Domain Name Registration

A domain name is your address on the Internet. By setting up your site through your local Internet service provider, you will receive a long and impossibly to remember web address, something like this: http://www.serviceprovidername.com.au/user/page/yourname/index.html.

So how can you acquire an easy-to-remember address? Well, first of all you have to think what name you want as yours. It should be relatively simple, easy to remember and at the same time give good indication of your business activities.

Once you have the name, TM-Consultants will perform free online domain name search to see if the name you selected is free.

The next step would be to register your domain name. TM-Consultants will do it for you.
