Domain name registration
To create a web site or custom email address, you first need a domain name. A domain name, such as myowndomain.com, functions as your address on the Internet, just as 1234 MyHome Street serves as the address for your home.

Most people choose a domain name that reflects their business or organization name or personal interests. You should try to come up with a unique and concise name that is easy to say, remember, and spell.

When you register a domain name, you can choose from an assortment of web address extensions, including .com, .net, .org, .info, .biz and country domains like .us, .ph , etc. You can purchase just one, or return to purchase the rest later to protect your domain name from competitors.

Yahoo! Domains allows you to register a domain name for up to 5 years and offers all of the major domain name extensions at affordable prices.
