Most web designers register web addresses for their clients, we chose to give the client the knowledge and the tools to do it for themselves. This way of working ensures you, the client, have the following:.

• The correct registrant details for the domain name
• Control over the domain, in case of breakdown between yourself and your web designer
• No admin fee for domain name registration
• Total transparency – you see the prices we would be charged, thus ensuring you are getting the best deal
• Renewal emails are sent directly to your email address, so you can renew your domain name registration as you chose

Choosing Your Domain Name

There are many places where you can register your domain name on the internet.
We recommend www.ukreg.com and this guide is written with UK Reg in mind.

Here you can check the availability of the domain name you require, using the text box on the right hand side of the page.

When choosing a name try and follow these guidelines:

• No spaces can be used in domain names – either join words together or
  hyphenate them
• Keep it as simple as possible, so the name is easily remembered
• If possible, use descriptive text, as this can help with search engine performance

For example: someone searching for ‘green tractors’ using google is more
likely to have the site www.greentractors.com returned, rather than www.
big-wheels.net.

* It is possible to buy more than one address and have them all go through to your main website.

Make a note of the domain name you have chosen
