A Domain Name for your Community Group

You will need to register a domain name for your Community Group. Australian organisations and associations are entitled to register their names with the extension of either .org.au or .asn.au.. You will need to provide incorporation certification number in your application when registering domain names with these extensions.

Overflow offers the best prices for domain name registration for all Community Groups hosted with us on our domain name registration site.

If you already have your own domain name, include this in the application form and Overflow can manage the renewal when it is due.

If you are unsure what a domain name registration covers please see domain name registrations for further information.

 

Groups, Societies, Clubs and Organisations

Overflow requires applicants to be registered, non-profit associations or incorporated societies (with a valid incorporation number). You may also be suitable if you offer a service or support to the community. Additionally, groups like sporting clubs, neighbourhood watch and social services, as well as informal special interest / hobby clubs are also eligible upon application.

If you not a registered or incorporated group you can still apply for hosting. A decision will be made by Management based on the merits of your application.

Overflow reserves the right to make the final decision on web hosting provision.
