Who manages your Domain Name

One of things we come across regularly are problems with domain transfers, or DNS configuration. It seems all domain registrars were not created equal.

From poor customer support that is slow to respond to punitive charges when you want to make a change or move the domain away from them.  Some registrars take the proverbial.

Even if your regsitrar is one of the better ones, as an IFAPortal website user, there is good reason to transfer your domain to IFA Portals. As a client you would see no difference, you can still use your current email services if you wish, there's no need to use ours if you have a setup that works.

You might also save a few pounds as we pay the renewal fees on co.uk domains, and don't pass these costs on as we view them as covered by your monthly hosting fee. 

Should you leave IFA Portals the domain can be moved away from us to another registrar at no cost. It only takes a few minutes to transfer a domain via IPS Tag change, which is why we find the charges some registrars levy less than funny.

But the real benefit to you is in the management of your website services. As IFA Portals grows so will our server infrastucture, which means from time to time there'll be changes to that infrastructure that may impact your website.  If we manage your domain name, we can ensure any changes are invisible to you from a service perspective, if we don't manage your domain we have to contact you and ask you to make the changes to your domain.  Not a major problem just not as efficient a process as it could be.
