Domain Names
All of our hosting plans and web sites feature your own domain name. This is where we publish your site. Your domain name is going to be your URL. You will own your domain name. Our domain name is technologyworksonline.com.

Here are a few tips for choosing a domain name:
Your domain name should be short and easy to remember.
Avoid long domain names. Use no special characters. Use no spaces.
Your domain name should describe your web site or business.
If your first choice for a domain name is already taken; try, try, again! You select your domain name on the second page of our check out process.


Your domain name is not permanent. We can register it for 1, 2 , 3 years at a time; but, it will have to be renewed periodically. ($15.00 per year) If you let your domain registration expire someone else may register your name. Let us handle your domain registration and we will inform you when it comes up for renewal. You choose the initial registration period (1, 2 , 3 years) to register your domain name when you check out on our buy now page. You can register more than one domain and have them all point to the same web site. To protect yourself from competitors using similar names. (yourname.com, yourname.biz, yourname.net, yourname.us)
