One of the first steps for having a website is to choose and buy a domain name. I help my clients to choose an appropriate domain name and to buy the one-year registration. Selecting the right domain name is key to ensure success online. Domain names should be memorable, short, easy to spell and type, and, if possible, they should contain keywords.
Once the domain name is chosen, the next step will be to get hosting service for one year too, with the same or other company who sold the domain name. Like the domain service renewal, your hosting account should be automatically renewed every year.
Having a domain name and hosting services, the website now can be designed and launch publicly.
