What is a domain name?
A domain name is simply your way of
protecting your business, company and trade names in the online
world and it stops unauthorized
entities taking your valuable asset - your image, identity and
reputation.
It is important to secure your domain names
even if you "do not" have
a web site.
If you decide to establish a web site or
homepage later on for your business then your domain name truly
becomes so much more - your web address
on the Internet, a unique map is a unique reference or locator for
your customers both locally and
globally
Domain names are increasingly becoming a
valuable branding tool / commodity for any corporation or
enterprise.
The different types of domain names that you can
register online through OzGuide are:
-
.com.au
- should be your first choice in Australia as it informs people
that you are a registered and legitimate Australian business.
This is the domain name space where your customers and
competitors will know you most and expect to find you.
-
.com,
.net and .org - should be your next point of registration -
it is considered to be the global space and is certainly the
most well known for conducting international business.
-
.biz
& .info should definitely be seriously considered,
especially if you are an Australian business. The .biz domain
name space is restricted to businesses only and .info is a broad
reach global domain name space, known as the information space.
