		<description>Mainly domain names and hosting go hand in hand so things to consider are where are you going to host your domain name.

I found a hosting site that gives you a free domain name, unlimited websace, and data transfer and you can use a coupon code to get a discount.. use 25OFF for 25% off all plans.

		<description>The main purpose of a domain name is to provide symbolic representations, i.e., recognizable names, to mostly numerically addressed Internet resources. This abstraction allows any resource (e.g., website) to be moved to a different physical location in the address topology of the network, globally or locally in an intranet, in effect changing the IP address. This translation from domain names to IP addresses (and vice versa) is accomplished with the global facilities of Domain Name System (DNS).

		<description>When dealing with a lot of the bigger companies the big thing looking at the deals they have. Most of them are about the same to deal with and offer most of the same features. One thing you should think about is privacy options. The domain name is going to get registered to your name and contact information that you provide. This can be used by spammers or others to get info you may not want others to see. Some of the domain registrars offer privacy options where it gets registered through a proxy info sort of. Good feature to look into!

Now when purchasing a domain name there are a few things to think of on the marketing side of things. You will probably want something easy to remember or easy to guess depending on your target audience. Plus look at variations that my be close to yours that could give people the wrong idea if they go to one of these and think they are on your site. Also are you concerned if anyone registers the same domain as your but as a .org or .net or so on.&lt;br&gt;&lt;b&gt;References : &lt;/b&gt;&lt;br&gt;</description>

		<description>Several Things.

One is that the domain you like is good and should represent who you are or the name of your company or organization

Next, the suffixes are originally met for convention however not everyone follows it, for example:

.com - Company - used for most commercial and industrial companies
.net -   Network - Often used for ISPs
.edu -  Education - Often used for Universities
.org -   Organization - used for 
.biz -   Business - Used for Businesses
.gov -  Government - Used for government functions
.mil -    Military - Used for Military
.int -    International - Used for International Organizations
.us, .uk, .tv, .cc, .jp, .es, .il, .sa, .za, .br, etc - suffix used to represent a country of origin.


You should also look for a company that has good pricing and customer service. 

 As to features, all domains are the same you just have to set your DNS, A-Records, C-Records, and PTR records for your servers and you should be all set in a couple of days (DNS takes a long time to refresh).&lt;br&gt;&lt;b&gt;References : &lt;/b&gt;&lt;br&gt;</description>
