HOW TO REGISTER DOMAIN FOR JUST $1.99/YEAR

A domain is something like tennis.com or blablabla.com
Based on my experience, .com has the best result as most people trust a .com website rather than a .info website.

A domain related to your niche will even more encourage visitors to click on your blog. If your niche is about tennis, would you click on tennisthegame.com or hulaten.com?

Normally a domain would cost you around $7.99 a year. But there are some tricks - Yahoo gives promotion for the first time buyer.

All you need is to go through this link - http://smallbusiness.yahoo.com/domains/?p=BESTDEAL
This is the cheapest in the world, $1.99 for the first year.
We will use it for 1 year and transfer to other domain registrar.

* Every time I want to buy a new domain, I register a new Yahoo account.
* Caution – The second year cost $34.99! Extremely EXPENSIVE!
Therefore remember to write down when is the renewal date and transfer BEFORE Yahoo auto renews your domain.
(I use excel to keep track all my domains)

* TO DO NOW: Find a meaningful domain related to your niche and buy it.
* SAMPLE: Purchased thetennisequipment.com from Yahoo.


Alright, that's all for today.

Hosting Requirement
In order to work with our plan, we need a good host that comes with below qualifications.
