Step-by-step guide to registering a .biz domain in South Africa, with local pricing, DNS setup instructions, and tips for choosing a strong business domain name.
Ready to get started? Register your domain with Allanux Web — .co.za is R109/year, the same price to renew, with free DNS management and WHOIS privacy included.
A .biz domain puts "business" right in your web address. It's one of the oldest alternatives to .com, and it remains one of the most straightforward ways to establish a commercial online presence. Registration takes about five minutes from search to checkout.
This guide walks you through registering a .biz domain in South Africa — from finding the right name to configuring your DNS records. All pricing is in South African Rand with no hidden fees.
Visit the Allanux .biz domain page and enter your desired name. The system checks availability instantly. If your first choice is taken, try your business name without spaces (acmesolutions.biz), add your city (capetownplumbing.biz), or use a descriptive keyword (smartpay.biz).
Add the domain to your cart and select your registration period — .biz domains can be registered for 1–10 years upfront. Create an Allanux account or log in, then complete payment. Everything is billed in Rand, so there are no surprise currency conversions.
Once registered, your .biz domain appears in your Allanux client area. From the DNS management panel, you can point it to your web hosting (A record), configure email delivery (MX records), verify your domain for services like Google Workspace (TXT records), or set up a redirect to an existing website. Most DNS changes are active within an hour.
Every .biz registration at Allanux comes with free DNS management (A, AAAA, CNAME, MX, TXT, SRV records), free WHOIS privacy protection (keeps your personal details out of public lookups), a domain management dashboard for nameserver updates and auto-renewal settings, and the ability to transfer your domain to another registrar after 60 days if needed.
