Where do I purchase a domain name?
So you want to build a website?
One of the first things people ask themselves is:
Where do I purchase a domain name?
That depends on how you plan to use it.
If you will be "squatting" on the domain (in other words, not actually using it, just holding on to it for future use or to onsell later), you can just use namecheap.com or name.com for the absolute cheapest options (or you can even google promo codes and sometimes find domains for as low as $1 for the first year).
However, if you want to do ANYTHING with the site, or want to have even the minimum privacy protection to prevent all the spam and junk calls that will come your way otherwise, you really can't beat Wealthy Affiliate's domain purchasing service.
For virtually the same price as just the domain itself + privacy from Namecheap, the absolute cheapest option, you get the domain, full pricacy protection, unlimited email accounts AND a flat rate guarantee.
That's right, you lock in the price of the domain for the whatever length of time you keep the domain. I challenge you to find that anywhere else!
Aside from that, you get everything else right here at Wealthy Affiliate as well, so you get to keep everything in one place.
Unless you are simply squatting, I assume you want to build a website. And whether it's for a business or just a hobby, I assume you wouldn't mind making a bit of money off your site.
Here at Wealthy Affiliate, not only will you get the best deal on domain names, you'll get free hosting (either at siterubix for a free account or on your domain if you choose to get a premium Wealthy Affiliate account), free training on how to get an audience and make money off your site (plus thousands more hours of training if you decide to get a premium account) AND a whole community of other online entrepreneurs.
If you're already a member of Wealthy Affiliate, getting all your domain names here is a no-brainer. If you're not... why not try it free? Click "Create a Free Account" at the top of this page to get started. You'll be glad you did.
Do you agree or disagree that Wealthy Affiliate is the best value if you plan to do anything other than squat a domain name? Please share your comments below. I love hearing from you!

HI Jeremy my name is Vicki and I started building a site on siterubix I want to buy a domain and actually have two questions,
The site I started is mites on humans the .com is not available in .com but is in .org would it be better to change the name or go with .org
When you go to build a website in Site Rubix and type in the name you want it will tell you if it is available.
I was looking for a chart like that with comparisons with other domain providers - Thank You, Jeremy! I really appreciate it! I will definitely be buying additional domains here. As far as "squatting" on some domain names that could have great future value, I am working on that also, but will use your suggestion and get them elsewhere. Have a great day! Ron
Excellent blog post, Jeremy! You should post this on your website, if you haven't already - that picture was informative and interesting, as well.
