Call us now to get started: 1-303-393-1215. If you have any further questions, you can also contact us via email. We accept all major credit cards and offer secure online payment options.
Basic setup to allow for use of email and a placer page takes as little as two hours to accomplish. Full recognition of the domain on our server to all internet devices can take as much as 72 hours. This is referred to as the time it takes for your domain to "resolve".
domain name registration
DCIWebworks uses GoDaddy for domain registration and charges only the actual cost of registration for our management of your domain. Current domain registrations are about $10 per year per domain. We can register your domain(s) for you, or you can register them. If already registered, they simply need to have their DNS set to point to one of our custom nameservers. We can do this for you, as well.
If DCIWebworks manages your domain, it will be automatically renewed annually. Your domain is your sole property and the registration records will be set accordingly. DCIWebworks will be your administrator.
web hosting packages
DCI can offer any sized package, including full dedicated servers. For your convenience, we profile three shared hosting packages on our VPS servers for distinct levels of storage, bandwidth and processing power. All web hosting is sold on an annual basis with no setup fee. DCIWebworks guarantees your satisfaction or we will provide a complete refund when requested within 30 days of initial setup.
