Managing your domain names

The Internet is made up of millions of domain names that identify the companies and institutions involved in the global network. Among the best-known domain names: Google.com, Amazon.com, Swisscom.ch, Wikipedia.org, etc.

These domain names are just as important to a company as its name or the name of its products, so it's imperative to take care of them to avoid problems that could bring your business to a standstill. Just imagine: what if your website stops responding and your e-mail service stops working because your domain name has been taken by a third party?
