What it is
Your address on the web, registered right.
A domain name is the address customers type to find your business. It's leased annually from a registry through a registrar, and we're an ICANN-accredited registrar, so you register at wholesale plus a small management fee, not the markup the consumer registrars charge.
Two things matter: the name itself, and the privacy of the registration. Every domain owner is in the public WHOIS database by default, which puts home addresses and personal phone numbers on the open internet. We include WHOIS privacy on every domain at no extra cost.
Beyond the registration, a domain needs DNS records to actually do anything, A records for your site, MX for email, TXT for SPF and DKIM. Our dashboard manages all of them in one place and connects to your File.Business email, website, and verification automatically.
What's included
At cost, with everything wired in.
No upsells, no markup on renewal, and the DNS is handled so the domain actually connects to the rest of your business.
Free WHOIS privacy
Your home address and phone stay off the public database, on every domain, always.
At-cost pricing
