Domain Names With Simply Web Services
A domain is your identity on the web. A memorable one helps clients and potential customers remember your business. One key thing to know: you don’t actually own a domain outright — you’re registering it for a set period. Let the registration lapse, and you lose your claim to it. Even if you’re not ready to build a website yet, you can reserve it today to keep someone else from grabbing it first.
A good web address can meaningfully improve your online presence. In fact, it’s easily one of the most important investments you can make in your business, and Simply Web Services can help. We’ll register it on your behalf, and you’ll always remain the owner with us. As a value-added service, we also monitor it and remind you when renewal is coming up.
We don’t just register it for you — as part of our ongoing support for web design clients, we’ll also watch the expiration date and give you a heads-up 30 days out. Ready to renew? Just let us know, and we’ll take care of the rest.
Pro Tip: If your business name is easily misspelled, consider registering those common misspellings too, and pointing them to your main site.
Pro Tip: If your business or organization has a name that is easily misspelled, you may want to consider registering that misspelling(s) and have that domain point to your main domain name.

Domain Name FAQs
Yes. Once payment is complete, ownership transfers to your organization.
When we register on your behalf, you own it — and remain the owner as long as the annual renewal fee is paid. We stay listed as the technical point of contact, but you're the registrant.
Every domain needs annual renewal. We track that for you and give you a heads-up as it approaches. We won't auto-renew unless we've already arranged payment and details with you in advance.
This varies by registrar, but standard practice is a 60-day hold period, giving you a window to renew. However, some companies (often overseas) watch for lapsed registrations and try to "snipe" them, hoping you'll pay a large sum to get it back. That's exactly why keeping your registration current — and having us monitor it — matters.

Pricing varies by TLD (the suffix, like .com or .net). Contact us for a quote on the specific one you want.
Yes — we accept most transfers, though a few TLDs aren't eligible. Just reach out before initiating one. Transfers to us include a complimentary 1-year extension.
