What you need for a new website
To start, you need to purchase a web address, or a domain name. Then you need to purchase space, or a hosting service, where you keep all your webpages and information. To follow are some link to websites where you can buy these things. When you are done purchasing the necessary items give your web designer access or your usernames and passwords for those accounts and they’ll set up your brand new website. If you are having trouble your webmaster can guide you through the necessary steps.
Domain Names
Go Daddy Domain Names
When you buy a domain name with Go Daddy you get full ownership of that domain on a yearly basis. Other companies may sell you a domain name but give you only partial ownership. Domains on Go Daddy cost $8.95 a year for a .com and $8.99 a year for a .net and .org.
When you go to GoDaddy.com first do a search to see if someone has the domain name you want. If it is available you can purchase it.

Cheers for this post. I’m currently being hosted by HostGator and so far, they seem to be pretty good. I’m not sure, though, what other people’s opinions are about the specifications of the web hosting plan they offer, as with some hosts, such as with LunarPages, you may get more.
