Again and again we advise our clients and business owners that they should register their domain name to secure their online identity. Registering your Business Name with the Companies office is not good enough.

That only means that you intent to trade or might trade using that name. It also allows you to therefore now register the actual irish domain name. So now you contact us to register the actual www.your-name.ie

Many companies are under the impression that once they have register at the CRO that that’s it !!!

Sounds laughable but is actually very serious as it often leads to law suits and court cases. They are either misimformed by so called “Internet Expert” (nowadays that’s anyone with a bebo page!) or they are just not up so date with business today.

If you are thinking about setting up a business or a website for your business give us a call to get all the options available to you.

  1. Hi all,
    I have been asking around and cannot get a straight answer.

    If an IE domain says in the whois exp date is at eg 01 January 2008. When will this actually drop ?

    A competitor of mine has a name that is going to drop soon I hope.
    Thanks

  2. Hi Dessie,

    Once the expiry date shows a certain date it can then go into “purgatory” for 60 days till it is actually fully back on the market.

    We often come across issues for Irish domain names real birthdays, as the IEDR can have one birthday and the registrant can have another if the domain was ever transferred then it can then carry a “new Birthday” .

    This is a common . . . whats the word. . . “trait” of Blacknight for instance.

    Regards

    Dave
