Wow!
RM80,000 for 10 Domains!
Long long time ago...
A client (Steven) told us about the BIG problem that he is facing for his company website. A website designer promised to help to improve his business visibility at
Google Search Result
. He was proposed to develop 10 websites at one time. The idea was so tempting and Steven agreed to proceed!
Then… you know la, the BIG problem surfaced. When Steven noticed the Google Search Result was not good, he decided to stop the project. When he requested that vendor to trasnsfer those 10 domains to another vendor, the actual problem surfaced! The website vendor claimed for
RM80,000
in order for them to release those domains to Steven. If not… Aiyo… Alamak!

Why the ownership of domain is important?
If you're not sure what is
Domain
, please
read
this.
Imagine. When we first started our business, we will have one dedicated moible number for business use. And, our business card will be printed with that mobile number. We will try our best to
keep the same phone number
, maybe as long as our whole life. It is because we understand that our mobile number is the entrance for our customers to start buying from us. Anyone who needs our products or services can always reach us using
the
SAME phone number
. Back to the topic
Domain
. In this generation, other than phone call, we also use
email
for comunication, especially for thos important messages. We also use
website
to represent our business in Internet. Same like our phone number, we hope that customers can always reach us through
the SAME email & website
. To do this, we have to make sure that we always use
the SAME domain
. Imagine again. We use the email & website for many years. Because of some reasons, we loss the domain and other competitor takes over. What will happen?
But hor… some companies lost their domain when they decided to change another web hosting vendor or web designer.
Or, some companies even agreed with the new web designer to change to another domain.

Why we paid but we still loss the domain?
Reason#1 We are not the "Actual" owner.
When we buy a car, we pay the installments every month. At the end, we own that car. It is not because we have PAID. It is because our name is stated as
Owner
in the car log book. Does it sounds logic? Same thing goes to
Domain Ownership
. Yes, we paid for the domain registration fee, and we paid for the web hosting fee. But, what is the "Log Book" for domain? And, is our name is used as Owner in that "Log Book"?
Alright. The so-called "Log Book" of our domain is the
Registrant Details
of the domain. As the owner who supposed to pay & own the domain, we have to ensure that the Registrant Details are using our
Company Name
and
Email
. When something really bad happened, we can still prove the ownership.
To know how to check, please
read
here.
Reason#2 Something wrong at the web hosting vendor side.
If we are not the "Actual" owner, but the vendor is willing to help us, nothing to be worried. It is still fine.
The real big issue happens because of these:
1.
The web hosting vendor is no longer in the business, due to closed down, retirement, etc.
2.
The web hosting vendor suddenly becomes “slow motion” when responding to our request.
3.
The vendor asked for an extreme big sum of amount as “domain transfer fee”.
4.
The vendor just doesn’t want to release the domain. Unknown reason.
So, when we want to start a website, the most important thing is the
Ownership of Domain
.

How to prevent losing domain owneship?
Now we know that our
Company Name
&
Email
must be registered as
Registrant
, in order to prove that we are the
Owner of Domain
.
Based on this general knowledge, we should be able to smell something during registration, if the web hosting vendor doesn't ask for our Company Name & Email. That's simple! Am I right?
We're going to show you a table of those
important details
we will be asked when we need
Domain Registration
.
There are too many types of domain, and we will focus on those popular in our region (Johor Bahru, Malaysia).
.com
For anyone with an email address. No proof of identity is required.
- Email Address
*Most common domain, and most troublesome when we need to perform domain transfer.
.com.my
For Malaysia company use only.
- Company Name
- Business Reg. No.
- SSM Copy
- Email Address
.my
For Malaysia company & Malaysian.
- Company Name
- Business Reg. No.
- SSM Copy
- Email Address
- Full Name as NRIC
- Malaysia NRIC No.
- IC Copy
- Email Address
.com.sg
For Singapore company use only.
- Company Name
- Business Reg. No.
- Singapore Address
- Email Address
- CorpPass
- Director SingPass
.sg
For Singapore company & Singaporean.
- Company Name
- Business Reg. No.
- Company Address
- Email Address
- CorpPass
- Director SingPass
- Full Name as NRIC
- Singapore NRIC No.
- Email Address
- SingPass
Important!
Don't let the web hosting vendor register a new email for you, and use it for
Domain Registration
.
It is meaningless to have a "Car Log Book" with your Name but the Name can be changed by anyone else.
To understand better about this, you may
contact us
.
Website can be changed. Design can be better. Features can be upgraded. But…
DOMAIN
is supposed to be used forever. Pay little bit more attention on our domain, and it will save us from a lot of hassles when our website & brand become popular in future.
