Domain Name Registration
What's in a Name? Domain Name That Is!
It all starts with a name. Your domain name is the "dot com" that points viewers to your website. The internet is now inundated with names so it's becoming increasingly difficult to select a name that's short and sweet. That being said, choose a name that reflects your brand or identity and try to keep it, well, short and sweet!
Use a Reputable Domain Name Provider
A couple of suggestions when purchasing a domain name. First, always purchase from a reputable domain name registrar such as Enom. Go Daddy and Network Solutions are great registrars but they charge for extras like domain name forwarding and ID protection.
Add ID Protection to Your Domain Name
Second, when you register your domain name, always opt for domain name protection to avoid the spammers. I include Domain ID Protection at no additional charge.
Don't Lose Your Domain Name
Lastly, make notes as to whom you registered your domain with and when the renewal date is. Spammers will get a hold of your contact information and send you "Urgent Renewal Notices" encouraging you to renew your domain name for some exorbitant amount of money. Just say no!
When you register your domain name with me, I keep track of renewals so you don't lose your valuable domain name. Names can easily expire because of expired credit cards or failure to heed authentic renewal notices. When your domain name expires, your website, and usually your email go down with it.

If your domain name expires, your website and email may stop working. Although there is often a short period in which the domain can still be renewed, waiting can result in additional recovery fees or even the permanent loss of the domain name to another buyer.
To transfer your domain, unlock it at your current registrar and request its authorization (EPP) code. Then initiate the transfer through your new registrar and provide the authorization code when requested. You may also need to approve the transfer by email. Before transferring, verify your DNS and nameserver settings so your website and email continue working properly.
