Domain name
Buy and register a domain name
Choose a domain name that suits your business and have it registered in your name, together with your website and hosting.
Your domain name is your address on the internet: the part customers type in or recognise in Google, such as yourcompany.nl. A good choice makes it easier to be found and remembered, and fits your brand. We help you choose, register and manage your domain name, together with your website and hosting.
You usually register a domain name for a year or longer, after which it is renewed. It is a choice that sticks, so it pays to think it over before updating your business cards, vehicle signage and Google Business Profile.
Advice
Tips for a good domain name
Three things to look out for when choosing.
Short and simple
The shorter and easier to spell, the easier it is for customers to remember and type your address.
Fits your business
Use your company name, or a service and place if you work locally. Avoid numbers and awkward hyphens.
Owned by you
We register the domain name in your name, so you always remain the owner.
Switching
Moving your domain to us
Do you already have a domain name with another provider? You can usually leave it where it is or move it. In the intro call we look at what is most convenient. If you move your domain name to us, we make sure your website and email keep working during the transfer.
Combine your domain name with web hosting and maintenance and everything sits with one partner. Also set up your Google Business Profile, so your new address is correct everywhere from day one. We discuss costs and terms up front: get in touch on 06-27908997 or via the contact form.
Background
Why your domain name matters
A domain name is often underestimated. Yet it determines how your business is found, mentioned and remembered: in search results, on business cards, in email addresses and on vehicles. An address such as info@yourcompany.nl inspires more trust than a generic free email address, and your own domain keeps you independent of any single platform.
- Email on your own domain: more professional and easier to remember.
- One address everywhere: use the same name on your website, Google Business Profile and social media.
- Keep an eye on renewals: an expired domain means an offline website and missed email.
- Consider several extensions: for example register both .nl and .com to avoid confusion.
FAQ
Frequently asked questions
Answers to the questions we hear most often. Is yours not listed? Get in touch.
What is a domain name?
A domain name is the address of your website, for example yourcompany.nl. Visitors type it in or see it in search results.
Can I move my existing domain name to you?
Usually yes. We first check where your domain is now and arrange the transfer so your website and email keep working.
Who owns the domain name?
You do. We register the domain in your name, so you can always take it with you.
Which extension should I choose: .nl or .com?
If you mainly work in the Netherlands, .nl is familiar and trusted. If you also target international customers, .com or a second domain can make sense.
