Buy a domain, .az registration, hosting, DNS, email. 166 Tech simplifies domain management.

What is a domain?

A domain is your website's address on the internet (e.g. 166tech.az). Users type it in the browser to reach you. Without a domain, you can't have a website (technically you can use an IP, but who would?).

How to choose a domain?

1. Pick a TLD

• .az — Azerbaijan business, local trust
• .com — international, universal
• .com.az — Azerbaijan commercial
• .biz — business alternative to .com
• .shop — online store
• .app — mobile app projects
• .io / .tech — tech startups

2. Choose the name

• Short (under 8 letters if possible)
• Easy to pronounce
• Simple spelling
• Match your brand
• Avoid hyphens and numbers

.az domain rules

Managed by the Government of Azerbaijan. To register:

• Legal entity: tax ID, registration certificate
• Individual: ID card
• Name does not need to match company name
• Term: 1, 3, 5, or 10 years

Domain vs Hosting

Domain is the address (166tech.az). Hosting is the server storing site files. Both needed. Domain costs $30-60/year, hosting $50-300/year.

Post-registration steps

1. DNS A record (point to hosting IP)
2. Email DNS (MX, SPF, DKIM, DMARC)
3. SSL certificate
4. WHOIS privacy
5. Domain lock (prevent theft)
6. 2FA on your account
