Choosing Hosting and Domains Without Regret

Who should own your domain, what hosting actually needs to do, and how to avoid being locked out of your own website.

Choosing Hosting and Domains Without Regret

The most expensive website problem we fix has nothing to do with code: a business that cannot access the domain registered years ago by a developer who has moved on.

Own your domain in your own account

Register the domain under a company email address you control and add your developer as a collaborator. Never the other way round.

  • Auto-renew enabled
  • Registration reminders in a shared calendar

Match hosting to traffic, not to fear

A brochure site does not need a dedicated server. Reliable shared or managed hosting with SSL, daily backups and responsive support is enough for most businesses.

“Whoever controls the domain controls the business online. Make sure that is you.”

Keep a handover document

Domain registrar, hosting login, DNS records and email provider written down in one secure place saves days when something breaks.

Working with Bluepeak

Bluepeak Technologies registers domains, sets up hosting and hands over full credentials as standard.
