Register a domain in your company's name

Nexcified doesn't sell or register domain names. You register your domain yourself, with a domain registrar, so it's always legally yours. We guide you through it and then connect it to your Nexcified hosting.

Why register it yourself#

• Your domain is your business's address online. Registered in your company's name, nobody else, not a former agency, developer or staff member, can hold it back from you.
• You stay in control of renewals, ownership and where it points.

Choose a registrar#

Compare the renewal price, not just the first-year offer.

Register it#

1. Search for the name you want and add it to your cart.
2. Enter your company's legal name as the registrant (owner).
3. Use a company email address that will always be monitored, such as admin@ or a shared mailbox. Avoid a personal or one staff member's address.
4. Turn on auto-renew and keep a valid card on the account.
5. Turn on the registrar lock (transfer lock) and two-step verification for the registrar account.
6. Keep the login in your company's password manager.

Connect it to Nexcified#

Once it's registered, point it to your Nexcified hosting. It takes a few minutes: see Connect your domain to Nexcified hosting. We give you the exact nameservers or records to enter, and we check the connection for you.

Someone else registered your domain?#

If a previous developer or agency registered your domain in their own name, ask them to change the registrant to your company, or to move the domain into a registrar account you own. Open a support request and we'll tell you exactly what to ask for.
