Domains & Mailboxes

Every website needs a domain name, and most people choose to have a professional email address/mailbox.

These questions will ask if you already have these, or if you need us to set them up.

Section 1 out of 2

Domain name

A domain name is your web address. Most people in this country choose a .co.uk domain.

 

Every website needs a domain name. You may already have one registered, or you may want us to buy one for you.

​

Your primary domain name with us is only £1 a month if you're on a web plan. (.co.uk only).

 

If you prefer, you can buy one yourself.

If you already own one that you'd like to use for the website, please put this down. If you will need one purchasing, please write your ideal domain name. If it is not available we will offer you some alternatives.

Do you already own this domain name?
Yes, I have it ready / I'm going to buy it myself
No, I want you to sort it out for me
I don't know what this is, I need help

We include a .co.uk domain name for free in your website plan. Unlike other web designers, we keep you as the legal owner - we are just the managers.

If you do already own it, where is it registered?
GoDaddy
IONOS
123-reg
Other
I don't know
I don't own it

If you already own one, we will give you the option to transfer it to ourselves if you'd like to. This will save you money and mean the responsibility of the management is on us.

Email Addresses

A professional email address is a mailbox connected to your domain name and would look something like this: kat@onlinedesigns.uk.

 

You could have your name, or accounts@, or sales@, or anything you like. These are £6.80 a month per mailbox and are usually run through Google, although Microsoft is also available if you prefer.

​

Most businesses choose to have one as they look more professional than a free one such as @gmail or @outlook.

Do you already have professional email addresses?
Yes
No

This means email addresses connected to a domain name, eg kat@onlinedesigns.uk, which you will pay for. This does NOT count things like @gmail or @outlook - these are just free personal mailboxes.

If no, how many mailboxes would you like us to set up?
1
2
3 or more
None - I'll stick with a free Gmail or Outlook etc.
I'll have a think later on
Would you like to use Google or Microsoft?
Google (recommended for small local businesses)
Microsoft (recommended for more corporate businesses)
I need more help on this

Thanks! We appreciate your time and effort.
