Generally speaking, people use domain names to help personalize their online presence. This often takes shape in the form of a personalized e-mail or web address. For example, domain names are needed:

• If you want to have an e-mail address that allows you to express your personality or reflect your company's name, and not a generic one such as, john29665@industrymail.net
• If you want to create a website or blog that has a name of your choice, rather than one provided by your service provider's hosting service such as: http://perso.ganditutorial.myisp.com

Surprisingly, domain name management does not need to be technical, and anyone can step out of the crowd and let their individual voice be heard. In just a few easy steps at Gandi.net, and you'll be up and running!
