Domain Names |
|
A domain name is basically an alpha-numeric name or address used to identify a computer. Think of it as a phone number - except words instead of numbers. The most common reason for registering a domain name is if you want to build a website - but is also required if you want to set up mail, ftp, or any other service where you need a unique address corresponding to your brand name.
Domain types available from RELIEZ:
2LD's: .com.au, net.au, .id.au, asn.au, org.au
TLD's: .com, .net, .org, .biz and .info. |
 |
 |
.com.au is used by commercial entities such as companies with an Australian Company Number and businesses registered with State governments. |
 |
 |
.net.au is recommended for organizations and companies that are using the Internet as an integral part of their operations |
 |
 |
.id.au is reserved for the people of Australia to create their own online identity. |
 |
 |
.asn.au is for incorporated associations, trade unions, political parties, sporting and special interest clubs, and partnerships between disparate organisations. |
 |
 |
.org.au is for verifiable non-profit and charitable organisations. | |
Premium URL forwarding |
|
URL forwarding (also known as URL cloaking) lets you point your domain to your existing webspace without spending a cent on hosting. For example, if you registered the domain name mycompany.com, you make www.mycompany.com point to another URL - say, one hosted with your ISP - or even a free hosting service such as geocities.
The advantage of this, is that you can get rid of your long URL address, such as:
http://www.yourISP.com/users/yourname/
and replace it with your own brand without spending a cent on web hosting. With our unique Premium URL management facility, you can specify where to point your domain as well as providing a title and META tags for search engines. Our system is totally invisible to your visitors, we do not place any advertising on your web site. The Premium URL forwarding features are accessible from the domain 'manage' menu.
Even if you have your website hosted, our Premium URL Forwarding package will give you up to 10 different sub domains. For example, if your domain was sport.com.au, you could have subdomains like tennis.sport.com.au, footy.sport.com.au, swimming.sport.com.au etc. |
DNS Hosting |
|
DNS Hosting is perfect for any domain owner who wants complete control of their domain. Our fully automated DNS Hosting service allows you to control your dns records through our already existing domain management area.
Using this service you can update / insert / delete Domain Servers (A Records), Domain Aliases (CNAME Records) and Mail Servers (MX Records) of your own accord. DNS Hosting is an extremely valuable tool, and we urge you to take advantage of it.
DNS Hosting is available with any domain and costs just $39 per year. |
Domain Parking |
|
Domain parking gives your domain a temporary home while you work out what you want to do with your domain name. Its similar to URL forwarding - but designed for those who don't actually have an existing website URL, and simply want a placeholder page.
Please Note: Domain parking is FREE with all domains registered or renewed with RELIEZ. | |
