Domain Names

Almost all activity on the Internet requires you to have a functioning domain name. We offer a full-service domain name registration service. This is available both to clients of our other services, and as a stand-alone service.

Consultancy

Choosing your domain name is crucial for the success of your organisation's online presence, but such decisions are often taken in extreme haste, without the benefit of experience in this sector. Our expertise is on hand to assist. We work with you on issues such as:

• Ensuring the name will match your audience (both linguistically, and geographically).
• Ensuring the name has no hidden meanings that may confuse or embarrass.
• Ensuring the name will assist with your search-engine-optimisation strategy.

We undertake investigations into availability, and can either register your domain, or negotiate domain transfers from willing sellers if the domain name is already registered.

Domain Registration

We work with registrars internationally to provide you with quick and efficient domain name registration service.

Domain Transfer

If you already have a domain name registered elsewhere you can transfer it to our management. And of course should you wish to transfer away we will assist with that.

Nameservers

We normally use our own nameservers to provide you with a resilient service pointing traffic to your webserver, email servers etc.

Larger clients may wish to use their own nameservers, and in such cases we can advise on DNS software to run, and on the network infrastructure needed to ensure resilience and redundancy in the case of local network outages.
