Your Company Domain Name: Tips, Traps, and the Thirty-Day Plan (Everything A CEO Needs To Know About I.T.)

By IT Support 101 Inc.

A business owner went to renew her company domain and discovered the login credentials no longer worked. The account was registered to her former I.T. contractor's personal Gmail. He had set it up six years earlier, the relationship had ended badly, and he was not returning her calls. The domain was in his name. She was looking at the potential loss of her email, her website, years of Google reputation, and her customers' ability to find her.

This situation is more common than most business owners realize. And it is almost entirely preventable.

Your Company Domain Name explains everything a business owner needs to know about the one piece of digital infrastructure that everything else depends on.

Written in plain English for the CEO or business owner who has never thought carefully about domain ownership, this guide covers the full picture: what a domain name actually is, how ownership gets lost, how to verify you actually own yours, how to set it up correctly, what you should be paying, how to protect it from hijacking, and what to do when things go wrong.

Inside, you will find:

Your domain name is not just a web address. It is the root of your email, your brand, your online reputation, and your digital identity. This book makes sure it belongs to you, clearly, securely, and permanently.
