  Sure, you can register that domain by adding it via Store -> Domains in your blog’s Dashboard.

  However, note that it will be renovationbenetan.com without the www.

  We actually strip out the www. for your convenience.

  www is an old protocol from back when everything was under separate server hardware. www (www.example.com) was the web server, mail (mail.example.com) was the mail server, ftp (ftp.example.com) was the FTP server, print (print.example.com) was the print server, etc.

  These days, everything is run under the web server, making www. redundant and a waste of four characters.

  Please let us know if you have any more questions!
