Hello Guys,
In this article, you are going to learn how to
register a domain with Google domains. Google domains is my recommended domain
provider and I've got other article that talk about why but let's talk about how
to register your domain name.
Alright, So the first thing we're gonna do is to jump on to Google domains. You can just
search Google domains. So, what you're going to do is you're just going to look
for the domain name that you want. So, let's say you're looking for techwithfarhan.com.
Then it's just going to show you a full list
of potential domains that are available. The nice thing about Google domains is
it's very straightforward. There's nothing else distracting here on the site. So,
you're going to scroll down here and you'll notice most domains are $12 a year.
There's some better a little more premium that costs a little bit more. But
this is what you're gonna do is you're just gonna find whatever the domain name
is that you're looking for and you're gonna click the little Cart button to add
it to your cart.
Then
once you're ready you can just come up to the top of the screen and click go to
cart. Now here in your cart, you'll see your domain name, you'll see the
registration $12 a year. You can turn privacy protection on which means that
your contact information will not be published which is something that I
recommend doing to avoid a lot of spam to your personal information and then you
can turn on auto renew so that you don't lose your domain I actually made this
mistake where I had Auto renew off and I lost ownership of a domain because I
did not renew it. So, I like to leave that on. It just means every year you'll get
billed the twelve dollars again to to maintain the domain name.
Once you're ready, all you're
gonna do is click checkout. Now you can add in your contact info and remember
when you use the protection, this this information will not be shown to the
public. It's only used for registration purposes, in case, there is an issue
but strangers on the Internet will not be able to see this personal information
which is why I recommend you turn on privacy. You'll see right here that
privacy is on and your contact information will not be published.
After you fill that out, you can simply
click Save and continue. Now you're ready to review your purchase. Make sure
that everything looks good. You've got the right domain, you've got Auto renew
is on. Then it's simply add a credit card and click buy.
To keep in mind is when you buy a domain
on Google domains, you're just going to use your Google account. So if you have
a gmail account that you want to use for your blog you can simply use that
gmail account to sign in to Google domains or you can create a new Google
account to use for your new blog or website that you're going to set up after
you've purchased your domain.
You can simply go to domains google.com
and see all of your registered domains. So, in your account, you can see all of
the domains that you own and then from here you can manage DNS settings, change
different settings, you can see when it expires.
So that was how you can register
your domain on google domains.
