Having a website built in html, how do I get the domain .com? Is there any free way or only paying for? It's hard to do?

you just need to purchase a domain through a registrar. Alternatively, some hosting companies give free domain names with a year hosting package.

To put it simple, you need to have money.

There are many registrars on the Internet, but if you're a little low on cash, then search for the cheapest that offers the best services. ( read reviews to know what past customers said )

After you've purchased a .com domain, you need to point the domain to your web host's name servers. After DNS propagation, your website should be located from your .com domain,

no it only need to pay $1 to get a new domain .com

You will be able to register domain name or you can also buy it in auctions.

Sedo and Namepros are good places.

Well, there are some web hosts that offer free domain and web site builder if you buy their hosting solution and pay for the whole year.

help help~

I'd like to register a domain..where can I find the cheapest hosting with domain name registration for a .com?

Hosting and registration are two different things.

And there is plenty of members here who do one, the other or both.

there r hosting that offer registration too right?

Sure and registrars that offer hosting. But if budget is a concern "shopping around" to find the best deals that seperate companies offer is the best way.

Some hosting companies offer "free" registration then stitch you up with exorbitant renewal fees or transfer charges.
Finding the "cheapest hosting" that offers domain registration usually has some surprise waiting for you along the way.

Looking at hosting and registration is akin to walking though a minefield, so many of them have caveats to their "tempting offers" that are not quite as visible.

1and1 for example usually have "free" domains with twelve months hosting but your first renewal costs £30 and a transfer fee cost £90 .

yeah, like godaddy.com, register.com, powweb.com, they offer domain registration along with webhosting.

You can alternatively buy the domain only from godaddy for as low as $7.49. Take a Look at godaddy coupon codes.

Hmm, an acquaintance offered me a fair deal. Also mentioned a reseller account. Hopefully I will be efficient with my time this week to have a look and ponder about the reseller offer.
I'm able to have my domain registered and hosted for free for the first year.
