For budding webmasters, low cost domain registration is the greatest thing that ever happened after the discovery of the modulator demodulator (a.k.a the modem). While it wasn’t as cheap because demand was still low, popular websites like CNN, Google and Microsoft started in the late 90s by registering a domain name. Because these portals are well-established, logging in millions of users in a single day, the process of web hosting and domain names registration might appear very frightening for many first-time users.

Though the term of domain name is not a mechanically-used Internet jargon such as surf, download and website, there is no reason for it to create intimidation for first-timers. A domain name is an alphanumeric label that refers to an IP address of a server connected to the internet. Instead of random numbers, a domain name is assigned so that it will be easy to access and remember. No doubt about it, classicrecipes.com is easier to memorize than 205.234.239.66.

To buy web domain can be done through any domain name registrar. Any changes in the size, design and content of the domain are done through the registrar. The most important step is the first step – to look for a perfect domain name. A website that has a 'WHOIS' feature is a suitable start. To finalize the transaction, a credit card purchase of the domain is required so that, at once, you can set-up your website (at least temporarily) and register an e-mail based on the domain name of your choice.

Domain names worth $70 are nowhere to be found, unless you plan to register internet domain from EBay or Lycos. You can now get your domain names from domain name registers for a very cheap price. InterNIC fees have been abolished, so domain prices have decreased exponentially. Yahoo! Domains, GoDaddy, and Dotster are well-established that have various low cost domain servicing packages. Low cost domain names need to be bought and renewed yearly. If you don’t renew, other people can grab the opportunity to set-up their sites at your former domain.

Many low cost domains have standard features that you’ll find very significant for the development of your site. You should know that web hosting and domain names search are not the only services provided by the registrar. Domain forwarding allows redirection to your free hosted site and, domain masking, on the other hand, keeps the URL of your free hosted site from being shown. Other reliable features include domain locking, e-mail forwarding, DNS management and customized design interfaces.

Doing that low cost domain registration is not hard as you originally thought it was. You can do research to know which kind of registrar can be the most suitable for you – and you can find a lot of these tips in CNET. Once you’re able to customize your needs, to buy web domain will be a sure breeze.
