How to Setup A Domain Name With Godaddy ?
Today I'm going to show
you , How to buy a web address ? or what we call a domain name . All right , so let's
go ahead and get started , so here we are in the home page of GoDaddy ( the most useful Web Hosting Company ) and
basically you're going to start with a domain search . You're going to click on
the search box , you're going to type in a name that you are interested in
purchasing in this case .
How to start a Domain Search ?
I'm going to try to
purchase " Anthony trans " name . i'ma type that in and I
click go alright , so here's the results and it's going to tell you what's
available , and it says right here
sorry Anthony Tran
comm is already taken .
So unfortunately , as much as I highly recommend a comm
name , I'm going to have to settle for something else . Now you can try different
variations to see if you can find a dot-com name , but in this tutorial I'm going
to go ahead and just purchase the Anthony Tran dot biz , which is down below and
it's priced at 799 .
I'm going to go ahead add that to my cart , and it's going to
ask you if you want to buy the domain name only , or if you want to for an
additional fee by the Privacy Protection . Now I do personally recommend buying
the privacy protection , because it prevents people from seeing your personal
information online .
I would recommend you buy this privacy protection for an extra seven dollars or
so it's definitely worth the privacy so I'm gonna go and click Add and that to
my cart .
Set Your Level of Subscription Term
okay we're all set
I'm going to scroll back to the top of the page , and click continue to checkout all right . so
now they're going to ask you if you want to buy web hosting , or an extra email
for your domain name.
So you're going to
click know things alright , so now they're asking you if you want to upgrade for
a certain level of subscription term, they get automatically default at two
years . If you are planning to buy a create this business for long term , which you
should be thinking for the long-term , you could purchase anywhere from one to
ten years .
I'm going to go ahead and just go with the lowest commitment at this
time , which is one year and then after a year you're going to renew , so we're
going to go and click on one year .
A Domain name's Payment Methods
When you choose your domain buying plan , It changes your
pricing and it's going to ask you if you want to buy other matching domains . so
if you are want to basically have the monopoly on you know .
So if you are a new
customer , you can go ahead and click the orange button , and basically sign
up and then they're going to ask you to fill out some billing information , this
is pretty standard go ahead and fill that out and we'll see on the next screen
,
Okay here we are the billing information screen , and they're going to ask you
for your payment method so obviously you can pay by credit debit PayPal gift
card , whatever you prefer . so go ahead and fill out that information , and then
we'll see you in the next screen , so you just purchase your own
web address .
.
So It's easy to
create a new website , don't worry it's easier than it sounds GoDaddy offers an
all-in-one solution, to help you build a website or online store . It includes
hosting to make your site visible and functional on the internet , and an SSL
certificate that protects the data following to , and from your site SSL encryption
