Domain Registration
Web Design By The Bay can set up a new domain name for your business, or transfer an existing one to the Domain provider we use. Costs vary for Domain names depending on whether the address is a .com, .com.au, .net etc. Before selecting your domain name, you should consider the following:
- Keep your domain name short and simple, so that people can remember it
- A .com name is the most popular top-level domain name. However if you are selling a product or a service within Australia, then you should consider using a .com.au address
- Avoid a name similar to that of your competition
- Have a number of domain names chosen, incase the domain name you are searching for has already been taken
- When purchasing a .com.au domain name, please ensure that you have your abn number ready, as you will need this at the time of purchase
- Its always a good idea to purchase a domain name thats available in your country extension, as well as the .com
- If you are in Australia, it’s always a good idea to purchase the .au as well as the .com.au
- We only work with Australian providers
Looking to transfer your domain name away from your current provider?
To transfer your domain names across to our provider you will need to provide us with the following:
- Domain Name

All the .com.au domain names will be transferred complementary as long as the domain names are not up for renewal.
