It makes sense
for any company or organisation to always own it's Primary Internet Domain(s) in order to safeguard it's intellectual property, trademarking or
brand identities on the web.
However, as the web gets 'noisier' and companies
struggle to be noticed amongst the increasing numbers of competitors going on-line, it
becomes essential to have as many paths leading to your site as you can you possibly
afford. If you have to buy pre-registered domain names outright from domain brokers,
this could prove to be very expensive. Domain Renting or
Leasing provides the solution.
So how will NEW customers find you ?.
If you are lucky, potential
customers will usually find your site after a search for 'generic' terms or phrases relating to the type of business you are in and for the
type of products or services you may sell. Assuming of course that yours is the business
with the foresight to have registered those 'generic' terms or phrases as web address
(URLs) and incorporated them as entries in the popular search engines and directories.
Don't rely on your
Company's Web Address Alone.
With the exception of high
profile household name companies, a company's web address based on it's trading
name (Primary Internet Address) is unlikely to generate any significant internet
traffic to your site (if any). The trick is to use several 'generic' domain names as hooks or Traffic Catchers.
These hooks will pull customers directly to your site (and not those of
your competitors). TrafficCatchers URLs are usually based on Key Words, Key Phrases and
Product Brand Names etc. In short, words that
your prospective customers would intuitively search or guess the web address for.
Examples:
eConsumers will often type in a guess address (URL) in the hope they will
find a suitable site without the need to have to search for one. For example 'www.grammarschools.com'
would be the obvious guess for a parent looking for details on Grammar Schools.
A typical BMW Car Dealer, is unlikely to be
found on the web by their normal trading name. So to be found by a search or even better,
directly from the browser's address bar, they should have ;
'www.CheapBMWcars.com' coupled with 'www.CheapGermanCars.com' and 'www.NewCarSelector.com'. For their used car section, 'www.CheapUsedCars.co.uk' should working for them to. The more generic the address the more
likely the chance of being found first.
The more TrafficCatchers
you have working for you, the greater your chances of being the customer's first port of call.
Renting Makes Business

How does Renting Work ?.
Once you have selected your
domain(s). We will configure those domain(s) to point directly to your web
site and if required, have any emails addressed to those domains, forwarded on to your own
designated email address. (Domain management is included as
part of the monthly rental cost).
For all this, you will be charged
an all inclusive monthly equivalent cost. (to be paid Monthly in advance). Throughout the agreed rental period,
you will have exclusive rights
to your chosen domain(s).
If you decide you no longer wish
to rent a domain. You simply provide us with 2 months
notice that you no longer require the domain(s).
Its as simple as that.
- We reserve the right to cancel the rental
agreement, giving you a minimum of 2 months notice.
- We retain ownership of and all rights to the domains
we provide for rent.
Note: All domains we provide for
rent or lease, are hosted by a third party Internet Service Provider (ISP).
As such we cannot be held responsible for any subsequent disruption or failure of the
ISP's equipment or service(s). |
