Give each domain a specific job
Write down each name’s purpose: main website, campaign, product or a useful redirect. Check your primary .ch name first, then the others. An international brand may also need the same name under .com; .net is optional, not compulsory. Owning more domains does not automatically improve SEO. If several addresses should lead to one website, arrange suitable redirects with the service delivering that website instead of copying identical content across them.
Keep each term and offer attached to its domain
The €27 offer applies to each new .ch domain, covering registration and two future annual renewals. Two lasting .ch names for three covered years plus one temporary .ch name for one year total €27 + €27 + €9.99 = €63.99 for domains. Each prepaid allocation stays with its own domain, rather than becoming credit for another extension. Availability and registration are checked separately. New registrations and transfers of existing names have different rules and fees.
One selected mailbox may be enough for the order
Every cart item does not need its own mailbox. Select email only on the domain you will use for correspondence. In the three-domain example, €63.99 plus one mailbox month makes €66.69 initially, followed by €2.70 monthly for that mailbox. Three selected mailboxes would cost €8.10 a month. Review each choice individually. A redirect domain without email may need different settings from your primary communication domain.
Check ownership, DNS and confirmation for each name
Use the correct registrant and suitable nameservers for each domain. A name available during search may no longer be allocated when registration is processed. Successful payment is therefore different from confirmation of every domain. Check each order item and contact support about an uncertain registration before paying again. Afterwards, track expiry dates, prepaid renewals, DNS choices and any mailbox attached to each name.
Your practical checklist
- Give each name a clear purpose.
- Check the main domain before supporting names.
- Choose the term for each .ch item.
- Check that the cart contains no duplicate domain.
- Add only the mailboxes you need.
- Verify registration confirmation for every domain.
A useful question
Do three domains automatically receive a discount?
A bundle does not create an unstated discount. Checkout shows individual prices; the €27 offer applies only to eligible new .ch registrations selected for that offer.
Can I order .ch, .com and .net together?
Yes, when available. Each extension retains its own price, registration requirements and permitted term.
Must every name use the same nameservers?
No. Choose suitable DNS for each domain, prepare external zones and keep the records for each name clearly separated.
