Having your own domain name is beneficial in many ways.

• It will give your business a professional look.
• Having an easy-to-remember domain name will make it easier for people to find your site.
• You can create a professional looking email address with mail sent to your domain name. It looks very unprofessional when a business has a free E-mail address such as businessname@hotmail.co.uk
• You can use any ISP and change at any time whilst always using your domain name for your email address
• You can register several names for your business and make them all point to your website.
• By registering similar domains to your main one prevents other companies getting names in your line of business and potential taking your customers

Remember that a great domain name is just the first step in succeeding online. It takes a reliable, professional website built to attract visitors and keep them coming back. To get your website built by uPlugged.co.uk, click Here for more information.

We highly recommend getting your own domain name if you are serious about doing business on the net.

A domain name is extremely important to your business. You must register your domain name before you can build your site. We strongly advise discussing your requirements with us before choosing your hosting package. Domain names can be registered and protected with us. You will not need to purchase hosting until you are ready to use the domain name. If you have any questions, please contact us and we will be happy to discuss your requirements.

Domain Name Portfolio

• Got an idea for a website?
• Not ready to proceed yet?
• Need to protect a number of different domain names?

At uPlugged we can help you manage your domain name portfolio. You can register an unlimited number of domain names with us. They will be legally registered to you and we will protect them against being registered by anyone else.

Our domain name portfolio can register domain names for any reason. You never need to purchase a hosting package or use the domain names you have protected. If you have a website, you can point your domain names to the site you already have. Whatever the reason, contact us and will protect as many domain names as you need.

All you need to do is purchase the domain name which, depending on the extension, is only a few pounds. The only other bill you will receive is if you choose a hosting package. You will also need to pay the nenewal fees for the domain names at the end of the year.

You Choose!

By registering your domain name with uPlugged.co.uk, you are free to choose who designs your website. Although uPlugged does offer high quality web design, this is independent of the Hosting Service and you are NOT obliged to use us. Simply login to your account, set up a new FTP account for your web designer, and they will be able to upload your website to your account. You will still benefit from all of the excellent services available from uPlugged including Web Mail and the Web Hosting Control Panel. If you decide in the future to change web designer, you won't have to change your hosting or Email accounts as we will continue to provide your service. This means your website will continue to run without interruption.

co.uk, com, eu, net, org...?
It is a good idea to register several similar domain names, particularly if you own a trademark for a certain name. If possible register the .co.uk, .com, .eu and .net. These are the most popular domain names and by registering all of them you can help to prevent cyber squatters and losing traffic.

Consider common typos
If you have a domain name that can easily by pluralised or miss-spelled consider registering those as well to stop traffic going elsewhere.

Don't shell out large amounts of money
Some companies still sell domain names for as much as £100 per year. Make sure you are getting a good deal!

Register your domain now!
You must register as soon as possible, or risk getting stuck with "the-domain-name-that-no-one-wanted.net". You do not have to have a Webmaster or an ecommerce department or a web design consultant... you don't even need a web page. Simply search for your domain name and register it yourself. Simple!

FAQs
How long will it take for my new domain name to become active?
Domains are registered as soon as you order them, however it can take between 24 and 72 hours for a domain name to become visible on the Internet as each DNS updates its database of domain names.

Can I buy a domain name, but not buy web hosting?
Yes, you do not have to buy the web hosting when you buy a domain name. If you decide to add web hosting in the future you can easily upgrade with one of our feature rich hosting packages .

Do I own the domain name?
Yes - unlike some companies we always register the domain in your name or in your customer's name if you are working on someone's behalf.

Can I transfer the domain at any time?
Yes, you can, and we provide a control panel so that you can make these changes yourself at any time and that's all included in the price.

Do I get a certificate of ownership for the domain I purchase?
In the past Nominet issued certificates as confirmation of the contract that exists between Nominet and the registrant and this continued until August 2003. Paper certificates and reply Forms have now been replaced by an online system called Registrants Online.
