Protect Your
Business Domain Names

Have you registered your business domain names? To protect the business name you've worked so hard to build?

If not, you run the risk of someone else registering the domain names, which would also prevent you from using the most suitable domain name choice for your business website...

Unless you have the legal rights to a specific name, like a registered trademark, you would not be able to prevent competitors from buying and holding the domain names for your business.

Cybersquatting

There's also the practice of cybersquatting to contend with... Cybersquatters buy domain names with the intent of re-selling them at a profit.

Parking Domains

Even if you haven't made a final decision about building a website for your business, or the the domain names you want to use, it's quick and inexpensive to "park" your preferred domain names, to reserve them for future use.

We recommend Sitesell's Name Park It! (NPI!) for reserving domain names. It's only US$9.95 per year to buy a domain.

If the domains are possible domain names for your SBI! website, then it’s best to use Name Park It! to reserve your domains. You cannot transfer a domain for 60 days after initial registration, with any Registrar. If you use NPI!, then you can upgrade the domain to your SBI! site name, in DAY 5 of the SBI! process – there's no waiting time.

Consider buying the hyphenated and unhyphenated versions of your preferred domain names, if they are still available, for example: yourbusinessname.com and your-business-name.com.

Try to get the dot com (.com) domain names first, before buying ones with the other extensions like .net, .info, and .biz.

Other Benefits of Using Name Park It!

  • With NPI!, you get the benefit of using sub-domains.
  • You can also forward extra domain names you buy to your main website, when it's built.

So protect the business name you've worked hard to build!

To access NPI!, sign up as a SiteSell affiliate if you're not an SBI! owner. (Name Park It! is a service only available to SiteSell affiliates and SBI! owners.)

If you need advice with reserving and parking your business domain names, contact us for assistance.
