Your Own Domain Name
Having your own domain name can help your customers recognise and find your website easier. It is your online business address, uniquely identifying you on the Internet.
It supports your brand and helps promote your business, and your domain name can be included on business cards, brochures, billboards, and other promotional material. People will remember your name more easily and will help with searching when the domain name is the same as your business name.
Australian Domain Names
Australians are more comfortable dealing with a local company and an Australian domain name helps identify you as an Australian business. Getting an .au domain name lets your customers know you’re a legitimate Australian business.
