The internet is a very powerful tool for any organization or business. A company website can reach millions of customers all over the world. Customers can purchase products with just a click of a button and a credit card. Location and time have become irrelevant when it comes to online businesses.

If you have a brick-and-mortar business and your business name has a great reputation, it may be a good idea to reserve domain name even if you do not plan to create a website for your business. If you reserve domain names, you protect your business name from domain name high-jackers. Domain name high-jacking is when someone puts up completely different and often malicious content under you business name on the internet. So if your customers are not aware that you do not have a website, they will see a different site offering different types of services and other stuff not related to your business. When you reserve domain name, you are protecting your business’ reputation and credibility.

Major corporations often register more than one domain name. They register a lot of variations like wrong spellings of their company names. They do not put websites under individual domains, rather they configure these domains to point to their own website.

You can purchase domain name through the internet. There are a lot of domain name registrars where you can start. However, purchasing a domain name for a number of years is not enough. Once you have registered your domain name, you have to make sure your contact information stated in your account is current and updated. The domain name registrar may send you notices via email or regular mail. Make sure you print out copies of the pertinent documents and keep them updated with billing statements and proof of payment.
