Technical Tip #1: Registering your domain name

Is your desired name available? Check It Here!
If it is...keep reading.


It's always a safe bet to choose a company that ranks high in reviews for domain registration. Some are better than others, and none are perfect.

When choosing a host or domain service provider, look to see if they offer the following (they should be listed under "Services"):
Multiple email addresses
FTP Transfer
Lots of space for content
Lots of "Bandwidth"
PHP
MySQL / Databases (Important for Wordpress)


GO to these sites to register your domain:

http://tigertech.net/
http://www.bluehost.com * With this one, you must buy the domain and hosting at the same time..a good all in one solution
http://www.pair.com/

DO NOT go to these sites as they are very bad
GoDaddy
ENOM
MidPhase
Network Solutions (Not bad for checking domains though)

Enjoy!
