Domain Name Registrars
Registering a domain name for your website can be done with any web host. In order to get a domain
name for your website, you will have to, first, choose a domain name and check
your domain name availability. You can check availability through any domain
name registrar.
ICANN (Internet
Corporation for Assigned Names and Numbers) has a list of accredited domain name
registrars. Choosing a registrar off the ICANN list ensures that the domain
name you have chosen is officially a part of the internet. You can also
check for domain names that have
expired or have been
deleted. You cannot directly register a domain name with ICANN...you
must designate a domain name registrar to have your domain name registered with
the appropriate registry.
Next, you will have to pay a fee through a domain name registrar to have your name
registered with
Internic (Internet Network
Information Center). You can register your domain name from 1 to 10 years. If you
are advertising a business, you may want to register your domain name for longer
than a year. The yearly fee ranges from around $15 to $35.
Registering Your Domain Name
When registering a domain name for your website, make sure you are listed as the owner of the site and, also as, at least
one of the technical contacts. Some web hosts will require that they be
listed as a technical contact also. Some web hosting services will register your
domain name for you, as part of their service...but again, you will want to be
sure they list you as the owner of the site, so you have full control over the site.
Visit the most
popular and inexpensive domain name registrar...the
World's Largest Registrar - GoDaddy.com.
Go Daddy has been ranked #1 for the past couple of years now.
There are number of web hosting providers that will register a domain
name for "free"...in fact, some even offer "free" domain names for life. They
will renew your domain name each year as long as you continue to stay with
them. Web hosting providers will be discussed in my next topic.
Once you go through the easy registration process (entering details like your
real name, e-mail address, company name if applicable, and pay your fee with a
credit card or through PayPal, your domain name should be available within
48 hours or less.
