| What is a domain name and why would I want
one? |
First off let me clarify what a domain name is, infowest.com
is a domain name.
1. We register all our domain names through the InfoWest Domain Registration system.
InfoWest, Inc. has partnered with Tucows in conjunction with the OpenSRS Domain project. This partnership allows for more control and greater feasibility of domain functions. In addition to a web based management for domains, prices are lower than those of NetworkSolutions. One year domain registration or transfers run at $25.00 USD.
Any questions about the InfoWest Domain Registration system should be sent to
domains@infowest.com
2. There are many reasons to get domain name. A few of
them are to be easier to find, and easier to remember for
your clients, having email at your domain name is also a big
request ie. sales@yourdomain.com or info@yourdomain.com. One
of the biggest advantages of having a domain name is that
it will become easier to get your website listed in the search
engines.
3. How do I find out if a domain name is taken? Use our domain
search tool to search if a domain is available. Click click
