    Google is your friend, my friend... heheh anyways there's tons of different registrars that are able to register your domain, you'll then need to get a hosting account to host websites with the domain. Some registrars provide hosting services as well to go alongside the domain, however I personally would recommend against putting all your eggs in one basket :)

    You can register one. There are free domain names but they are not all that good for marketing as they will be long. The best thing for you to do is to buy domain names which cost from $7. The are companies that are accredited by ICANN that you can register your domain name with. For you to register a domain name you need to have:

    1.) PayPal account

    2.) Valid credit card

    3.) Provide you personal information such as address, phone number etc

    First you will need to do a "whois" search to see if the name you want to register is available or is already taken.

    On “whois” do not type the www part just type the name and from the drop down button select the type of extension you want. The extension can be .com, .net, .org, .info etc

    Enter the screen code so as to access the page that will generate results. If you find that the domain name is available you can go ahead and register it but if you find it is not available then you can select another name.

    Alternatively you can check the list of expired domain names to see if you can get a good expired domain name to use. Expired domain names are sold and people have bought these expired domain names.

    Note that domain names do expire and this being so you will have to renew your domain name. If you don’t renew it once the registration period lapses then you’ll definitely lose it.
