Domain Central is an Australian Domain name registrar, web host, and managed services provider.

Established in 2003, Domain Central entered the market as an Australian registrar of domain names and a web host.

Domain Central ranked 2nd in the Internet category, and 6th place overall in the Australian 2007 Deloitte Technology [1] Fast 50 awards, achieving 1,055% per cent revenue growth over the last three years [2]. The company also ranked 6th in the Internet category, and 41st place overall in the Asia Pacific 2007 Deloitte Technology Fast 500 awards.

The Deloitte Technology Fast 50 ranks the 50 fastest growing technology companies, public or private, based on percentage revenue growth over three years (2005-2007) and includes all related industry sectors: communications; software; semiconductors, components and electronics; life sciences; Internet; and computer peripherals.

One of the most successful strategies that helped the company achieve success has been the introduction of true 24/7 customer support via live chat. This highlights an interesting behaviour with consumers on the Internet; that despite searching for the cheapest price available for the commodity they are seeking, an Internet consumer will demand good support and expect high availability of the support services.
