Have questions about domain names?

What is a domain name?

A domain name is a word or group of words used to uniquely identify your website.

Domain names come with hundreds of different extensions known as top-level-domains, such as .com, com.au and .co.nz. In most cases they represent the geographic location or country of the website that the domain name was registered for.

Why do you need a domain name?

Much like a physical address a domain name serves two main purposes. The first is the address for your website. By typing your domain name into the address bar, visitors are directed to your website, in the same way they could search your physical address and arrive at your business. The second is as a mailing address. People can send emails to an email address that uses your domain name. This email will arrive in your inbox. This mirrors sending a regular letter to your business address where it will arrive in your post box.

What domain name should I register?

When choosing a domain name for your business you need to consider your geographical area of business, your industry and your company name.

In Australia .com.au domain names are the most popular and by default the .com.au is targeted to web searches made within Australia. So for Australian business a .com.au domain is the best option. If you are looking at expanding internationally then a more generic domain extension such as a .com would be best.

Netregistry recommends registering several popular domains extensions including .com.au, net.au, .com and .net to protect brand identity online.
