Cape Town - For individuals who find it complex to register co.za domain
names, a company has developed an automated system of registrations that
promises to make the process painless.

"I wanted to make it easier for people to register domain names and to
manage domain names," CozaReg.com founder Rian Visser told News24.

The current system to register co.za domain names involves downloading a
text file, and e-mailing it to Uniforum, the registration authority.
Coreg.com automates the process, but Visser rejected suggestions that it
was unsafe.

"You can only make changes if you are the owner of a site. It's much
easier for technical people to update domain names."

He said that the site primarily catered to non-technical people who would
like to register their domain names to use for e-mail and small business
owners who perhaps wanted to create a website at a later date.

Some internet service providers may offer domain registration services to
their clients, but this CozaReg service would suit those who prefer to do
it themselves.

The website, which was launched in early February, is free to the public
and includes services such as checking to see domain availability on the
whois server.
