Why purchase your own domain name?

Owning your own domain name gives you portability!

You may have seen email addresses like sarah982z@ozemail.com.au which include the ISP's domain name.  The problem with this type of email is that if you decide to change from one ISP to another.
Unlike phone numbers there is no directory assistance, or recorded message telling you the new email address or website, the email is just sent back as "user unknown" - end of story. 

A name like sarah@smith.id.au or info@mybusiness.com.au can be transferred to different ISP's as often as suits your needs.

Protecting your domain name

Another reason to register your domain name now is so that someone else doesn't register the name before you. 
Names are issued on a first come first serve basis, and there is probably nothing you can do if someone else gets your domain name before you.  This is a particular issue for business, where a competitor may have a domain name similar to your trading name.
Even if you don't expect to have a website or even use email for some time it is still better to have your domain name sitting in the wings for when you do.

Domain Names for Individuals
(e.g. smith.id.au or sarah.id.au)

Id.au is reserved for the people of Australia to create
their own online identity.

Id.au is the first time Australian individuals have been allowed to purchase domains under .au which has up to now been restricted to businesses and other legal bodies.

eNames is offering URL and Email redirection so that consumers can immediately take full advantage of id.au domain with no change to their current Internet setup.

This is a key differential between our offering and others in the marketplace, you can buy an id.au from eNames and forward all your email to your existing mail boxes and web space with no changes in ISP or Hosting company.

Domain Names for Business

.com.au is used by commercial entities such as companies with an Australian Company Number and businesses registered with
State governments.

Many consumers attempt to guess an Internet Address by typing www.Company-Name.com.au into their web browser.

Register your name before it is lost to a competitor!
