Buy and register a domain nameAre you interested in buying a new domain name? Great! But I bet you are concerned about what exactly is a good domain name!

A good domain name is easy to remember, easy to spell, brandable, reflects your nice/idea, and is fairly short. So picking out one it’s not the easiest thing to do. You should also think ahead, will your domain name suit you in the future as well?

Where To Start
There are several tools to help you out when you want help to pick out a domain name. At first, think about some keywords that can describe your website. If you only can think of one, maybe Thesaurus can help you on the way with similar and related words.

Domain Name Suggestions
When you have a couple of words to play with you can use tools like Bust A Name, PC Names and Nameboy. They are name generators and will come up with several domain names for you if you give them some keywords.
You can also go to JustDropped to check out domain names that has been recently deleted and available to anyone.

Where To Buy
There are many companies that offers domain name registrations. Be sure to compare them before you buy, not everyone offers the same features and the prices can vary a lot.
Some examples are: GoDaddy (if you are considering them, make sure you search for GoDaddy coupons as well before you buy, you can save a lot more with a coupon!), NameNova (that’s where I buy mine) and Namecheap.

I hope this helped you to get you started!

Thoughts Aside

Professionals prefer 70-547 and 642-565 to the basic 1Y0-308 or 70-621 because then they are exempted from 70-299. Most of these courses are more approporiately conducted by small insituitions rather than big places like University of Phoenix.
