How to Register a Domain Name:
To register domain name,
enter your desired domain name in the
domain
name search box above and select the TLD
extension (.com, .net, etc.) from the drop-down box, and then
click the "Go" button to see if that domain name is available to
be registered.
If your preferred domain
name is available, you'll have the opportunity to register that
domain name with ix-one.com for as little as than 2 cents
per day based on just a single year's domain name registration!
That's less than $5 per year. Can you still get a meal at a fast
food restaurant for that price?
When you enter your domain
name preference, our intelligent interface will automatically
check to see if the same name is available to register with a
different TLD extension (.net, .org, .biz, .us, .name, .ws,
etc.), and offer you the option of registering your preferred
name with one of those extensions and you may do so either in
addition to your first choice in a domain name, or instead of
your first choice.
Our interface will also
offer a link entitled "see more names like
this." Click this to activate an automatic domain
name generator instantly providing you with a list of
thousands of similar domain names, along with their
availability in various TLD extensions.
More Domain Name Registration Choices: TLDs, Combinations
After entering your
preferred domain name in the above
domain
name search box the availability of that name
will be displayed along with a link to "show
available Country Code TLDs." By clicking on this
link, you may now view your desired domain name in many of the
popular country code extensions, such as .tv, .cc, .uk, and many
more.
With this easy-to-use
interface, you can register domain name even if you're not sure
which name you want! Just type in a one- or two-word
domain name that roughly describes your purpose, click the "Go"
button, and let our system then suggest something by clicking on
our "see more names like this"
domain name guide tool. With HostingDude.com, you
can register your own name as a domain name, or start a great
new business, for this amazingly low domain name registration
price!
Note that as more and more domain names ending in .com become
registered, if you wish to register a .com domain name, you'll
sometimes need to combine multiple words. For example, a
domain name registration company may not be able to register
Domains.
com
but it may be able to get
ExcellentDomains.
com
or RegisterDomainNameNow.
com
or MiamiDomainName.
com
or QualityDomainNameRegistrar.com.
Registering Hyphenated Domain Names for Search Engines:
Note that a
registered domain name may include a hyphen (-) but no other
punctuation. This is often helpful when you want to register a
two-word domain name and the non-hyphenated version is already
taken. For example, you may not be able to register the domain
name DomainNameRegistration.
com because it
is likely taken. But, you may be able to instead
register the virtually identical domain name:
Domain-Name-Registration.
com. In fact,
you may want to intentionally register domain names using
hyphens as word separators as your first priority if you're
looking to create websites which can be most easily found in
search engines. Yes! Multiple studies of the
internal functioning of Google and Yahoo and other
search engines reveal that using the hyphen as a word separator
in domain names allows a search engine to more easily determine
word breaks and is thus very effective at producing
significantly higher search engine placement results than
non-hyphenated domain names. So don't fear the hyphen when
you register domain name!
On the other hand, if you wish to create a domain name which is
more memorable, you can safely estimate that the vast majority
of your website visitors will assume that a domain name spoken
to them does not include hyphens. Also note that when
domain visitors remember domain names, they typically do not
remember the hyphen as easily as a domain name consisting of all
letters (or letters and numbers) and thus they often omit the
hyphens when trying to remember a domain name and type it into
the address bar on their browser.
For this reason, many webmasters will register a domain name in
both a hyphenated version and non-hyphenated version. For
example, typing Hosting-Dude.com into your browser's
address bar will bring you to the HostingDude.com website
because we registered this alternate, hyphenated domain name in
the event our customers mistakenly type it into their browser
that way. This is a good way to prevent competitors
from stealing a portion of your business by registering mistypes
(and alternate extensions) of your domain name. As
an example of an alternate extension, you'll find that if you
type the name HostingDude.net into your browser, you'll
similarly reach the HostingDude.com website because we
registered that alternative extension as well.
Enter your preferred domain name in the
domain name
availability search box above to get started!
