Having a professional image is very important on the Web, and it begins with having your own domain name.
A domain name is the unique name that identifies a web site. They are used in the URLs you type into your browser's Address line to access certain pages of a web site. (ie. aol.com) Think of your domain name as the sign you hang up outside your place of business.
Selecting a domain name should reflect your company's image much the same way your logo does - and should require the same amount of consideration and planning. It should capture people's attention and be descriptive of your business.
And remember, you can use your domain name as part of your email address. This can be a very valuable marketing tool. Every time you send someone an email, you are in effect sending them a link to your website as well.
Kestrel Designs can register your domain name for you for only $15/year. Or, if your domain name is already registered elsewhere, we can transfer your domain name and extend your registration by 1 year from the date of transfer.
Next, you need to rent server space or purchase "hosting" for your website. This is essentially the office space for your website.
