Domain registration is basic and very important for each and every commercial or organisation website. Internet addresses can be complicated at best, and if you don’t have a business domain then your customers may never find you on the internet. A potential customer is far more likely to remember domains like yourcompanyname.co.uk. or for personal domains, yourname.co.uk or familyname.co.uk
This service is perfect if you want to protect a domain in order to add web hosting at a later stage. Web Hosting can be added to the domains at any point via account’s control panel after ordering. When you buy a domain it will be registered in your name, therefore you are the legal owner and not us.
Domain registration or transfers gets underway straight away after the payment has been received however it could take up to 24 hrs for DNS changes to fully propagate around the internet which means that full domain services might not be used until then. We will send you a welcome email after running some initial test, within a few hours you place a web hosting order.
