If you registered your name for a year, expect to receive the invoice within 30 days of its expiration date directly from the company that you registered your domain with initially.

Q: How Do I Design a Web Site?
A: You will need to either pay someone to design it for you, learn HTML (HyperText Markup Language) coding to create your web pages, or get a WYSIWYG (What You See is What You Get) software program (eg. Microsoft Frontpage), which will allow you to create your web pages without learning the HTML coding.
Domainsrush can register your domain, design your website and optimise it for search engines, upload it to your web space and submit it to the major search engines from £500 p.a. for a 4-5 page website.

Q: How Do I Put My Web Pages On Your Server?
A: You will need to use a FTP (File Transfer Protocol) software program or the publisher feature that comes with your web page program. For example, Microsoft Frontpage will come with its own web page publishing feature that gives you the ability to copy your pages from your computer to our server. A popular FTP program is WS_FTP.
When using your FTP program or Publisher, you will use the username and password that we provide you to access the server. For more help on FTP Click Here.
