How do I start my own website with a unique domain name?

I have an idea for a website, and I have some experience with html, and learning any more design techniques I can do on my own. I've only had websites with angelfire.com, but now I want to have my own domain name and advertising that I'm getting paid for hosting. How do I create my own domain name with some web space to work with, and after that, how do I offer my page as advertising grounds?

How do I start my own website with a unique domain name?
Well, I can help you get started with the unique domain name part. First go to a domain name registration site. Be careful though, many are shady and unstable. I developed a web site for the company I work for, and found out the hard way that domain name carriers can be crooks. Here is the site I've found to be reliable and we now use: http://www.domaindirect.com/





If you go to this web site, one of the first things you see is SEARCH in red, just plug in what you want for a domain name and it'll search it to see if it's already taken. That's the easy part.





Once you've figured out what you want for a domain name, then register it. This will cost a little money, but domaindirect has a few options, one of which you might find affordable. In order to use a domain name, it must be registered, this is unavoidable. If you try to go with some other domain registration site that advertises really cheap domain names, they might nickel and dime you every time you turn around, and they'll be real annoying about it, and they may not have reliable servers, and your site many suffer down time because of that........unless of course you choose to host your own domain, and that's a bit more tricky......but, regardless, you still must register your domain name.......If you choose to host your own site (that means the actual site is on your computer which is connected to the net at all times, and you'll need a real good firewall, and have the knowledge of how to keep hackers out of your computer and off your site) then you'll have to learn how to do all of that yourself or from someone else because I don't know about that. However, domaindirect has web hosting packages you may purchase along with your domain name registration. I found them to be very affordable. Usually, especially for a beginner domain, you'll only need one of the cheaper smaller packages, so don't waste your money on something fancy. Of course, you'll have to have some sort of idea of how many megabytes you'll need for your web site if you have it hosted through domaindirect or any other domain name server/host.





Well, that ought to get you started on it......I don't know about the offering your page for advertising grounds. Maybe someone else can help you with that part.





Good luck! :o)
Reply:I would go to godaddy.com it's cheap and they have great customer service not only that they have tons of domains you can choose from or make your own.
Reply:you have to purchase a domain name through a server provider or you can contact any website developer for a domain name.it is not costlier for purchasing a domain name.
Reply:just refer www.godaddy.com
Reply:go to inc5.com theres a bunch of things there like up-a.com or go to headplug.com here you just add the link to your old site and they transffer it to the new name! those were free...





or go to .tk to get a free .tk domain or even better http://freetld.net/ here you dont get to pick the name of your domain but its free and they are .com .org... so its good but you have to submit a reason why you want this domain...


on yahoo its like 2 bucks for a year I think!
Reply:try freewebs or geocities, freewebs is a lot better tho





hope this helps
Reply:First you choose a domain name. Make sure it's .com. Then go to a domain hosting site like godaddy and publish it there. Next you need a web host. They have a web server that will publish your site. I recommend qualityhostonline.com. You can do it all for about $20 total. It's easy to get a website published, but getting good traffic, like more than 100 hits a day, is very difficult and usually expensive. The best program for getting advertising on your site is Google Adsense. You get payed per click when people click on the google ads, and you pay nothing. The trick is, if you don't have a lot of traffic, you won't get a lot of clicks. There are no easy shortcuts. It takes time, and there's a lot to learn.
