DOMAIN NAME REGISTRATION

The domain name is the specific name to be used for your website. For example, YourSite.com
is the domain name and http://www.yoursite.com is the complete site address or URL.
Choose as short a name as possible. The name can be the name of your company, your name
or the name of a product or service.
You will need to choose a domain registrar to register your name. You can also search
domain names to see if the name you've chosen is already taken.
The cost to register your name will be anywhere from around $9.95 to $20.00 per year. You can
usually save some money by registering for multiple years.
