also…i’d rather not work with go daddy because i don’t know what i am doing there.
You can buy the domain with .com at $1.99 in the site http://www.tucktail.com/
I am pretty good with coming up with catchy titles. So for fun, I checked a list of for-sale domain names. Bought a cheap one, had an offer from someone who REALLY wanted it. Sold it for 15x the price. I didn’t ask why the person wanted it, but do you think this was just a fluke? I know there are all these sites that give suggestions on how to make a profit this way, but I see it more as an art form that can’t be taught. It doesn’t seem likely one can predict what domain name is going to just be the right one for a buyer. What do you think?
Well a lot of people do this, so I don’t think its a fluke. Some domain registrars offer services to make this more automated.
I want to buy a domain name and start a website and I want to do it myself…what is good/cheap software? and who is a good provider?
godaddy is ok, but for both hosting and domains, startlogic is the best
http://interkeys.com/tophosts.htm
you can host 50 domains in 1 at startlogic
hey, i’m doing my assignment and our uni server not supporting my files , so i need to buy domain and webspace….please help me…its really urgent…
That doesn’t make sense… Why would you need to buy your own domain & hosting? Talk to people at your school & tell them what’s going on…
If you insist on having your own domain & hosting anyway, I pre-paid 3 years of domain and hosting (great support and lots of tools) at JustHost: http://stats.justhost.com/track?c600bea4602055f10ffc8dff0f1c31215
in other words, all I want is the domain name, not any services- so the cheaper the better correct? as long as they are a legitimate company?
If you are going to register a domain then the best way to register a domain for free is to purchase your domain and webhosting together. In this way it is possible to get your domain for free. Some webhosting companies offer this as a gift . I am using bluehost webhosting for mine
http://www.bluehost.com/track/bluehostwebhosting/
Godaddy is the worlds biggest domain registrar.
The price of a .com domain is usually $9.99 but you can get it for $7.49 if you use the link at the bottom of this page http://www.hosttell.com
P.S. If you want to create a website you also have to buy web hosting.
I want to bulid a website for my buisiness. It needs to have pictures/photos that I can upload myself, different sections. Contact us section etc, nothing too fancy.
As you may know a domain name is just a name, not a real website. If you are going to create your website: 1- Buy a domain name. A domain name is a name you want to call your website (ex: www.yahoo.com). To get a domain name, you have to pay an annual fee to a registrar for the right to use that name. 2- Buy a web hosting service to provide your online space and enable you to get your website online at your purchased domain name.
If you want to start your website I recommend purchase your domain and hosting together. In this way it is possible to get your domain for free. Some hosting services offer this gift today.
As an experienced webmaster I recommend BH web hosting which I’m sure it would work for you and fulfill all your requirements. They have a really great offer for hosting & I have used them for over 3 yrs now, and have never had a single problem with them.

I bought some cheap domain names from a reseller and now, I think I’ve been scammed because they don’t seem to function anymore. All my sites are down.
This is very important to me.
Can someone please help me with some advice?
thanks.
Did the domain names come with web hosting? If you just bought domain names without hosting, then you wont see any pages, but you will ‘own’ the domain name - you can buy web hosting to make them work.
If you bought web hosting with your domain names, then you need to speak to them. It maybe your webhost may have a short term temporary problem keeping your websites live.
Im new to web building and want to choose a place cheap and reliable for hosting/domain packages
In the over-crowded hosting market, it can be a daunting task to find a cheap and reliable company to host your website. All the companies promise stable service, but which ones are best for you and your needs? There are several different ways to find hosting that suits your budget but also provides great service. Let me answer your question by showing you what you need to know about finding good web hosting.
My suggestion is do not buy web hosting based on trust from what you see on the web hosts main page. There is nothing worse than spending all your time and effort building a great web site only to find out that your web host is down all the time or you have to wait an hour on hold just to get customer service on the line to help you fix a simple issue. Visit http://www.top15hosting.com and look through the independent and customer reviews. Look at the rankings of the top rated and do some comparison based on your needs. Do a little research before buying web hosting and you can avoid throwing your money away. The common mistake when looking for website hosting is to just quickly browse the web and find the cheapest web hosting company they can find.
