DOMAIN MANAGEMENT AND HOSTING

What is domain management?

Domain management is the ongoing maintenance of your domains, including permissions, stability and updating.

What is web hosting?

Web hosting is the provision of space on a server that enables your website and emails to be available online.

Why is domain management & web hosting so important?

Domain management can be complicated and catastrophic if you get it wrong. You could be left without emails and your website down! DNS management also ensures email validity and protects from cyber-attacks.

Your domain should be considered an asset to your company! It is at the forefront of your online presence, along with being imperative to your organisation’s communications. Managing your domain is just as important as managing Trademarks and other assets, perhaps even more so in the current online climate.

Choosing a web hosting provider is also important, to ensure high availability of your website, online services and emails, with as little downtime as possible.
