Registering a .hr domain
There are two types of .hr domains: free and paid domains.
DIFFERENCE BETWEEN A FREE AND A PAID .HR DOMAIN
A free .hr domain can be registered by all legal entities (companies, associations and other legal persons) and self-employed natural persons (tradesmen, medical doctors, attorneys, artists, etc.) based in the Republic of Croatia.
The user has a right to one free domain which they can register through an online registration system at: https://www.dns.hr/portal/register
Paid .hr domains can be registered by all legal and natural persons based in the Republic of Croatia which hold an “OIB” (Croatian Personal Identification Number), as well as legal persons based in the EU which hold a VAT ID.
You can register a paid .hr domain here.
RULES FOR NAMING FREE .HR DOMAINS
The name of a domain pertaining to a legal person must contain its registered name, its shortened registered name, an acronym of its name or an abbreviation containing the syllables of a multi-word registered name.
The name of a domain pertaining to a self-employed natural person must contain their registered name, their shortened registered name, an acronym of their name, an abbreviation containing the syllables of a multi-word registered name or an indication of their activity, as well as their first name, last name or full name.

How can I check how many users I have on a cPanel server?

Which domain names are available?
A domain name is arbitrary and you can use any name you prefer, as long as a domain with that name hasn’t already been registered. You can check the availability of your preferred domain here.
What is DNS?
In simple terms, we could describe a DNS as a domain address book. Just like you would use an address book to look up information related to a particular person or company by name, the same goes for domains, since they also have an “address”. When you type our address mydataknox.com in your browser, your computer uses DNS to retrieve the data about the IP addresses linked to our domain. Afterwards, your computer requests the IP address of our web server, which, finally, sends the web page to your browser.
To summarise, DNS connects symbolic domain names, such as the mydatakno.com domain, with the IP address of the server where the domain-related content is located.

The point is for the domain to describe you or your activity in as few characters as possible.
What is a nameserver and what is it for?
In simple terms, we could describe a nameserver as a domain address book. Just like you would use an address book to look up information related to a particular person or company by name, the same goes for domains, since they also have an “address”. When you type our address mydataknox.com in your Internet browser, your computer uses DNS to retrieve the data about the nameserver containing the IP addresses linked to our domain. Afterwards, your computer requests the IP address of our web server, which, finally, sends the web page to your browser.
Why do I need a domain?
In the world of business, having a domain has become just as common as having a telephone number. If there is no domain name displayed on your company’s advertising and business cards, the clients that prefer to browse products and services online, which is widely spread nowadays, might skip your content if they are unable to easily find that information. Nowadays, a registered domain and a high-quality website is a business priority, since it’s a very cheap way to present a company name and information to the general public in a way that is simple and quick.
Individuals also want to have their own domain for private or family websites and various activities, but often just to be able to create a private e-mail address on their own domain. If you’re an author, artist, activist, volunteer, or if you perform another kind of activity under your name, registering a domain that carries your full name will create a unique address that you can use for promotion.
A good domain name and a related e-mail address inspire confidence in users, so it’s quite obvious that an imaginary company “My Company Ltd.” would use a domain such as mycompany.com for their websites and an e-mail such as info@mycompany.com for communicating with their clients.
How do I manage my dedicated server?
Depending on the selected operating system, you can manage server settings using the Remote Desktop (Windows) or SSH (Linux). You can also install a web hosting control system, such as cPanel or CentOS Web Panel. You can access basic options, such as starting, restarting, stopping, naming the server, etc. through the MyDataKnox user site.

How long does a domain transfer last?
The duration of a domain transfer can be divided into two groups:
.hr i com.hr domains
The transfer of these domain extensions is the quickest. Prior to the transfer, the current registrar of the domain must unlock it for transfer, and an order for transfer must be placed with MyDataKnox. After the payment is complete, you’ll receive an e-mail containing a link for transfer confirmation. As soon as you click on the link in the e-mail and confirm the transfer, it should be executed in a matter of minutes.
.com, .net, .org, .biz, .info and other extensions
The transfer of these domains takes 5 to 7 days.
Prior to the transfer, the current registrar of the domain must unlock it for transfer and request an EPP authorization code which enables the transfer. After you’ve received the EPP code, you can place a domain transfer order with MyDataKnox. After the payment is complete, you’ll receive an e-mail containing a link for transfer confirmation. As soon as you click on the link in the e-mail, the process of transferring the domain from your previous registrar to MyDataKnox will start. It usually takes up to 7 days for the transfer to be completed.
