  What’s in a name? It never, never, ceases to amaze us. Considering how important they are, what can and does go on with companies and their domain names, at times beggars belief. Let’s be crystal clear: your domain name is one of your company’s most valuable business assets. It's not just a minor purchase with outright ownership, or something that just works and needs no regular attention. How you choose it, who you use to register it, and how you manage it, is critical (yes, domain names require management, not just registration). Here are just some of the unfortunate tales we hear… You got it free or very cheap - Oh dear. Are you sure you own it? The domain name company or ISP may have registered the name on your behalf…but using their details. They may have wrongly spelt names or addresses. Check now whether you have seen or downloaded a registrant’s certificate. Look up the owner details online using a registry WHOIS. Things not right? Then call us. You forgot to renew it - If your registration fees aren’t paid on time, your name will expire and may be transferred or re-sold. Budget domain name companies will send an email reminder, but that’s it. They won’t chase you. Surprised owners of valuable domain names that have accidentally expired can be ‘held to ransom’ in order to re-purchase them. Domain name just expired? Then call us. You can’t administer your domain - You own a domain that someone – an employee, a creative agency – bought for you. They’ve long since departed – without leaving you details of how or where to login to access the domain name control panel. Need help? Then call us. E247 specifically provides 'hands-on' domain name management services, so we can prevent mistakes like this happening to you. We deal with all the necessary technical chores that most SMEs neither want, or have the time to deal with. We register, transfer, renew, host, administer, configure, update, and proactively manage domain names. We treat them as a significant facet of your combined company web services, not as some ancillary item. So, if you're keen to avoid future mishaps, have concerns about your current domain names, or want to share an unfortunate tale, then call us on 0845 060 3247. We're ready to take you seriously. |
