Domain Names and Website Hosting

What is a domain name?

A domain name is essentially the internet address for your website, also referred to as a URL. The right to use a domain name is delegated by domain name registrars which are accredited by the Internet Corporation for Assigned Names and Numbers (ICANN). These registrars charge an annual fee for the service of delegating a domain name to a user.

What domain name management services do you provide?

If you choose to have your domain name managed by us, we will:

Verify that the domain name is available
Once you have have chosen an available domain name, purchase the domain
Configure all of the required registration information, including contacts and nameservers
Set ourselves as the technical contact for your domain name so that we can handle any technical issues for you
Manage the yearly renewals of the domain name

How much does this cost?

We charge between $10.99/year and $19.99/year to manage your domain name. Why the variance? Because some domain names cost less to purchase than others, so why should you pay more if yours is a domain that costs less? For example, a domain name that ends in .com can be purchased for $10.99 per year, whereas a domain name that ends in .us may cost $19.99 per year.

If you're also using our web design and development services to create your website, the first year of our domain name management service is FREE!

What is website hosting?

Website hosting is a type of service that allows websites to be accessible via the World Wide Web. Web hosts are companies that provide space on a server to store your website and display it to visitors. These web hosts charge a monthly fee for this service.
