Below are some common questions and answers about the process of registering your domain name. Please take a moment to familiarize yourself with the information.


Q: Why would I want a domain name?

A: Having your own domain name is a prestige thing. Having a custom website address is pretty cool, and exciting, though it is certainly not required. Remember your domain name is just an address, and most visitors to your website will never notice your address. If you plan on doing any advertising outside the Internet do drive traffic to your website, having a custom domain name that is easy to remember can often be quite helpful.

Q: Will a domain name make me more successful on the Internet?

A: Probably not. The Internet is a point and click environment. Most traffic from the Internet will come from the Search Engines or links from other marketing efforts. Your keyword phrases, title, description and web sites content are more important factors in marketing your site on the Internet. Most visitors to your site will never notice the address. Don't count on your domain bringing you any traffic at all. It is a prestige issue, not a marketing or promotion issue.

A: The registration fee for a ".com" domain name varies from $9.00 to $35.00/ year. You can register a domain name with any one of the hundreds of registration services on the Internet.
