It All Starts With A Domain Name

Domain name is the address of your website that people type in the browser URL bar to visit your website.

In simple terms, if your website is your office, then your domain name will be its address.

As said above, Domain name is like your website’s street address, whereas Domain hosting is like your website’s actual home — where all the files, images, and other info actually lives. Your site needs both an address and home to be up and running, but they are definitely two different things.

So Domain Registration is the process of registering the address while Domain hosting is the actual house/space where you will put the items including files, images, database etc.

With Ecobiz Limited, buying a domain name is very straightforward. Simply use the search bar at the top of this page to check domain availability, then follow the prompts in order to complete the domain registration process.

Domain Privacy and security is as important to us as it is to you. Without domain privacy, your private and sensitive information (which may include your name, address, and contact numbers) may be collected and displayed in ICANN’s WHOIS database when you register your domain. Domain privacy ensures that these details are hidden from the public view. Our Domain Privacy + Protection package will make ICANN display our contact information instead of yours.
