Why Use Our Products?

SportingDomains.com is a USA-based reseller of domain names, web hosting, and related services. We are NOT an ISP (Internet Service Provider) that provides dial-up or broadband Internet access. Instead, you can use our products and services regardless of the service provider you have chosen for your Internet access.

There are several key advantages to choosing SportingDomains products and services over similar alternatives available from your ISP. For example, the most important distinction is that our services are based upon the premise that you legally own the domain name that you choose for your website or email account. This provides important portability, security, and flexibility in the long-term managing of your web presence.

Let's say that you have created a brand-new website with the imaginary URL address of "http://myserviceprovider.com/members/website/yourname/" and create the email address "yourname123@myserviceprovider.com."

Obviously, visitors to your website can more easily remember an easier URL address like "http://yourdomain.com." Likewise for a simplified email address you can create like "you@yourdomain.com."

However, the most important aspect may come into play at a later time. If you ever decide to change your ISP from one service provider to another, you may be in for a shock. Not only is your ISP-linked email address forced to change, but your ISP-provided hosting address vanishes along with any related links to your site from other sites on the Internet.

This is why many ISPs offer "free" hosting and email accounts. The cost is not in the short term, but rather in the long term, as many customers are forced to stay with their current ISP to avoid the situations described above.

In contrast, SportingDomains customers have a great deal of portability and flexibility by owning their own domain names. Frankly, if you don't like our products, pricing, or related support - it's quick and easy to transfer your domain name and hosting services to one of our many competitors. We plan to earn your business with superior products and 24/7 support, but it should be comforting to know that you have the flexibility for the future.
