Domain Names
ip21 offers a Domain Registration System that is highly automated so we register your domain names with no fuss. If you are interested in taking up, or hearing more about this service please e-mail us
Tips on choosing a domain name:
- Keep it short, keep it simple. To find your site people need to be able to remember your address and easily type it into their browser.
- Aim to register the shortest name that your customers and visitors will associate with your website.
- It is a good idea to register several similar domain names, particularly if you own a Trade Mark for a certain name. If possible register .co.uk, .com, .eu and .net. These are the most popular domain names and by registering all of them you can help to prevent cyber squatters registering a domain name you would wish to use, and losing valuable traffic.
- Also consider common typos. If you have a domain name that can easily be pluralised or misspelt consider registering those as well to stop traffic going elsewhere.
Register your domain now!
You must register as soon as possible, or risk getting stuck with “the-domain-name-that-no-one-wanted.net!”.
FAQs
Q How long will it take for my domain name to become active?
A Domains are registered as soon as you order them, however it can take between 24 and 72 hours for a domain name to become visable on the Internet as each DNS updates its database of domain names.
Q Do I own the domain name?
A Yes. Unlike some companies we always register the domain in your name or in your customers name if you are working on behalf of someone else.
