DOMAIN NAMES & DNS
Your name online.
Properly connected.
Domain registration, transfers, renewals and DNS through Oceanic Design’s 20i reseller service, with help connecting the pieces.
MORE THAN A DOMAIN SEARCH
Give your business a clear address.
The domain is only the start. Website hosting, email and any external services all need the right records and a manageable renewal process.
Transfers & consolidation
Move an existing domain or bring several together for simpler administration. Transfer steps vary by extension and current registrar.
DNS & nameservers
Help connecting a website, mailboxes and third-party services. Existing records are reviewed before nameservers change.
Brand consistency
Discuss sensible variations and additional extensions, with a practical view of cost, administration and the names your customers will actually use.
A CLOSER LOOK
A little DNS knowledge goes a long way.
| Area | What it means for your business |
|---|---|
| A, AAAA & CNAME | These records connect a hostname to a website or service. The right choice depends on the target hosting setup. |
| MX & email records | MX records direct incoming email. SPF, DKIM and DMARC support authentication and should match the mail services in use. |
| TTL & change planning | DNS records are cached. A move needs a plan for timing, current records and the period when different networks may see different answers. |
| Transfers & ownership | Keep registrant and contact details accurate and agree who controls renewals. Transfer authorisation and expiry dates are checked before starting. |
USEFUL TO KNOW
A few questions, answered.
Do I have to move my domain to use your hosting?
Not always. A domain can remain with its current registrar while DNS points to a different hosting service. We’ll explain whether a transfer is useful or whether a record change is sufficient.
Can a domain transfer affect my email?
It can if nameservers or mail records change without preparation. We review the existing setup and preserve or update the required records as part of the plan.
