In this guide, we will teach you two quick ways to buy a domain name in less than 4 minutes. You have the choice between these two options:<\/p>\n
Of course, we assume that you already know the domain name that you require, as well as the desired extension (.com or.ca or.org etc.) If the domain name with your desired extension is already taken, the process may take more than 4 minutes, since you will have to spend time to find another.<\/p>\n
Finally, when it comes to deciding which of the two options (free domain name with a web hosting plan OR domain name only) to choose, it really depends on your intentions.<\/p>\n
If you plan on creating a website on the domain name you want to buy, you\u2019ll need a good web host, so you might as well jump on the opportunity of getting a good web hosting service that offers a free domain name.<\/p>\n
If you have no intention of creating a website right now, and if you only need to have the domain name, it makes more sense to just pay for the domain (about $ 10 per year).<\/p>\n
