A domain name is simply a uniquely identifiable address which people refer to in order to access someone’s website. When a user types in this address into an internet browser, it finds the IP address that it relates to and then loads the website from there.
In order to have a website, or an email address you need a domain name as a point of addressing for the internet to work out where the email is being sent to. Click here for more information on this.

As you can see from this table, our renewal prices are the same as our registration prices. Some companies charge more for this, we do not. It should also be noted that all .com/.org domain name transfers include an additional one year registration (except for the .uk domains which only cost £1 for the transfer).
Yes. It is really easy to transfer a domain name to us. The prices are listed in the table above and the steps involved in transferring a domain name to us can be located by clicking here.
You can use the domain availability checker to the right hand side of this page to see if the domain name that you want is currently available.
This is a commonly asked question. If you register the domain name it is registered in your name and you own it and have all the rights to it.
