Domain Name Registration - Australian and International Domain Names

Having a domain name will make your company more recognisable and easier to find online.
If your business uses web and email addresses based on the name of your Internet Service Provider (ISP) such as

youremail@bigpond.com
or
www.bigpond.com/~yoursite

then your customers may have trouble finding you if you change service providers as your web and email addresses will also have to change. It also means you will have to let your customers know your new addresses and may have to change your stationery and incur other costs as a result.

Registering a domain name is basically the online version of registering a business name. It gives your company its own identity. Having a domain name registered also means that you will have the same web and email addresses no matter which service provider you are using.

A domain name must reflect your business name and cannot be a common word. It also shows people what type of organisation it is and also the country that it is located in. For example:

.com.au is a commercial organisation in Australia
.edu is an educational institution
.gov is reserved for government departments and organisations
.net is a network
.org is a non-profit organisation
.id is a personal domain for individuals.

For you to be able to use your domain name once it is registered you need to have it hosted on a server. We provide a range of Domain Name Hosting services from email only (for those who do not wish to have a website but would like to have email addresses that are recognisable by their customers), to fully secure merchant hosting and ColdFusion and database hosting.

If you already have a domain name registered you can move it to one of our web hosting servers by having it redelegated.
