Domain Registration

Domain names are unique way to identify your organisation on the Internet.

An Example domain name is “spit.com.au”. The "spit" component of the domain name refers to the organisation itself. The "www" part is the host name of the server that handles Internet requests and the “com.au” part is a guide to the location of the domain. In this case it is Australia.

How do I register a Domain Name?

Millions of domain names have already been registered, but there are plenty more available. The first thing to decide is which domain type to buy.

General, a “com.au” or “com” are the preferred choice for Australian businesses and are the best options for the majority of applications. When you have decided on a Domain Name contact spIT and we will take care of the registration process on your behalf.

“ Spit brought us out of the 20th Century into the 22nd Century in one hit. We cannot speak highly enough of Mike, Claire and their team. We were advised from within “the industry” that it is “impossible” to break free from the ‘industry’ website providers – WRONG! Mike said, “we can do it better” and they did it!. We could not be happier with the results and our ongoing relationship with Spit.”
