Zone Reg · Since 2005

Built on engineering.
Driven by better ways.

From domain names and DNS to connected systems and live production, our work has always been about using technology to solve problems and improve how things work.

The engineering foundation

Make the process work better.

Our original engineering business was incorporated in 2002 and ran for 14 years. Web technology opened up new ways to make everyday work simpler, more reliable and accessible from anywhere.

Sometimes that meant a web form guiding someone through a process so they could get it right first time. Sometimes it meant automating a business process and making it available around the world.

The starting point was always a practical problem—and the opportunity to build a better way of solving it.

The Zone Reg approach

A domain name was only the beginning.

Inspired by ZoneEdit’s service portfolio and 123-reg’s approach to registration, Zone Reg brought domain names and practical DNS services together.

Register it

Help customers secure the domain name they needed, with registration and setup considered together.

Put it to work

Configure DNS to connect a domain to websites, email and a variety of other online services.

Automate the choice

Check Netim and Enom’s TLD prices every hour, then route the price and registration flow to the lowest-priced provider.

Our story

2002

Engineering first

The original engineering business was incorporated, beginning a 14-year chapter of using technology to solve problems and improve processes.

2005

Zone Reg begins

zone-reg.co.uk was registered, giving that practical engineering approach a home in domain registration and DNS setup.

The domain services years

Registration, DNS and connected providers

We were a Nominet registrar before moving to a combination of Netim and Enom. API integration let our shop compare their changing prices and offers automatically.

Today

The same strategy, a modern context

We maintain our own domain portfolio while our business focuses on streaming and recording solutions through e-businesshosting.com.

Connected systems · Live production

Different problems. The same engineering instinct.

Today, the APIs we work with include EVE Online’s ESI, zKillboard, Twitch and Facebook. The tools have evolved, but the strategy continues: connect useful systems, automate processes and build the tools our work needs.

Our streaming and recording work now lives at e-businesshosting.com, where that approach supports live production and ongoing development.

Zone Reg no longer sells or registers domain names for customers.

Our approach, then and now

Smart operations over brute force.
