About us

We focus on what we can do the best: domain names.


Why iWantMyName?

iWantMyName is a domain registration and management service for international domain names. We have started the site because we found other domain registrars far too difficult to use. Therefore our focus is on helping you to find a name and offering quick and painless domain registration.

We also make it really easy to connect domains to popular web services and applications. Have a look at the supported services to see what you can do with your domain. We will constantly add new stuff to our platform so also make sure to read our blog.

The site grew to a substantial business within a short
period of time and is developed and managed by:
