Step 2. Creating a name

Your Domain Name is how people find your business on the Internet (like your name and address on an envelope). When you first start an account with Xtra your address is automatically an @xtra address (like a "Care of..."). For example; joebloggs@xtra.co.nz By registering your company name as your Domain Name you can use it in your email address e.g. joebloggs@mycompany.co.nz

Why register a Domain Name?

Registering your company name, or product name, as your Domain Name, is the first step to building a strong brand presence on the Internet. You can use it for all of your email addresses for your staff, e.g. name@yourcompanyname.co.nz, for groups/ or functions, e.g. sales@yourcompany.co.nz as well as for your Web site address, eg, www.yourcompanyname.co.nz

Xtra Business will apply to register your chosen name for your exclusive use online. The advantages of registering your own Domain Name include:

No one else in New Zealand will be able to register the Domain Name you want to use on the Internet
Your email address will be your company name which is easier for your customers to remember
Simple email addresses will make it easier for customers to know who to contact within your company, e.g. sales@mycompany.co.nz or support@mycompany.co.nz
Your staff can make their own email addresses more accessible and personal e.g. joe.bloggs@mycompany.co.nz
Your Domain Name will make it easier for your customers to find your Web site
