Black Country Website Design - Domains & Hosting

Domain Names

Domain Names are an extremely important part of website design. They offer immediate access into what the website has to offer, and are powerful and unique to your particular business.

In order for people to find your business quickly, it is important to register a domain that is either related to your business, or, preferably, your company name. All major companies have websites with domain names that are the company name (e.g. www.microsoft.com) and it is advisable for you to follow
their example.

The suffix of domains is also important for recognition. We always try to register (.co.uk) domains for small British businesses, but (.com .net .org and .biz) can be used as well. We will be more than prepared to help and assist you with choosing the best available domain name for your business. If you already have an idea as to what you would like your domain name to be, we can check if that name is available to use.

Your Domain Name

Once we have registered your domain name, it’s yours! (you own the rights and usage of it) That particular unique domain cannot be used online by any other company or party as long as you follow the terms of use. Your website will then remain 'live' as long as the hosting fee is met every year. If the hosting fee is not met, your website may run the risk of being taken down from the Internet, allowing competitors to potentially purchase that domain.

What is Web Hosting?

All over the world the Internet runs millions of web sites that are all hosted on computers, known as web servers. The web server stores your entire website files, to allow it to keep running and working smoothly without problems.

Black Country Websites will provide you with comprehensive space on our web servers to allow anyone surfing the Internet to view your web site at anytime.
