Why Do I Need To Register a Domain?

A domain name is your website identity. If you want to own a website address, then you can check its availability and register with us. Owning a domain name will allow you to create an affiliated email address, making your business and website look professional. However, you may just want to register a domain name to develop at a later stage, or to prevent another business or individual from taking it.

Domain Registration Fees

LetsHost offers affordable prices, starting from €2.99 a year to buy a domain. The only fee you pay is for the registration of the name, this can be from one to ten years’ ownership, depending on your preference.

Should you wish to keep your domain name beyond your registered period, you will need to renew it before it expires. You can secure this with a renewal fee to ensure it remains your property.

That’s it – we don’t impose any hidden charges.

Domain Registration Options

If you plan to buy a domain, LetsHost provides more than 50 supported extensions, including leading domain names. This includes .ie – one of the most popular Irish hosting web addresses and .com – the most globally recognised web address for business. We also provide .co.uk, .net, .irish, .me and .info among other popular options.

Tips for Domain Registration

With over 16 years’ experience in the market, here’s some useful tips for beginners:

  • Research your name – ensure it isn’t trademarked or protected by another company
  • Use an accredited registrar – LetsHost is one of the few companies that can legally register an IE domain name
  • If you plan to use social media it’s worth checking that your brand name is available on these platforms too – consistency is important
  • In a busy market, it pays to have a catchy name that people will remember. Shorter names are punchy, and less likely to be misspelt
  • Make it easy to find, avoid numbers and hyphens in your name
  • .ie is a popular choice if you’re planning to do business in Ireland, but if you’re looking for global reach, you may want to consider .com
  • Use keywords in your domain registration – think about what your customers might be looking for, so they can ‘stumble upon’ it
  • Think about adding domain extensions and misspelt versions to protect your brand
