A domain registration is the process of reserving a domain name for a set amount of time. Although once the domain is registered under your name or organization, you are considered the "owner," you are only the owner for as long as the domain name is registered to you. Most domains offer the option to register them for a maximum of 10 years, though many registrants choose to register domains for just 1 year at a time.
