Domain Name Registration

The Domain name is the address of the website. For example www.domain-name.com.au is a domain name. Here domain-name.com.au points to the server IP address.

Whenever we access www.domain-name.com.au using a web browser (e.g. Internet Explorer, Chrome, Firefox etc.), it reaches the particular server (where site data and pages are stored) address & pulls the data to our computer.

E-Wave Web Design registers and manages your domain name while you maintain the ownership on the domain name.

Once we register the domain you will receive the access code to control and monitor the domain name.

We can work with your existing domain names or use another registrar on your request.
