Domain name search FAQ

What are domain name extensions (like .com, .net, .org)?

Domain extensions are the little endings that come after your website name, like .com, .net, or .org. They’re also known as top-level domains (TLDs). Traditionally, .com is the most popular, while .net and .org are common for networks and organizations. Today, there are also hundreds of new TLDs—from .shop to .online and .ai—that let you get creative and more specific.


When you use a domain search tool, it doesn’t just check your name with one extension—it checks across multiple extensions so you can see all the options available in real time.

Can I search who owns a domain name?

Yes—you can use a WHOIS domain lookup to see who owns a specific name. This type of search tool pulls up information from the registrar, such as the domain owner’s details, when the name was registered, when it expires and more.


Keep in mind, sometimes owners use domain privacy services, so not all contact info is public. A WHOIS lookup is separate from registering a domain—it’s just for checking ownership info. Reliable search tools for domain lookup make it easy to see what’s available and what’s already claimed.

How much does a domain name cost?

Domain prices can vary quite a bit. A standard domain name usually starts around $10–$20 per year, depending on the extension you choose (like .com, .net, or .co). Some names are considered premium domains—short, catchy, or high-demand words—and those can cost hundreds or even thousands.


Keep in mind there’s usually a renewal fee each year to keep your domain active and pricing can shift based on availability. The good news is that with Wix, after running a domain name search, you’ll always see the exact cost, so there are no surprises when it’s time to buy.

Do I need an LLC for a domain?

No, you don’t need an LLC or any kind of formal business registration to buy a domain. Anyone can register a domain name, whether it’s for a business idea, a side project or even just for personal use. All you need to do is run the name through an availability tool  like Wix’s to see if it’s free, then register it.


That said, if you’re starting a business, forming an LLC later can give you extra legal and financial protection—but it’s not a requirement for owning a domain.

How to search for free domains?

When you choose an annual Wix plan, you get a free domain name for the first year. To conduct a domain search and see which are available for free, simply use the Wix domain search tool. Enter the domain you want into the domain name search bar and the tool will show you all of your available options. You can also explore all different kinds of domain extensions like .com, .net and even country codes. Once you find the domain that works for you, remember that it's free for the first year with your Wix plan. So you can easily manage your website, (free) hosting and domain, all under one roof.
