I am planning to build my own hosting for my website but I don't have much information about Domain Name Service(DNS), I know how it works but I do not know who is responsible, Whom does Hosting companies ask to register domain names?
This is a complicated and expensive process, that will certainly cost many thousands of dollars to complete.
It depends on which Top Level Domain you wish to register, but the first step will very likely be gaining ICANN registrar Accreditation
You will then most likely need financial and business verification.
Once you have gained registrar status, you would then need the technical expertise to maintain your records with the root servers.
In order to register a domain for a website, it will be infinitely cheaper, easier and quicker to go one of the bulk domain registars.

How can I check if website can be viewed without getting blocked by firewalls like the ones in the schools or in the public places?
I want my website to possibly be viewed from everywhere.
I have Cloudflare DNS and an SSL Certificate from Let's Encrypt
Thank you!
I don't know what to try.
I hope you have only the best intentions with this 😬
I first want to point out, that there are many different scenarios of your site to get blacklisted/blocked. Which would reach from a school blacklisting you to a government DNS blocking your website.
In contrast there would be whitelisting e.g. the school deciding that the people in their network only can view this list of websites. In this case you could do very little to be reached from this network.
To circumvent the blockage of a website it normally requires the user to get around it e.g. by using a VPN.
That said, it seems to me that for a new site it would be most effective to not get blacklisted in the first place.

I have my first site at http://www.example.com/members/quiz.php?qid=My-quiz which queries a database.
I would like to display the exact content for each quiz under my second site: http://www.mysecondsite.example/quiz.php?qid=My-quiz
I am new to DNS so I know this is probably a simple question. What do I need to do on both domains to make this work?
You cannot solve this issue solely with DNS. With DNS all you can say that the IP address for www.example.com is the same as that for www.mysecondsite.example.
Your webserver has to understand that any requests for www.mysecondsite.example are actually the same as that for www.example.com and has to fulfil or redirect those requests appropriately. Depending on your webserver, search the manual for the topic on redirecting/forwarding requests.

Hello there I am currently with a host known as Site5 and they have a limit on how many "resource points" I can use. On this site, resource points are a measurement on how much hardware resources I have used.
The way they describe it in the links here state that 1 minute of CPU time = 1 resource point, and I have a daily limit of 250 points.
Since I've never used other web hosts, do other web hosts limit these sort of things?
Yes, most (if not all) web hosts do put limitations on hardware usage in some form or other. While I have never heard of it being done that way, after reading their documentation it appears to be an decent option.
I know other hosts, such as GoDaddy typically impose a hard limit but have "dedicated" resources to the site. For example, here's their grid for Linux hosting
What I have included here is what I'm used to seeing when determining hosted resources.

A newbie here, so please bear with me. I registered a domain with a big hosting company.
A few days ago, I noticed I started getting emails directly to my personal email with my full name. I started searching up my website and found a website who shows all my personal information. The exact full address where I live, my full name and my phone number.
Do personal information like that suddenly go all public when I register a domain, without my permission? A little bit worried if it's supposed to be like that, so I'm just asking.
When you register a domain, your contact information is published in the WHOIS service. You can use a WHOIS lookup tool and enter your domain name to see what the registration says. Anyone on the Internet can see the same thing.
Many domain registrars offer a privacy filtering service. They will obscure that information and put up their own name, address, etc. (Look up my domain, tangledhelix.com, for an example of what that might look like.) Some registrars will charge you for this, while others offer it for free or bundled with hosting or something else they sell.
Of course, it is too late to pull back the publication of the information now, but you can add a privacy shield service (if your registrar offers one) and stop the leakage from going further.

I plan to sell a book on Amazon and I'd like the book purchase to enable access for the buyer to a set of videos that support the book. Is there a way to get the order numbers for all the books purchased? Then I could ask the user to enter their order number and if I found it I could enable video access.
From what I can tell, the only way to do this is to become a "Professional Selling on Amazon" which costs $39.99/mo (as opposed to an "Individual Selling on Amazon", which costs per transaction and is not eligible for MWS) and request access to the Amazon Marketplace Web Service. This is an API that would give you the information you're looking for. There are other classes of accounts that have access to Amazon MWS (as noted on their FAQ page) but I don't believe any of them are free.
