A domain name is your identity on the Internet. If you want people to find your organisation on the Internet, either to visit the web site or send you email, a memorable domain name will help. You may even consider registering your domain on the Internet to stop other organisations using it.

Furthermore, our registration process is performed on your behalf and the domain name is registered in your name. As such, your web site and email address remains portable should you ever wish to change service provider. If you already have a domain name registered with another Internet Service Provider and wish to change your ISP we'll transfer your domain name across to us quickly and smoothly for the nominal charge of £35.

Great, so now you've registered your domain what now? Assuming you chose a reputable ISP to perform the registration in the first place then you will have title to the name and the registration fees will have been paid. The next step is to ensure that the management of your namespace is straightforward and there are no additional fees for email and web forwarding.

Legend Domain Hosting provides all this and more. Web requests can be directed at one of our own high-performance servers or at an alternative host. There are several options for email forwarding from standard mail exchange records for which we will provide secondary mail server capacity right through to DMCS which delivers to an unlimited number of POP mail boxes administered via a web-based management console.

Includes all of the following for a single fee:

Domain registration Features

  • Search and registration of domain names on your behalf and in your name (or company name)
  • Payment of Domain registration fees for 2 years
  • Comprehensive and reliable domain hosting for 2 years
  • Automatic domain renewal ensures that your domain name will not lapse after the initial 2-year period
3 different email forwarding options:
  • SMTP - Standard MX preference entries direct email to your SMTP server or our back-up mail servers For remote access customers (I-Dial, A-Dial) we will install 'kick' services to ensure that queued mail is processed the moment you authenticate
  • POP - All domain mail is directed to a single POP mail box. I-Dial and A-Dial customers can perform further redirection based on username
  • DMCS - Unique to Legend is our Domain Mail Control System. Perfect for small, distributed organisations this hands you full control of your mail service including the ability to create multiple email accounts, auto-responders, email forwarding, mailing lists and more. The best way to understand DMCS is take it for a test drive
3 different web forwarding options:
  • INTERNAL - Web requests are directed to Legend Web Hosting and configured as a virtual server for your domain
  • EXTERNAL - Web requests are directed to a co-located or off-site web server which has been previously configured to accept requests for your domain
  • REDIRECT - Web requests are forwarded to your sub-let web site via our redirection server
There are no hidden fees or charges

Secondary DNS hosting
  • If you already have a domain name and run your own DNS, Legend can provide secondary DNS hosting for you, to ensure your domain never "falls off the net" - simply give us a few details. (If you don't have a clue what this is then you don't need it - it's for users who have their own DNS server and domains using their custom DNS.)

Important

If you intend to register a '.uk' domain through Legend, please make yourself aware of Nominet's terms and conditions. We suggest you print a copy for your reference and keep it somewhere safe.
