A domain name is a unique combination of letters and/or numbers which gives your website a ‘web address.' For example, gmkgroup.co.za is our domain name.
Q:
What else do I need to get my website or email up and running?
Your domain will be automatically parked with Web Africa until you choose to link it to a hosting or email package. If you want to set up hosting and email, our packages start at just R19pm.
Q:
My preferred domain name is taken, what should I do?
You can add a hyphen between words e.g. "marks-bakery.co.za" or try alternative Top Level Domains (TLDs) such as .net or .biz. You can also try reformulating your name e.g. "marksbestbakery.co.za"
Registering a domain is the first step in establishing an on-line identity for you or your business. Having a good domain name allows you to create a customized website and have professional-looking email addresses.
Q:
How long does it take to get my domain registered?
Your domain will be registered instantly though it takes about 24 hours for the domain name system records to be updated. After this has happened, your domain will work perfectly.
