Update on Domain Registration Issue

I’m not sure if this is a total coincidence but it was revealed a could of days ago that Nicholas Bolton’s domain company Bottle Domains was suspended, “due to a serious breach of its obligations under the registrar agreement”.

The breach is to do with personal details of clients (credit card details) being stolen from Bottle Domains and published for sale on the web. Allegedly Bottle Domains did not do enough to advise their customers of the breach and the possible consequences. This happened several years ago but recent events involving the BrisConnections saga may have stirred up a hornets nest somewhere.

Domain Registration – You do get what you pay for

One of the first things I looked for when I started to get Plyplema Design off the ground was a place to host my customers domains.  As many people do I researched for what would be the cheapest option to purchase the .com.au domains, I wanted value for my money and couldn’t fathom what could actually go wrong.

I came across name.com.au and was immediately attracted to the $20 price tag.  I was still a little skeptical so read around on some popular forums and noticed mix reactions.  The common theme being that they are great when it works but an absolute pain when things go sour.

Welcome to Plyplema Design

Welcome to my new (and first!) blog, Plyplema Design.  It is based from my new web design and freelance programming business I am in the process of starting.  You can check out the main site at http://www.plyplemadesign.com.au which was launched just a few days ago.

The business side of things will be targetted at website design and development with a focus on smaller businesses looking at taking the first step into gaining an online presence and those that have sites stuck in the dark ages.  My programming skills will allow me to also create custom database driven sites that many designers can’t deliver.
