Register DotCom Domain

                 Registering a dot com domain name is the first step in creating your own Web presence. It ensures you own that domain name for as long as you keep it registered. Prices and services offered vary by registrar. Discounts are sometimes available, and if you choose to register a name with a different extension such as .net or .org, you might find a cheaper alternative.
