If the domain sits in someone else's account, you do not really control your business address. We register it in your name.
Domain registration
Your own .com.au domain, registered and configured properly
Picking the domain is the easy part. Pointing DNS records at the right hosting, mail and verification services without breaking your email is where most people come unstuck. We handle all of it.
Included from the Starter plan
Melbourne-based, on the ground across the south-east and northern suburbs, with support in Canberra and remote setup Australia-wide.
What customers actually search for
- register com.au domain
- domain name for tradie business
- how to buy a business domain Australia
- transfer domain to new website
A .com.au domain signals to Australian customers that you are an Australian business, and to Google that your site is locally relevant. It requires an ABN or ACN, which we help you verify during setup.
The problem
Where domains go wrong
Broken DNS
One wrong record and your email silently stops arriving. We configure and verify every record.
Quiet expiry
Domains lapse, get snapped up and resold back at ransom prices. We monitor renewal dates for you.
Wrong extension
.com.au carries more local trust than a generic alternative for a business serving Australian suburbs.
