The format
Domains are composed of a minimum of 2 and a
maximum of 67 characters, inluding the extension
(.nl,.com,.net etc.). All letters from a to z
and - (hyphen) can be used. Domain names can not
start or end with -, and domainnames are not
capital sensitive.
Accounting for third parties
Not all names can doubtlessly be registered. A
domain name can still be available and be
requested, or even registered, and still violate
the rights of third parties. Please be advised
that, with your domain name, you are not
violating the rights of third parties. This
refers to brands, company names, etc.
Define the target group
Choose a domain name that matches the targeted
group. Depending on the target group, you can
choose domain names that are professional,
sincere, dynamic or that include a headword.
Keep the name short and simple
The shorter the name, the less spelling errors
will be made by visitors, and the easier the
name will be to remember. Use a maximum of 2 or
3 words in a domain name. Make sure the domain
name can be pronounced aloud, people will better
remember the name.
Higher score in the search engine
To gain a higher score in the search engine, you
can extend the domain name with several
headwords. Several search engines give better
results when the headwords appear in the domain
name.
Use the appropriate plurals
For example, if you want an overview of all
houses that are for sale in the region, you will
sooner enter www.houses.com than www.house.com.
Plan ahead
If you plan to offer other products or services
in the future, then don't choose a domain name
that only applies to one product or service. In
spite of this statement, marketing experts
believe that the website should refer to one
subject. All products or services offered on the
website must be associated with the domain name.
Please be advised: a website with many common
grounds is not interesting for people in search
of a specific subject.
Choose the right extension
.com, .org, .net, have a worldwide range of the
target group. .nl, .be, etc. have a national
range of the target group. Note that some
extensions may not be registered by everyone. (eg
.fr) More information on this topic can be found
on our website.
Do not use, if possible, a dash (-) between
words.
With the dash, it is more troublesome to
pronounce a domain name. It is widely accepted
that a domain name is written with several
adjacent words. Your domain name can score
higher at the search engines with a dash. In
that case, we recommend you register both domain
names and register with the search engines. You
can forward the domain name with the dash to
your main domain name.
Do not use confusing spelling
The same words can have different meanings in
different countries.
Do not use a similar domain name
If your domain name closely resembles the name
of your competitor, there is a chance that
visitors will also find the site of the
competitor. Unless you want to use the brand
awareness of the competition to receive lost
visitors on your own site.
In closing...
Like any brand, logo or vignette, your domain
name also represents your company. Clients
associate the domain name with the
product/service of the company.
-
If the domain name is easy to remember,
visitors will sooner be attracted.
-
People will use your website or e-mail
address to quickly and simply gain access to
the information, services and products that
you offer.
-
Domain names are transferable. You can change
your address, phone number or internetprovider and still keep the same
domain name. This provides a very flexible
way to keep in contact with your
visitors/clients.

-
Transfer a domain name to DataSpeed
transfer
a domain name to DataSpeed is generally a fast process, at
the order form select "transfer
domain". Then, you will be
sent the necessary documents.
You can also speed up your application by filling out the 2
necessary documents yourself:
the transfer document and certificate of indentification.
Both can be found on our
forms
page.
for this, you pay the standard prices that we also charge
for normal domain registration.
(see bottom of page)
- Keeping your current domain at your current
registrar
Keeping
your current domain at your current registrar is also
possible, we will provide you the necessary
DNS settings.
Condition: you have to have indicated to your current
registrar that you want new hosting and that
the DNS and nameservers have to be changed. Don't forget
that sometimes, registrars charge
costs for this (DataSpeed does not). The nameservers (ns1
and ns2) can be found under
'hostinginfo'. We do
not charge setup costs or transfer
costs.
If your extension is not
present,
mail us for the price.
Nearly all extensions are possible.
