Your Own Web Address: A Maker's Domain Guide

🌐 Your own web address in five small steps. No sign-up, no jargon.

1

📣 Say it out loud

Someone hears it once at your stall. Can they type it?

yourname.comyour-name-art-shop-2026.com
2

🏷️ Pick the ending

.com works everywhere. In Australia, .com.au needs a business link such as an ABN, and a plain .au needs an Australian presence. UK makers often pick .co.uk.

3

🔎 Make sure it's yours to use

4

🔐 Own it, lock it

Whoever registers it owns it. That should always be you.

5

👉 Point it at your site

Your web person sends you one small record to add at your registrar. You add it, so the name never leaves your hands.
