Registering a domain with www.crazydomains.com.au

1. Type www.crazydomains.com.au into your web browser

2. Use the search bar on the home page to search for your desired domain (see next slide)

The drop down menu in the search bar allows you to choose your extension. For most businesses, a “.com” or “.com.au will be most appropriate

Once you’ve chosen your desired domain, click the search button to check its availability.

We are presented with a list of available domains. Click “+Add” for any domains that you would like to purchase, and then proceed to your shopping cart.

Throughout the check-out process, most domain providers will try to upgrade you to additional services. In this tutorial – we will only upgrade to the email service. Say no to DNS upgrades, hosting and other services.

To add an email account to your domain, simply select the upgrade in the checkout process that suits you. If you only need 1 email address, the cheapest option will be suitable.

You can purchase the email domain for various lengths of time – you can renew the purchase on a yearly basis.

You will have to provide some basic information about your business to be eligible to purchase the domain name. (You can look up your ABN at http://abr.business.gov.au/)

Complete you purchase by credit card and decide whether you would like renewal to be automatically charged to your credit card at expiry.

Congratulations, you now own your domain name and company email!
