5 Mistakes Made Registering a Domain Name
5 Mistakes Businesses Make when
Registering a Domain Name.
Which ones can jeopardize YOUR
Internet Identity and
How YOU can PROTECT YOUR Business
for less than $28.
Would YOU leave the FRONT DOOR to
YOUR Business WIDE OPEN ?
For someone to
come in and steal YOUR Property ?
WELL
YOUR NAME’S INTERNET IDENTITY IS AT RISK !!
The Internet has become a
very competitive industry, and is getting increasingly complex
and cut throat every day. You can no longer expect your Web Designer/Master to
keep
current and maintain a detailed understanding/knowledge on Important Web Site
topics
like Domain Names, Trademarks, Search Engine Optimization etc. Specialized
service
niches have evolved for companies like ours to fill the gap and support small
businessmen
in PROTECTING their Business Identity on the Internet.
Every Business Person
knows how much SPAM has effected and increased their COST
of doing business and decreased their efficiency during the last year.
But, few Businesses realize that the seemingly simple,
inexpensive, and routine task
of registering a Domain Name can put their Business at RISK if not done properly
and
monitored for current industry changes.
If you are relying on advice from your ISP, Web Designer, or friends then
THIS REPORT will SHOCK
YOU and OPEN YOUR EYES to the potential
vulnerabilities you are exposing YOUR BUSINESS to by not using the
services
of a Domain Name Specialist.
In order to illustrate and PROVE this point,
let me ask you 1 simple question.
1.)
Did any of your advisors suggest that you register your Business Name,
Product Names, or Family Names in the new .US Top Level Domain (TLD) ?
If they did, give them a bonus.
But, since I know
that you probably did not register
YOURNAME.US
either they did not tell you, or
you ignored their advice.
Either way
YOUR Business is AT RISK !
If you would like to learn more
details and requirements about the new
.US Domain please read the attached Press Release or go to:

How much
business revenue could you lose if your competitor registered
YOURNAME.US and
directed all web traffic to their Web Site ?
How about if an unscrupulous
pornographer registered
YOURNAME.US
and redirected traffic to a PORN Site, gambling site, partial birth abortion
site,
or some other undesirable site ? What would this do to your image/standing
in your community. What if a customer landed on this porn site and
thought
you were responsible for it.
Would you be personally
embarrassed ? Would you lose customers ?
How much would you be forced to
PAY to get YOUR NAME back ?
Yes, even if you have a
Registered Trademark Ô for YOUR
NAME it still will
COST YOU Thousands of dollars, months of lost revenue, and untold aggravation
to get it back.
ACTION: Why not spend $28 NOW
and eliminate all this potential
hassle.

Products, and Family Names in the .US Domain with

2.) Have
you ever checked YOUR official ICAAN (Internet Corporation for Assigned
Names and Numbers) Domain Name listing ? You Should !
Are YOU listed with YOUR
complete Name, Address, Phone Number, and
“Permanent Email address” , as the: Registrant Contact, Administrative,
Billing,
and Technical Contact. Or did your Web Designer or ISP just list their
company
for all contacts, and not even tell YOU ? Some unscrupulous Registrars leave
the
domain in their account which means that YOU DO NOT OWN the Domain, they
do.
This information is crucial to your Domain Name
Identity. This is where the
Registrar will email you 30 days prior to your account expiration date a renewal
notice. Every day thousands of Domain Names expire without being renewed.
One major reason is the information contained in this listing is incorrect.
Usually it is an incorrect email address of a prior web designer who changed
companies, or when businesses changed web designers or web hosts without|
updating this crucial information.
It can take several days or up
to weeks to get this MAJOR PROBLEM straightened
out, once you know there is a problem. How much business will you lose while
your
Internet Business is CLOSED. How much will this outage effect your short term &
long term customer relationships.
3.)
How angry would you be if your competitor received YOUR Business
&
Personal Emails instead
of you, and YOU didn’t even know they were missing ?
I own the Domains Rahall.com
and Rahall.US.
Last month I received 7
emails addressed to individuals NOT related to me and
not registered in my domains. These emails were for: Etickets for
International
Travel, a Best and Final, Real Estate Contract (with a 24 hour kick out
clause),
a Mortgage Approval letter (with account numbers & $ balances) , a very personal
love note + detailed Business sensitive information that I am sure the
senders
& recipients would NOT want anyone, especially their competitors, to receive.
Luckily for them I tracked down and forwarded these emails, in a timely manner,
to the intended recipients. The senders of some these emails thought that
Jeffrey Rahall had the email address of
Jeffrey@Rahall.US which was NOT correct.
How many of your business
associates and friends will send emails to
You@YOURNAME.US thinking it is going to YOU ?
If your sensitive Business
Information was sent to your Competitors/Newspapers,
without your knowledge, How much could this cost you in lost revenue $$ and
potential personal/business embarrassment?
ACTION:
Configure all of your Domain Name Email
accounts so
YOU receive all default Email messages. All emails, even misspellings,
abbreviations, nicknames ( Joseph, Joe, Joey ) should get delivered
to YOU not the Recycle bin or your competitor.
Domain-Names-R-Us.com provides
a user friendly Control Panel with
all of its accounts to allow you to quickly and easily manage all aspects of
your
domain including 50 Email Accounts, Email alias/redirect, and Email default
accounts.
We will personally help you in setting these redirections up, if needed.
4.) Did you know the process of transferring Domain
Names from one Host to another
is done automatically. If you
did not specify that you wanted to activate “Registrar Lock”
then someone posing as you and guessing your password (if activated) can
try,
(and sometimes succeed) in Hijacking your Domain.
You should also check to see if
your Auto Renew option is activated. This will allow
the registrar to renew your domain name 30 days in advance of
expiration.
5)
Have you or a customer ever experienced a message “WEB SITE NOT FOUND”
when your web site URL
was entered ?
One reason this could have
occurred is that your Host DNS was not on line at that specific
instant. That is why ICAAN requires hosts to have a minimum of 2 DNS
redundant servers
posting your information to the Internet that must be continuously
available 24/7. Another
reason could be your server “timed out” meaning it was to slow to serve the
information
up to the web, or too far from the internet backbone.
Most professional hosting
services like Domain Names R US Host their
customers crucial
DNS information on 4 high speed, high bandwidth computer servers, with
redundant
power & security backup, and access to 3 different major Internet
backbones, in order
to insure the most reliable and FAST connection and service 24/7.
6.)
ICAAN requires that you provide YOUR current Name, Address, Email
Address,
Phone Number, & Fax # that they then publish in the Publicly Accessible
Database.
Anyone with an Internet connection can get this personal information about YOU.
ACTION: Would you like YOUR
PRIVACY BACK.
For a small fee
Domain Names R US can provide you with a service called “ID Protect”.
This shields your private
information from hackers/abuse.
Well I promised to reveal to
YOU the top 5 Mistakes that Business make in registering
their Domain Names.
But I gave you 6. Why ?
Because my business philosophy is to always give the customer
MORE THAN I promised.
Why did I write this report ?
Originally I wrote it to provide an educational tool to provide
detailed information that my customers needed to know about Domain Names,
without
requiring personal consultation.
Now, I have turned it into a
marketing TOOL to solicit new clients.
If you are in the market for
Registering a Domain Name, which I know you are because
YOURNAME.US is at
RISK I hope you will consider ME to
register/host your
Domain Name accounts with.
I am a locally owned USA Domain
Name Registrar who will give YOU professional,
personalized service, unlike the New York conglomerates or even worse those
Registrars outside the USA.
I PROMISE: I will help you
Register/Manage Your Domain Names, update you on
current trends in the Domain Name Industry and provide tips on Protecting
YOUR INTERNET IDENTITY.
I PROMISE to EARN your trust and business.
One last tip. You do NOT have
to Host Your Web Page and your Domain Name with
the same company. I will be HAPPY to help you transfer the hosting of any/all
of your
existing Domain Names to my company, at no additional charge. You just pay the
normal fee for extending the current registration period by 1 year. We can just
change
the Name Servers to redirect all web traffic to your Web Page Host Server.

Hosting
Domain Names R Us at a very reasonable cost
and provide a referral to an excellent local Web Designer
Kim Bean .
I look forward to working with
