If your business has an Ireland-oriented online presence, or if you want to tap into the Irish market with your services, registering an .IE domain name would be the obvious choice given that Irish customers trust .IE-ending site names more than site names ending in another extension.
With NTC Hosting, you can get a new .IE domain name at an exclusive price and enjoy full control over it.
.IE Domain Registration Services
The official ccTLD for the Republic of Ireland - .IE, was first launched back in 1988. Since its inception, it has been surrounded by strict registration regulations, meaning that there is virtually no risk of cybersquatting and that every .IE domain owner is legitimately connected to Ireland.
Another advantage of these strict regulations is that .IE-ending site names are widely trusted.
In order for an .IE domain name to be registered, the latter must correspond to the registran very name, or at least be a variation of it. The registrant must also provide a utility bill or a passport as proof of identity.
The same principle also applies to businesses and organizations - they too can only register domains that are similar to their own names or trademarks. Companies must present a VAT number, charities - a NIC number, etc.
With NTC Hosting, you can register an .IE domain name for only $19.00 for 1 year.
Managing .IE Domain Names with NTC Hosting
We have always strived to ensure that our clients have an easy domain management experience without sacrificing anything of functional importance. Our efforts have culminated in the creation of the Hepsia Control Panel.
This custom-built tool has been designed from the ground up with a single goal in mind - to make complex tasks simple. The Control Panel-integrated Domain Manager - the one and only place you need to visit to satisfy all your domain administration needs, reflects that goal. It allows you to quickly modify your WHOIS details, to lock/unlock your domains, to edit your DNS settings, etc. Plus, you'll be able to effortlessly manage multiple domains at a time.
If you also have a hosting account with us, you will be able to manage both your .IE domain name and your website with ease from one and the same place without having to switch Control Panels.
