More On How To Register A Domain
What exactly is a domain name?
A domain name is your address on the internet. An appealing domain name will help people find your website and remember your business. Having a good domain will also help people find you on Google. A domain name is also a great way of branding your personalised email accounts (e.g.: you@yourbusiness.co.za).
Why do you need a domain?
Registering a domain is the first step in establishing an online identity for you or your business. Having a good domain name allows you to create a tailored made website and have professional-looking email addresses.
Tips for a great domain name?
Keep your domain name as short and as memorable as possible. You should also avoid using hyphens. Try think of an acronym if you have a long business name. Keeping things as plain as possible to make sure that people will remember you or your business. Make sure you also register your full business name to protect your brand.

Should you choose a local domain (.co.za) or an international domain (.com)?
This is really up to you. The rule of thumb is: the more domain names you have, the better your chances are of getting found and succeed online. Having more than a one domain also helps stop your rivals from registering domains that might benefit your business. You can always choose your preferred domain, but make sure you register more than one.
Why is purchasing more than one domain so important for your business?
The more domain names you have pointing to your website, the more likely people are to find you. We recommend registering a geographic extension, such as .joburg, .capetown and .durban, to let customers know where you're located if your business is based in specific area. Also register addition to generic extensions, domains such as .co.za or .com. You can also register a .net domain for a business that is more networking orientated or for an organisation you can look at .org or .org.za. By registering these you're protecting your business from anyone else who wants to register these.
