations. Then return to the registering site.

Step 4. Back at the registering site click on "APPLICATION". You will be presented with an application form. Use your proper name no "aliases" e.g. "marsman" otherwise the application will be rejected from the start. Email addresses you must give a domain address that is not a freemail address. All known freemail addresses e.g yahoo, msn, hotmail, 163.com, hotpop.com, lycos etc. on applications will cause the application to be rejected. If you are going to use a freemail address, do not apply as you are wasting you time.
