How to Register a Domain Name

Quick answer: Choose a short name, check it is available, register it in your own name through a registrar and set it to renew automatically.

Choosing a good domain

• Close to your business name
• Short and easy to spell out loud
• Avoid hyphens and numbers
• .co.za for South African customers, see .co.za vs .com

Register it in your name

The registrant is the legal owner. Make sure it is you or your company, not your developer.

Renewals

Domains renew yearly. Turn on auto-renewal and keep your contact email current.

We register domains from R250 a year.
