DOMAIN REGISTRATION

Find a domain that fits your business.

Search for a domain, see what’s available and get it registered. If you’re not sure which extension makes sense, I can help with that too.

Start with the name.

Already got one? Ask me about connecting or transferring it.

Not sure which domain to choose?

Different extensions suit different businesses. These are some of the ones you’ll see most often.

.co.uk

A familiar choice for businesses mainly operating in the UK.

.com

Recognised worldwide and useful if your audience is broader than the UK.

.uk

A shorter option for UK businesses.

.org

Often used by organisations, communities and non-profits.

Search for your domain

Getting your domain sorted is simple.

01

Search for your name.

Enter the domain you want and see what’s available.

02

Pick what works.

Choose the extension that makes sense for your business.

03

Register it.

Complete the registration and manage the domain through your Client Area.

Already have a domain? No problem.

Already have a domain? You don’t need to move it just because you’re working with me. I can connect it to your website, sort the DNS or help move it into your hosting account if that makes things easier.

Need somewhere for the website to live?

If you’re registering the domain for a new website, I can handle the rest too. I provide website hosting, ongoing support and website design, so you don’t have to piece everything together yourself.

Website Hosting

Hosting for business websites, with someone you can actually contact when you need help.

Websites

Need the website too? I design and build websites that explain what you do properly and help turn visitors into enquiries.

A few things worth knowing.

Enter the domain you want into the search box. You’ll be taken to the registration portal where you can check availability, see alternatives and view the current price.

Yes. You can register a domain on its own. You don’t need to buy hosting from me at the same time.

Usually, yes. The exact process depends on the domain extension and where it’s currently registered. If you want to move one, get in touch and I’ll tell you what’s involved.

Domains need renewing to remain active. If one expires, the website and email using it may stop working and eventually the domain can become available for somebody else to register. Keep your account and billing details up to date and don’t rely on the expiry grace period.

Yes. Your domain and hosting don’t have to be in the same place. If you host elsewhere, the domain can be pointed to that provider using DNS.

Domains are registered to a named registrant for a set period rather than bought permanently. Make sure the registrant information is accurate and kept up to date.

Found a name worth keeping?

Search it, check it’s available and get it registered.
