Resources
The best resources for domains and hosting, ranked by importance. Each entry includes the web address, contact, a summary, and our note on why it matters.
#1
Wikipedia: Domain Name System
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Domain_Name_System
Contact: info@wikimedia.org
The foundational reference on how DNS works — background, history, and the technical references underneath.
Start here for foundational knowledge. The references at the bottom are often more valuable than the article itself.
#2
ICANN
https://www.icann.org
Contact: N/A
The body that coordinates the global domain-name system — policy, accreditation, and the root of the namespace.
When you need the authoritative source on how domains are governed, not a reseller's marketing page.
#3
Reddit (r/webhosting, r/domains)
https://www.reddit.com
Contact: N/A
Discussion forums covering every hosting provider and registrar. Real people sharing real experiences.
The most honest resource on the internet. People share what actually works, not what they're paid to promote. Search before posting.
#4
YouTube
https://www.youtube.com
Contact: N/A
Video tutorials and walkthroughs for buying domains, configuring DNS, and setting up hosting.
Visual learning at its best. For any practical setup task, a good tutorial beats a text description. Sort by views and check comments for corrections.
