Domain Registration
What’s This?
The first step in creating your own web site is registering a domain name. This will be your new web site address or “URL” and will be yours for as long as you maintain registration. Your new web site and email accounts will be located at this address, e.g. www.yournewdomain.com and yourname@yournewdomain.com.
www.yourname.com
We can register any available .com, .net, .org, .us, .biz, or .info domain name1 and manage all of your domain controls (DNS Records) for you.
If you are not ready to build a website but have decided on a domain name, you may wish to proceed with registering your name to ensure it is available when you need it.
Australian or other domain extensions?
Registration pricing differs for Australian (i.e. .com.au, .net.au, .org.au or .id.au) and other domains (eg. .mobi, .bz, .eu, etc.). Contact us, or complete the Get Started form, and we can provide you with a quote.
Already Have a Domain
Aarfie can host any domain that you have already registered elsewhere.
