Considering purchasing a domain name?
A domain name is your virtual address on the internet. If you have a business, blog, or website—and you want people to be able to find it—you need to get a domain name so others can find it. The best way to do this is by registering a domain and connecting that domain with an online presence, like a website. There are many different types of domains available for registration.
