Don’t just believe the latest TV ads, look around and read clients’ testimonials on how easy and simple to use the domain register. The reason behind why you should always own your domain name is simple. If you leave this up to the design firm, the ownership of your business name is with them. And if you ever decide to leave that company things can get complicated very quickly.
