Why should I have a domain name?

We advise all our customers to have their own domain names.
There are many advantages to having your own domain name, and these include

  1. Shorter and easier to remember URL (eg www.youraffix.co.uk instead of www.yourwebhost.net/yourspace)

  2. Nicer and easier to remember e-mail address (eg you@youraffix.co.uk instead of you@yourwebhost.net)

  3. If you change your internet service provider (ISP), your email and web addresses will remain the same, enabling you to shop around for the best ISP prices and services. This means that you will not need to change any business cards or stationary and all your visitors will still be able to find your site.

  4. They're now so inexpensive that everyone can afford to have one.

We now suggest clients use Clook for domain names as we have found them to be inexpensive and excellent to deal with.
