1. Domain Names

The first step in building your online presence is a good domain name. Your domain name is your name and address on the internet. You want a good name that is easy to remember and is easy to associate with your business.

If you already have a domain name, then you can use our hosting by setting your name servers for your domain name so that your domain name points to your MacHighway hosting space. This is done at your current domain register.

If you do not have a domain name yet, you can purchase one in your MacHighway client area.
