Domains and DNS

A domain connects customers to your website and email, so small changes can have wide consequences. Seven Creative helps with domain registration, renewals, transfers and DNS administration, with attention to the services that depend on each record.

Who this is for

This is for businesses registering a new name, moving providers, reviewing renewal responsibility or preparing a website or email change. It is particularly useful when a domain was registered years ago and ownership, access or contact information has become unclear.

Scope and deliverables

Domain registration and renewal requirements; registrar and account access review; transfer planning; DNS record assessment; and coordination with website or email work. Privacy options and domain brokerage enquiries can be discussed where relevant, subject to registry rules and availability. No search-ranking benefit is promised simply because a domain contains a particular keyword.

How the work is approached

We first establish the domain, current administration and the change you need. Existing website, mail and verification records are considered before proposing edits. Transfers and expiry dates need checking early because timing restrictions may apply. Agreed changes are documented and relevant services checked afterwards, allowing for caches and the behaviour of different providers.

What this helps you do

Clear ownership and renewal arrangements can reduce the risk of a domain expiring unnoticed or a website move disrupting email. A concise DNS record history also makes future work easier. Registration, hosting and mailbox services are separate responsibilities even when managed together, and should remain understandable to the business owner.

Can a domain transfer interrupt business email?

It can if DNS or related services are changed without planning. We identify what must be preserved and distinguish moving the registrar from moving name servers or hosting. Never cancel an existing service solely because a transfer request has started. Share the intended change first so the appropriate sequence can be agreed.
