A domain name is just like your street address or postal address but on the Internet. It tells people where to find your website.

With all the good domain names being snapped up, now is the time to get your name before someone else does! The great thing is that you do not need to get it hosted straight away - you can just get it for safe keeping. You can also renew your domain name registration with us - just make sure you do it BEFORE your domain registration expires.

There are no regulations on a .com name and you can register this domain name from one to ten years. You do not need to own a business name of the same either. com.au domain names come under NEW Australian Government regulations that make it much easier to register an .au name.

• All registered for two years in your name - not ours!
  
• com.au and net.au names are only $49.00 with annual hosting

There are many things to consider before you choose your domain name. Many companies/individuals own more than one name to direct traffic to their main site, so do not limit yourself to only one. You should also consider ALL the extensions to protect your brand as a competitor can easily purchase the .net name, the same as your .com and your customers may get confused if they rank higher than you!

• It is easy to spell over the phone?
• Will it easily fit in your advertisements, especially the Yellow Pages directory or on your business card?
• Never use zero as this can be confused with the letter - 0 (zero) - O (letter)
• Once you have decided on the name, are the other extensions taken? They may just be for a pornography website!
• You can use hyphens (dash) in your names and even double hyphens - 'your--domain--name.com'
• All Australian .au domain names requires an ABN/ACN/BN to order
• There are no regulations for registering .com/Net/.info/.biz names however, most good names have already been taken

• If you do not renew your domain name, it will be locked for 45 days and then more than likely, a cyber-sitter will register it and charge a fortune to sell it to you
• The email address you give when you register your domain name will be visible to the world which means Spam!
• Au names can be registered for only two years at a time and cannot be renewed any sooner than 90 days before renewal date
