Before completing your website, it is essential that you use the domains available service of a reliable domain name registrar. This allows you to specifically search for an available url that is suitable for your site. But it is equally important as well to take time to choose a registrar that is credible and offers good service and reasonable rates. Remember also to read each one’s guidelines and other terms of use.

Once you have a number of good domain names in mind, go to your registrar of choice and use their domains available option. This way, you’ll be able to check for the availability of your preferred domain name. If it isn’t available, you will have to perform another search using another domain name of your choice. It is also possible to choose from the suggestion list provided by the registrar.

Domain registrars also offer WHOIS services which give you information on domains that are already taken. This includes the owner of the domain name, contact information and the validity period. In some cases, it is possible for you to acquire a domain name from someone else if they fail to renew it. Otherwise, you have no choice but to use the domains available service and consider another name.

Searching for available domain names is free of charge. But what’s convenient is that reliable domain registrars will allow you to immediately reserve the domain name if it’s still available. You can instantly follow this up with your payment to ensure that no one else can take the domain name of your choice.

Looking for domain names frequently will also allow you to run into domain names that require no payment. Keep in mind though that these may not be suitable for your site. Also, the quality of free domain names are not as good as the ones you pay for.
