Domains
To host a website with us, you need a domain. That is to say, if you want your website to be accessed by browsing www.your-site.com, you need to buy the rights to use the address www.your-site.com.
There are two ways you can buy a domain to host with us.
Buy one from another company
This is what we advise. Registering a domain and hosting a website are two very distinct parts of what you need. The time may come when your needs change, and you want to change the company who provides one of those services to one more suitable to your new circumstances. Having the two services provided by the same company could make it more difficult to move just one to a new provider.
We recommend Domain Monster, and you can read about the process of registering a domain through them and then pointing your domain to our server on the order process page.
Buy one from us
Although we advise registering domains from a company that specialises in that, we allow you to register a domain at the same time as you buy a hosting package from us. We will then register your domain on your behalf.
Our prices are simple:
- .co.uk, .org.uk, or .me.uk: £15 for 2 years
- .com, .org, or .net: £15 for 1 year
You can host any top level domain with us, but if you want a top level domain other than those listed above (say, .fr, for French individuals or companies), you'd need to register that from another company.
Alternatively, if you choose to pay for your hosting in US Dollars, you pay for the domain in US Dollars too - the price is calculated at checkout.
