domain registration
We will register a UK domain for customers purchasing our basic, standard and advanced packages. This UK domain will be registered with the registrar for the UK, Nominet. As there are many millions of domains already registered it is possible that your first domain choice will not be available. If this is the case you can choose an alternate, perhaps with a - or including other words in the name chosen.
All domains will be registered to the customer and for a period of 2 years. At the end of this 2 year period (domains are rented, never owned) we will ask you if you wish to renew. Renewal of domains is charged at £10 for each 2 year period.
Domains that are not re-registered by customers will be offered to the general public by Nominet if allowed to lapse.
To discover what domains are available for registration please go to Nominet and enter the domain name you would like (without the www.) into the whois box provided.
