Does your web design company in coimbatore own you?
This is a growing concern amongst many business owners. Does
your web design company in coimbatore own you? This may be possible if you've
allowed them to host your web site for you and also register your domain name
for your company.
Web design companies have a lot of control over their
clients. I refer to this as "False Power". The sad reality is that
most of their clients don't even know they are stuck in this potentially
painful predicament. This power is usually exercised when a client of a webdesign company in coimbatore finds a better deal on hosting for their web site
and they simply want to switch their hosting provider, or when the "client"
wants to upgrade their web site for a better rate than their current web
development provider is offering
Here's what usually happens to so called "traitor
clients":
- Current web design company sends their client a hefty bill
for switching
- The web design company cancels their client’s account
- They may point the domain name to another place
- They sometimes take down the entire website until further
notice
You get the point! Too much power is given to the web designcompany in coimbatore. I truly believe that it is your right to shop for better
prices and it is your right to own your domain name even if you didn't have a
hand in registering your domain name.
As the owner of the website, you put your trust into your
web design company to represent your business appropriately and honestly, only
to find out down the road that honesty isn't in their vocabulary.
I truly believe there should be a law against web design
companies that can be summarized as such: For any domain name registered by the
web design company on behalf of their client, the domain name may not be
disputed or need to be disputed, the domain name is automatically owned by the
client and is automatically bound by their web development contract.
With every new venture, there is always going to be
loopholes. From the aforementioned example, what if there is no contract? If
you are reading this and are in the process of searching for a web design companyin coimbatore, please ENSURE that you have a contract drafted, outlining
everything you are entitled to and that you have sole rights to your domain
name.
See what most business owners fail to realize is that their
domain name is as important as registering their business name itself. I will
repeat that... Your domain name is "hot real estate", would you want
someone else owning your property?
The same applies for your domain name. Don't get caught with
your pants down while asking, why don't I own my domain name. It is as
important as owning your own company name. There are people out there searching
for suckers to take their domain name - don't be the one who gets caught!
