If you’re new to the domain world, you will likely start with a single domain name for your business. As your business grows, you accumulate more domains for promotion and protection over time. If and when you get to the point where you manage a domain portfolio consisting of hundreds and even thousands of mission-critical domain names, you’ll want to ensure that you are keeping them with a registrar you can trust.

Not many domain registrars have the advanced security and domain management capabilities required of a corporate domain registrar—101domain does. But the problem with many corporate registrars is that they operate like a corporation—101domain doesn’t. We act like your partner. Here’s how (and why) we do things differently.

1. We don’t lock our clients into contracts.

We want to work with people who want to work with us, so we don’t lock our clients into contracts and charge termination fees if they try to leave. Although domain names are registered annually, you can transfer your domains out of 101domain during that time. Other corporate registrars use domain registrations as an excuse to lock you into a contract that requires a 90-day notice before your registration period ends or incurs hefty termination fees. 101domain gives you the grace and flexibility you need.

2. You get exclusive access to new domain launches.

Thousands of top-level domains exist, and new domains are launching every year (like .kids domain). A benefit of working with a corporate domain registrar like 101domain is getting early access to register your trademark during new domain launches. If you register your trademark with the trademark clearinghouse (something we can help you do), then you will be the first to know about new domain releases. Additionally, you will get exclusive rights to secure your name before the general public.

3. We handle domain registrations in-house.

Many organizations practice defensive domain registration, especially with country-code domains. However, country domains can be complicated to register, and some even require documentation. We help clients satisfy local presence requirements with our global trustee services. Our top-level domain portfolio is so robust that other corporate registrars use our domain registration services that they can’t provide for their clients.

4. You can do everything all in one place.

Finding a single registrar that can satisfy your needs can be a challenge. You want a registrar that carries a large selection of domains, offers transparent pricing, provides excellent service, and has the products and services you need, so you don’t need to spread yourself amongst various service providers.

In an ideal world, you would register domain names where you get your hosting, email, and collaboration services. You would register multiple domains for brand visibility and protection, and if someone infringes on your trademark, you could turn to your registrar to help you take action. A perk of corporate registrars like 101domain is we are experts in enforcement services such as cease & desist, DMCA takedowns, UDRP and URS to help you recover domain names. 

We also help clients prevent getting in a situation such as this in the first place with domain monitoring, domain blocking, and acquisition services. If your registrar can’t do this, now is the perfect time to transfer to one that can. That is—unless you are bound to a contract, in which case, we recommend leaving as soon as you possibly can without breaking your contract.
