Though we suggest you purchase a web hosting plan when registering a new domain name (every purchase comes with a free .com, .shop, or .info domain for the 1st year*), you can proceed with the domain name only.
Using and managing your domain without buying or having a Z.com web hosting plan is possible.
For example, you may use our domains with other web hosting providers. Kindly reach out to your web hosting provider regarding how to set up your web hosting with our domain. Generally, using nameservers or A records, you may add or edit the information directly through your Z.com account.
