domain name registration.

Domain name registration can be arranged for you by Iris Website Design. We are able to perform a domain name search and register your selected domain name.

We register your chosen domain name (if available), via a company based in the UK that offers domain name registration services. Just as your home has a street address whereby people can visit and send you mail, all web sites have domain names which work in the same way.

HOW LONG CAN A DOMAIN NAME BE?
A Domain Name can be up to 63 characters in length, and can consist of all the letters in the English alphabet plus the numbers 0 to 9 and the hyphen. Your domain name could be a mixture of these characters but cannot start or end in a hyphen. The hyphens are used to separate words within the domain name to make them more readable.

DOMAIN NAME AVAILABILITY:
It is always wise to check the availability of the domain name you would like to register and if necessary think of alternative domain names should your first choices be unavailable. We provide a domain name search facility which you can use to check domain name availability.

Domain Name Tips.
1. Make it easy to spell: If people can't spell your domain name easily, they could mis-spell it and end up visiting your competitors website.
2. Make it easy to remember: so internet surfers can access your web site by typing in your domain name in their browser window.
3. Make it short and simple: The ideal domain name is short and simple (difficult to achieve now as most one word domains are not available).
