Secure and Manage Your Corporate Domain Portfolio

Most small businesses have domains registered in someone else's account, pointed at the wrong DNS servers, and set to auto-renew on an expired card. We audit, consolidate, and manage your domain portfolio so it doesn't become a crisis.

What's included

Everything you need, none of the upsell.

Real deliverables, with the boundaries written down. So you know what you're paying for and what counts as extra.

Audit

What you own and where it lives.

Full inventory of registered domains, registrar accounts, expiry dates, and DNS configuration. Most clients find domains they forgot about.

Brand Protection

.ca and .com at minimum.

Your primary name registered in both major TLDs plus common misspellings. Defensive registration before a competitor or squatter gets there.

DNS Management

Correct records, documented.

MX, SPF, DKIM, DMARC, A, CNAME, and TXT records correct and documented. So your email deliverability and website routing work as expected.

Transfer and Consolidation

One account, your control.

Domains scattered across old registrars or a previous web developer's account transferred to a registrar you control. Auto-renew on your card.

How it works

The order we work in.

A clear sequence so you can budget time, money, and risk against the work.

Step 01

Frequently asked questions

What is corporate domain registration?

Corporate domain registration involves the professional management of a company's web addresses to ensure security, compliance, and brand consistency. Unlike retail registration, our service focuses on centralised oversight, preventing accidental expirations and protecting against unauthorised changes. We help businesses in BC and Alberta maintain control over their entire portfolio of extensions, ensuring that every domain reflects the corporate identity while remaining technically sound and secure.

Why should I move my domains to Northstar IT?

Moving your domains to Northstar IT allows for seamless integration with your existing IT infrastructure and cybersecurity protocols. We offer proactive monitoring, multi-factor authentication for domain changes, and local support from our experts in Prince George and Vancouver. By bundling domain management with our managed services, you eliminate the risk of forgotten renewals and gain a single point of contact for all DNS and hosting requirements.

How does domain management improve cybersecurity?

Effective domain management is a cornerstone of a strong security posture. We implement DNSSEC to prevent cache poisoning, manage SPF and DKIM records to stop email spoofing, and utilise Anycast DNS to improve resilience against DDoS attacks. Our team also monitors for domain squatting and potential brand infringement, providing a comprehensive defence strategy that protects your digital perimeter across the Yukon, Alberta, and British Columbia.

Can you handle regional domains like .ca or .com?

Yes, Northstar IT supports a wide range of top level domains including .ca, .com, .net, and specialised corporate extensions. We understand the specific residency requirements for .ca domains and ensure your registration remains compliant with Canadian Internet Registration Authority (CIRA) policies. Whether you are a local shop in Kamloops or a regional firm in Edmonton, we provide the technical expertise to manage your domestic and international domain assets efficiently.
