Often referred to as a "web address", a domain name is a name that is entered into a computer, usually as part of a website or other URL, and then looked up in the global Domain Name System, which informs the computer of the IP address with that name. Domain names are hostnames that provide more easily memorable names to stand in for numeric IP addresses. They are basically pointers that direct visitors to a server, much as a license plate, once attached to a car, allows that car to be found by its unique number.

It is very important to establish a credible presence for your business or club on the internet, and the first step towards doing so is to choose and register an appropriate website domain name. As with most marketing, perception is the key, and the domain name should already tell visitors who you are, or what you offer.

While reflecting the name or purpose of your business or club, domain names should be as short as you can manage, and easy to remember. Choose a name that is easy to spell, since visitors may have to type it manually into their browsers.

Good domain names are becoming increasingly hard to register, what with so many of them having already been taken, and one sometimes has to be a bit creative when deciding on a name for one's website. We can assist with suggestions for this, as part of our complete domain name registration service.
