GoDaddy is excellent and the prices are quite good (less than US$ 10 for one year).

You can always go to domain registrar, such as mydomain.com, godaddy.com, dotster.com, dynadot.com, domain.com to register domain you like. Everyone of them provide almost the same service just the price may different. You can make compare. Next, you need to search and domain whether is available or not. If it's available, purchase it immediately before other is grab. You can use credit card or paypal to make payment. However take note not every registrar is accepted paypal , like godaddy.com need u to make verification but mydomain.com, dynadot.com, domain.com, dotster.com not required u to do so. Also, I make a post before where mydomain.com have a coupon code "htmli.info" (without "") which give u 15% off of your entire order with them. You can save some money from just enter the coupon code, great right?

Peace.

You want to buy a domain? You need to find a registrar and pay them, and they do it for you. I use www.namecheap.com and I recommend that to you. Godaddy is also another huge registrar. You can find coupons at www.retailmenot.com which will reduce the price.
After you pick a registrar, you check if the domain you want is available. If it's registered by someone else, or one of those annoying search engines, then it's not available. You check if your domain is available by performing a WhoIs search. Registrars have this search facility on their websites. Different registrars have different pricing for different domains. For example, a .com will cost more than a .info . But the price will vary at different registrars.
If you have searched for the domain you want at a registrar you like, buy the domain. Usually you can use paypal, which is an online secure payment system.
After you have bought the domain, you need to point that domain at your webhost's nameservers. For example, frihost's server 2 nameservers are ns1.frih.net and ns2.frih.net. After that, you must login to your control panel and create your domain and configure it. How to do this is in a sticky at this link: http://www.frihost.com/forums/vt-43309.html .
Your website should be up and running!

Hope all goes well. may God bless you Smile

I suggest you to purchase a domain at www.namecheap.com. They give out domains and you just pay something like $9.99 a year.

Use GoDaddy with coupon code OYH3 and the price will reduce to 6.95$..

I love www.domainsbot.com. I think it is one of the best free services on the net and I use it on an almost daily basis (yep, I‟m a self confessed domain junky!).

Basically what it does, is it will allow you to „on the fly‟ find domains that are to your liking. Say your niche is in the „dog training‟ niche.

You can go into www.domainsbot.com and type in say “dogtrainingreview” and it will come up with whether or not that is available (the .com, the .net, the .org etc.)

This is probably the fastest method I have found for finding an on topic domain name.

When you are picking a domain name, remember that it should be easy to type in. Short and memorable is important as well but these days with domain „squatters‟ it‟s pretty hard to find the domain you want.

If you find something short and memorable and totally related to your topic, excellent. Otherwise, go for „easy to type in‟, or „easy to remember‟. The only time I wouldn‟t have an „on topic‟ domain name, is if I were building a brand name of sorts.

When you are building a brand name you don‟t necessarily need an on topic domain name, it can just be the name of your site. As you build your brand, your name becomes synonymous with what you are promoting/teaching (Look at McDonalds… who would have thought that McDonalds would be a good brand name… now every kid in the world knows what it is!).

Both Godaddy.com and namecheap.com are good registrars. You can buy a .com domains for around 7 used at Godaddy.com but it would get like 9 usd at Namecheap. If you haven't register a domain your own before then try one of them/

The good news is Godaddy.com now offers One 1 yr $1.99 new .com, .us, .mobi, .biz, .net, or .org domains (not currently owned) for the first year.
