To have a web site designed & developed is
relatively common these days. In order for the web
site
to be found on the Internet, an address
needs to be assigned to the web site.
This address is called a Domain Name,
which is a unique name that identifies a web site on
the Internet & allows visitors to find it on the
World Wide Web. A typical domain name would be:
www.exite.co.zaThe following options
are available:
Top Level Domain Registrations

co.xx - any domain name that ends

which is the domain suffix for South Africa. |
