Register
Choose a name that is easy to type, say, email from, and keep as the business grows. Keep the registration in an account the actual owner can recover.
Domains
Your domain. Your account.
Register, transfer, renew, and manage DNS alongside your hosting without treating the domain as an afterthought.
Domains
Registration, transfers, renewals, DNS.
Transfer
Move an existing domain into your DotMoose account without changing hosting or DNS unnecessarily. A registrar transfer and a nameserver change are separate operations.
Renew
Keep expiry dates and renewal billing visible next to the services that depend on the domain, with current account recovery information and renewal notifications.
DNS
Manage the records that point websites, mail, verification services, and other hostnames. Small DNS changes can affect multiple systems, so preserve the current values before a migration.
.CA and Canadian identity
A .CA domain can be a useful Canadian signal, but registration is subject to Canadian Presence Requirements. Choose the registrant category that actually applies to the domain owner.
Security and ownership
Use multi-factor authentication where available, protect account recovery, keep registrant details current, and avoid leaving a core business domain in an employee or agency account the business does not control.
Domain decisions
Separate the registrar, DNS and hosting layers.
A domain can stay at one registrar while DNS is hosted elsewhere and the website moves to a new server. Understanding those boundaries makes transfers and migrations much safer.
Registrar
Holds the domain registration, registrant information, transfer state, expiry, and nameserver delegation.
Authoritative DNS
Answers with the A, AAAA, MX, TXT, CNAME and other records used by websites, email, and services.
Hosting
Runs the website, application, mailbox, or other service the DNS records point toward. It can change without transferring the registration.
