Domain and Website Hosting
Take the hassle out of managing your website. We look after the domain registration and management as well as WordPress hosting.
What is a Domain?
A domain name is the address of your website that appears in the browser URL bar of a website.
The initial registration of a domain name is generally done in the early stages of the website design and build process. Websites need their own unique domain so once you have settled on a domain name, this must be purchased. Often people can get caught out not realising that a domain is already owned by someone else, so it pays to do your homework before deciding on a brand name. Once a domain has been registered, it needs to be renewed every 12 months.
We are able to manage the domain registration and annual renewal process for you. This lets you spend time on your business, taking the hassle and worry away and ensures your website registration does not lapse.
In addition to a domain name, you also need website hosting.
What is Website Hosting?
A website needs to be hosted with a provider in order for it to active on the internet. Hosting (the storage of your website’s files) occurs on the computer server of your hosting provider.
We are fortunate to have our own dedicated hosting server with a world leading provider that specifically hosts WordPress websites. It is preferable that any website we build is hosted on our server.
By having your website on our world-class hosting server, we guaranteed 99.95% uptime as well as ensuring your website is fast, secure and continually improving which at the end of the day is what we all want!
