Cheap Domain Names from DomainsDirectHQ.com
Hey All,
I’ve had window cleaners ask me over the years where they can buy domain names from. Although I’ve always recommended godaddy for domain names, you can get domain names cheaper at DomainsDirectHQ.com, so if you’re in need of a domain name, this is the place to go. A domain name costs $8.99 at Domains Direct HQ whereas at godaddy they cost $10.69 for a .com name.
DomainsDirectHQ.com is set up similar to godaddy, so if you purchase a domain name from them, I’ll be able to still provide guidance on how to edit the dns information so that the domain name points to 5.88WebHosting.com if you’re having your website hosted at 5.88Webhosting.com.
Some folks are not aware of how domain names work, who actually owns them, etc., so I figured before ending this blog post, I’d take a minute to explain.
When purchasing a domain name, it’s done through what’s called a “registrar”. There are thousands of registrars out there such as godaddy.com, 1and1.com, networksolutions.com, etc. etc. DomainsDirectHQ.com is a registrar also. But the important thing to understand is that regardless where you purchase your domain name from, they’re all controlled by one organization: Internet Corporation for Assigned Names and Numbers (ICANN).
So regardless whether you purchase your domain name from godaddy or from DomainsDirectHQ.com or whoever, it makes no difference. ICANN ultimately controls the domain name and you’re actually “renting” the domain name from them. Registrars are simply the middlemen.
So you may be thinking what does one registrar offer over another if the domain names are the same and one organization controls them all. The two biggest reasons to go with one registrar over another are price and customer service.
So…
To Buy A Domain Name Cheap, go to DomainsDirectHQ.com
To Host Your Domain Name/Website, go to 5.88WebHosting.com
A closing note to make is that as a value added bonus for being a member of The Customer Factor software, we do provide free web hosting for your website, so there’s no need to sign up for hosting at 5.88WebHosting if you’re a software member.
Have a great day.
Regards,
Steve
