First lesson today is How To Register A Domain Name.
I want to give you some information before you rush off and register a domain name.
So what is a domain name? A domain name is the home of your website and ends in extensions like .com, .net, .org, .info, .biz, .us, .tv etc. Today there are many extensions available, however, in my opinion .com, .net and .org are the only ones you should focus as the other extensions don’t rank so well on search engines. If at all possible you should try and get .com as this is still the most popular by far.
I am going to recommend 2 domain name registers:
NameCheap.com and WantCheapDomains.com
My personal preference is WantCheapDomains.com, for no other reason than I have been using them for more than 9 years and have found them to be extremely helpful when I needed advice and over the years of dealing with them I have not been faced with any hidden costs.
Watch the video on how to register a domain name and then go and get yourself a good domain name. This is the FIRST step to building your online business.
