Register a domain.

In this task you're going to choose, check the availability of and (hopefully) register a domain name that you'll use for your portfolio. The technicalities of this task will take about an hour, but you may end up spending more than this. You're going be spending money on your domain name, so spend as much time as you need selecting the right one. Don't rush into it because you can't get refunds on domain names and wasting money isn't cool.

I prefer to use http://dnsimple.com

It's not the cheapest, but they don't try and sell you things you don't need like a lot of the budget registrars.

Thanks Jon,

They are asking me to pay monthly for their services + registration. Isn´t there a service where I just have to do a one time payment per year ?

Thanks,

Seb

Ninjah-Hosting has cheap reliable hosting and you can chose if you pay per month or per year (cheaper if you pay a year at once). I have been using then for about a year now with no trouble and the owner is always happy to help you (as am I).

see Ninjah-Hosting website for more details and if it asks say casman300 sent you as i think it gives you a bit of a discount :)
