Selecting A Domain Registrar
You need more than an thought and hosting plot to set up a web
site. You also need a domain name. A domain name is your unique
address on the Internet. Cheapwebhostingreport.com, google.com,
microsoft.com, and yahoo.com are examples of domain names.
Many web hosting companies will offer to give you a domain name
when you sign up with them. This can be a fantastic deal, provided
they register the domain in your name. Sorry to say,
some hosting companies register the domain in their name.
That means that they own your address and they don?t have to let
you go your domain name to a further web hosting company. This
can be very terrible. It would be like someone else owning the name
of your company. So before you take advantage of free domain
registration with the hosting company you choose, be sure that
they register the domain in your name. If they do not say they
do, it?s probably safest to assume that they do not.
Fortunately, registering a domain name is simple and
inexpensive. Disparate a few years ago when one company had a
virtual monopoly on cash-making domain names, there are now a
large number of registrars to choose from and struggle has
lowered prices and increased the ease of domain name
registration.
There are two vital things to look for in a domain
registrar: reliability and location. No one knows exactly what
will happen if a domain registrar goes bankrupt. There are
supposed to be safeguards in house to protect domain registrants
from losing their domains, but you don?t want to be one of the
people testing these procedures, so a solvent, reliable domain
registrar is a must. Location is vital because domain
registrars are theme to the laws of the country where they are
located and some have been known to refuse to grant (or worse
yet, grant and then take back) domain names that are
unacceptable under the laws of their home country. A registrar
in the US may be your best bet if you have possible ?frankness of
speech? issues with the domain name (or the site inside in
some cases) you?d like to use.

Most registrars now offer all sorts of additional features ?
like web hosting. Most of the web hosting plans we?ve seen at
domain registrars are feature poor and over priced. If you are
tempted by one, reckon twice and check out other hosts before
buying web hosting from your domain registrar. Many will try to
make it sound like it is a lot of extra work to host elsewhere.
It isn?t. All you have to do is point your domain account at the
registrar to the nameservers your web hosting company gives you.
This involves typing two urls. It is not hard at all.
My clients and I have had excellent luck with the following three
domain registrars.

Our current first choice of an affordable, reliable, US-based
domain registrar is one of the most standard domain registars, GoDaddy. They can register .com, .net, .org,
..biz, .info, ,ws, .us and .name domains for .95 a year or less
(and there are additional discounts when you register for
multiple years). If you already have a domain name and are still
paying dollars a year for it, you can reduce your domain
costs by transfering you domain to GoDaddy and paying just .95
(for most types of domains) to renew your domain for an
additional year.

Dotster.com is our following choice of an
affordable, reliable, US-based domain registrar. They can
register .com, .net, .org, .biz, .info, .us and .name domains
for .95 a year (discounted when you register for multiple
years). If you already have a domain name and are still paying
dollars a year for it, you can save cash by transfering
your domain to Dotster and paying just .95 to renew your
domain for an additional year.

Many of my small business clients like Yahoo Small Business. They only register
..com, .net, .org, .biz, .info, .us domains and they charge .95
a year, but many small business people seem more comfortable
with a major name brand ? and Yahoo qualifies
