What
is a domain name?
A
domain name is your internet web address of your web site. Like home/office addresses
and telephone numbers, each domain name must be unique. Domain names are used
as a convenient way of locating information and reaching others on the Internet
Your domain name should be distinctive and directly related to your company's
name, product or service.
Why
should I register a domain name?
Like
any trade name, logo, or brand name, your domain name is an integral part of your
corporate identity. It should be something customers and businesses can recognise
and associate with your business.
Your
domain name is a powerful marketing tool. Promote your domain name on your business
cards, letterheads and marketing material. Your domain name is portable. It is
independent of your ISP, hence your web address and e-mail will remain constant
with you wherever in the world you may venture.
