Finding A Domain Name

Having a catchy domain name is very important. When you have a memorable domain name, users are more likely to remember your website. Having a ‘.com’ name is usually an extension that most people will remember; however, other extensions have become very popular. Other popular extensions are ‘.net’ or ‘.org’. There are also many other popular extensions available.

You can check the availability of a domain name at many registrars such as HostGator; however, we are going to use an internet tool that will save you some time. Instead of clicking a ‘check domain availability’ button and having another page load just to find out if a domain name is available, the following widget provided by ‘InstantDomainSearch.com’ will let you know if the domain is available dynamically. Just type in the name and it will let you know if the ‘.com’, ‘.net’, or ‘.org’ names are available to register.

For the process of this tutorial we have used the domain, ‘YourArcade.org’. Okay… Once you have finally found an available and desirable domain, let’s go ahead and register it.
