Domain name registration
To create a web site or custom email address, you first
need a domain name. A domain name, such as widget-designs.com,
functions as your address on the Internet, just as 1234
Main Street serves as the address for your home.
Most people choose a domain name that reflects their
business or organization name or personal interests. You
should try to come up with a unique and concise name
that is easy to say, remember, and spell. But don't
worry, we have tools that will inspire your creativity
or suggest names if you're stuck.
When you register a domain name, you can choose from
an assortment of web address
extensions, including .com, .net, .org, .info, .biz
and .us. You can purchase just one, or return to
purchase the rest later to protect your domain name from
competitors.
Yahoo! Domains allows you to register a domain name
for up to 5 years and offers all of the major domain
name extensions at affordable prices. Here is a complete
list of available extensions and their requirements.
