Regarding Domain Names

Domain Names are unique names given to identify computer server names such as web servers or email servers on the internet. Domain names make it easy for users on the internet to access the server and remember the server that is visited compared to having to recognize a row of numbers or known as IP.
Top Level Domain Name is a series of words behind domain names such as .com (dotcommercial), .net (dotnetwork), .org (dotorganization), etc. There are two types of Top Level Domains, namely Global Top Level Domain (gTLD) and Country Code Top Level Domain (ccTLD). gTLDs are as stated above and ccTLDs are TLDs intended for each country, such as Indonesia with ID codes (co.id, net.id, or.id) or Singapore with SG codes (com.sg, net.sg, etc.)
At this time, Merekmu can only register gTLDs and ccTLDs such as .com, .net, .org, .biz, .info, .name, .tel, .mobi, .asia, .co.id, .web.id, .or. id, .sch.id, .ac.id, .my.id and .biz.id. But do not rule out the possibility in the future, Merekmu can register gTLDs and other ccTLDs.
WHOIS is basically a contact list record that is related to the domain name. Usually it contains all the contact information with the individual, organization or company that registered the domain, the domain registration time has expired, and the domain registrar.

Domain Name Registration Process

  1. Search for the domain name you want.
  2. If the domain name you are looking for can still be registered, then do the next step, namely confirmation that you will buy the domain name, and additional services that we offer.
  3. If you are not a member of your Merekmu , at a later stage, you are required to enter your details to be the owner of the domain name and create a membership of your Merekmu. Your details will become membership details.
  4. If you are already a member of Merekmu , then you do not have to enter details again, then you only need to provide your email address and password.
  5. Before you end the domain name registration process, you should check again the data that has been entered. We recommend this because domain names that have been registered cannot be deleted or canceled. If all the data and domain names that you want to register are correct and complete, you are welcome to end it and henceforth you will receive an email confirmation from Merekmu that the domain name you registered is being processed.
  6. If you register a domain name that ends with. ID, you must send the documentary noted below within 3 days.

You can only register as our member through www.merekmu.co.id. The data we need is your personal or company data, address, email and password you want.

The registration process for the gTLDs domain name through Merekmu only takes approximately 10-15 minutes. But for the domain name registration process, Merekmu takes approximately 72 hours.

If you register a domain name that ends with .ID, the registration process will take approximately 3 days to a week

If what is meant here is a domain name that has passed the process period, then this is not possible. Because domain names that have been registered cannot be re-registered by others. But if what is meant here is that the domain name is still in the process of registration, then it can happen. Because in this system, at the same time everyone can want the same domain name. But if you are the first person who wants the domain name, then the opportunity to have the same domain name is greater than the second person who also wants the domain name.

The method of payment in Merekmu is through bank transfer and via credit card.
 

The domain name that you have registered, you can use to get email facilities with your own domain name (eg pengurus@merekmu.co.id ), web hosting facilities ( www.merekmu.co.id ) and other facilities.

All the time the domain is active, you are the legal owner of the domain name and the domain name you have registered cannot be re-registered by the other party. However, if the domain name expires, and you do not renew the domain name, then it is not likely that the domain name you have registered will be retrieved by someone else.

The character length of the domain name that can be registered is 63 characters long and with a minimum of 3 characters. It can start and end with a letter or number, but it cannot start with a dash (-). A dash (-) can only be used after the first letter and functions as a conjunction of words, and may not be placed in positions 3 and 4 at the same time.

  1. Data ownership of the domain name, such as individual and company names, full address along with telephone or fax numbers and email addresses.
  2. Payment-related party data, such as name, and full address

Domain names that you have registered, whether they are typos or misspellings, cannot be canceled or deleted. This is because the Merekmu has processed the domain name data that you registered to the domain name registration database. For that we recommend to you, before double-checking all the information that you have filled in or the domain name you registered. If all data or domain names are correct, then register.

Regarding the Domain Name Registration Period

Of course, I can. You can register a domain name with a period of 1 (one) year on Merekmu , even if you are a new member.
You can extend the domain name registration period with different periods, i.e., starting from 1 year to 10 years. Before your domain expires, we will notify you to remind you that your domain has expired.
Yes. Before your domain expires, Merekmu will send you a good notification via email stating that it is time to extend the domain’s term. If within the specified time period you have not or cannot extend the domain period, then the possibility you will lose the domain name is very large.

Cannot. Merekmu only gives you a maximum of 10 years domain ownership. You can extend your domain again after your domain expires.

 

Website (Site) and Web Hosting

Website or site is a location on the internet that has access to all internet users and can exchange documents by connecting to one another in a network that is connected to each other through a communication network.
Is a place where someone can store data or documents on a web server and this data or document is connected to the internet in the hope that it can be accessed by others.

You can get hosting facilities with your domain name directly by logging into Merekmu.

 
If you have already registered a domain name and are ready to get web hosting services, then you are required to be able to choose the web hosting packages offered that are tailored to your needs. The ISP or web hosting company can provide:

 

  • The IP address number of the webserver that allows you to be able to connect and be accessed by others
  • Domain Name Server (DNS) Services
  • Website Design Services

Each ISP or web hosting company will provide different prices and conditions, for that you should choose in advance and adapted to your needs.

After you find information on https://www.merekmu.co.id , you can change your domain’s DNS server in your client account. Make sure your domain name is still in validity and active status.

 
IP Address is a numeric or numeric internet address, where this address can provide you convenience in accessing the internet. Every computer on the internet has a unique number that can be identified. If a computer does not have an IP address, then the computer cannot be accessed on the internet.
 
Merekmu members who have registered a domain name in Merekmu if you want to change the IP domain, please contact our customer service at support@merekmu.co.id. To speed up the process, include all information, such as domain names, sub-domains, IP addresses and others.
 

DNS

Domain Name System is a computer that is connected and has the responsibility to provide zone information for your domain name, change the domain name to an IP address and also has responsibility for the distribution of e-mail on the mail server that concerns the domain name.

When you register a domain name, the DNS that appears in the domain name is the first and second DNS names that are owned by Merekmu . You can replace it at any time. If you cannot change the DNS, please contact the ISP or web hosting. But first you have to set the domain name by giving limited access to the person appointed to change your domain’s DNS name.

Web hosting companies really need DNS information for your domain name. This is because if the DNS domain name is not given, then your domain name cannot be accessed because the DNS listed is still DNS Merekmu .

To get DNS with your domain name, you are required to register with the registration center. Members who want to have their own DNS name, can contact our customer service at support@merekmu.co.id. But you can also ask your ISP or web hosting for help.
 

Regarding Setting a Domain Name

Manage Domain itself is one of the facilities offered by Merekmu to its members to be able to manage their own domain names. What can be regulated here is the modification of domain name ownership, domain name administration, technical information from the domain name itself and even with this facility you can move the domain name that is registered to your own server or another ISP or web hosting company.

If you have registered a domain name through Merekmu, then only you yourself have access to make changes to the domain name. But if you make modifications to the domain name that there are some things that you do not know, then you can give limited access to other parties to help you make modifications. This grant of limited access can be changed through the “Client Area” in the section giving passwords to sub-users.

 

In the “Client Area” facility here, you can make changes as follows:

 

  1. You can arrange the granting of access to modification of domain names both whole and limited to other parties
  2. You can make modifications or changes to personal data or the company that owns the domain name.
  3. You can make changes to the administration data, i.e. the person who has the power to make fundamental changes in the transfer of domain names or other modifications related to your domain name
  4. You can make changes to the data of the technical part, that is, the person who has the power to make fundamental changes in the technical terms of your domain name.
  5. You can make changes to the payment section data, i.e. people who have power in matters relating to payment for your domain name.
  6. You can make changes to the Server Name or DNS domain name. Changes meant here are changes such as the transfer of domain names to other parties such as ISPs, web hosting or private servers.
You can change the password if you have entered into the “Client Area> Change Password” facility. In this facility, you can change passwords and provide passwords with full or limited access to certain parties to make modifications to the domain name.
 
You cannot change the username for the domain name. This is because changing the username is very sensitive. You can only make changes to the username if you transfer the domain name from another registrar to Merekmu.
 
If you forget the username and password for the domain name you have, then you can enter the “Set Domain Name” facility, then press “Request password reset”. Then after you fill in the domain name, we will send the password reset instructions to the administrative email address of the domain name.
 
You can categorize all your domain names in the same account. All of these domain names will be taken care of with the same username and password.
 
Could. You can just give your username and password to other parties to set your domain name. You can even choose to grant this access, which is full and limited access. This is to avoid bad intentions that can occur if you give access to others in full.
