Plus: You order everything from one single source so that you and your customers can address all possible questions to one single contact: the epages support team. Domains There are many good reasons to have an own domain especially for an online merchant. To be found easily and to have control over it are only two of them. In the process of setting up your individual order path, we will ask for a domain where your customers will then be able to reach your e-commerce offering. You can choose to use a pre-registered domain or purchase a new one. epages currently offers the following domains that you can also re-sell:.com.de.at.ch.net.org.biz.info.eu.asia Design & Consult Packages The first impression counts.
