Choose Your Domain Name
The first step for making a website is to choose a domain name.
Just like having a telephone number that is unique to you. A domain name is unique so people can see your website.
It is what you see after the “www.” in your browser and its what comes after the @ symbol in your email.
www.make-a-web-site.com is my domain name.
If you already have a domain name you can also use that to make your website.
Domain Tips
Your domain is important. I recommend either be a cool catchy name or a description of what your website is about.
For example, facebook.com is cool and catchy and has nothing to do about sharing pictures and updates what your up to with your friends. On the other hand creditcards.com explains exactly what the website is about.
- -Make it simple
- -Register a .com domain name were possible.
- -Keep it short. (e.g. rockingchairdesign.com instead of bobsbesttipstomakearockingchair.com )
- -Register is for more than 2 years
