what we doDomain Names & Hosting
Domains & Hosting is part of 3 Legs Internet, an Isle of Man based Internet Solutions Provider. From this website you can get details of our domain name registration services and our small business hosting solutions.
All our hosting packages offer high quality web space for your website. Our Linux based servers are located in a UK data house to ensure high quality connectivity, support and security. The UK data house is a fully secured building with access only to authorised personnel with standby generator back-up in the event of power failure, environmental control and 24/7 onsite technical cover.
Domain Names
The first step for any business on the Internet is to secure a domain name. A domain name is your digital identity, for both your website address and your e-mail address, so choosing the right name is important.
In order to provide a high quality of service for domain name registrations, 3 Legs Ltd has set up a specialist division called "Domains & Hosting". We deal directly with UK, US and Manx registrars. This means that no other company is involved in registering and re-registering your domain name. As a result we have full administrative control of your name and do not need to rely on a third party.
