Cupe Posted October 8, 2011 Share Posted October 8, 2011 I doI can also give you a free subdomain while you're working out which other domain to purchasewww.yourwebsite.ausdjforums.comWhat do you want to know? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
anditz Posted October 9, 2011 Author Share Posted October 9, 2011 How much does it cost? Who do you buy it off? How do you find out who owns it if you want to buy it off them? Once you have the domain where do you go from there? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mitch Posted October 9, 2011 Share Posted October 9, 2011 To buy a domain there is heaps of sites, such as www.godaddy.com . Just google purchasing of domain name and there is an infinite number of sites to purchase from.If someone owns the domain, you can get their details using a whois service, such as http://www.domaintools.com/ OR http://www.whois.net/Once you have the domain you need to get it hosted, which isn't hard once you have the name. Can't remember the names of ones i've used, but i'm sure others will know some good ones. Godaddy does hosting too, but your probably better off going with one in Australia? Will be faster for us i'm presuming. Quick search of domain hosting will also bring up an infinite number of sites to host on. Go with a paid one over a free one, pretty self explanatory why - ads, reliability etc.Hope this helps Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
