Articles on Suffolk Web Site Design Sep 2010

When you first decide to get a website, one of the first things you need to do is get a domain name that suits your particular business/ organisation or needs. A domain name is the name you want to call your website. To get a web site domain name you have to:

• First search the name to see if it is available. It may not be available as .co.uk or .com but it may be available as .biz. Or it may be available as a slight variation of what you wanted, for example not www.sweetshop but www.sweet-shop.
• Then pay an annual fee to register the right to use the name. This registration fee may be as little as £10 per year depending on the website name you choose. And the url tag, .com and .biz are more expensive than many other tags.
• Registering the domain name gives you the right to use that name. So you then need to get a website and get hosting for your website to upload your web site online.
