Answers to some of the most frequently asked questions.
A domain name is the unique address people use to access your website, such as example.com. It helps users find your site easily on the internet. A domain name can also be linked to your email address, which is often more professional than using a free email service like Hotmail or Gmail.
Most domain names can generally be registered or renewed for a period of 1-10 years. When choosing your domain, you will be presented with available time frames in the shopping cart – .AU ccTLD domains are available for a period of 1-5 years registration and renewal.

Domain privacy protection hides your personal information from the public WHOIS database to keep your data secure. It’s available for eligible domains.
Yes, you can have multiple domains pointing to the same website. This is a great way to capture traffic from different domain variations, such as alternate spellings, common typos, or different extensions (e.g., .com, .net, .au). These additional domains can be set up to redirect visitors to your primary domain, ensuring they always land on your website regardless of which address they use. It can also stop your competitors from registering variations of your business or product name.
If your domain name expires, it may temporarily go into a grace period, allowing you to renew it before it becomes publicly available again. During this time, your website and associated services (like email) may stop functioning. If the grace period ends without renewal, the domain could enter a redemption phase, which often includes additional fees for recovery. Afterward, the domain might be released for anyone to register. To avoid losing your domain, we recommend enabling auto-renew or keeping track of renewal reminders.
Yes, some domain extensions have specific requirements for registration. For example, .au domains may require an ABN, ACN, or similar business identifier to demonstrate a connection to Australia. Other domain extensions, like .com, typically have no restrictions and are open to anyone. Before registering your domain, check the eligibility criteria for your chosen extension. Our team is here to assist if you need help meeting the requirements.
