So, should a writer get a domain name? Well, if you are going to create a website that publicises your work - an online communication tool, if you like - I believe it is sensible to do so.
It works out relatively cheap and if you pick the right domain name seller and web hoster, setting up your own website is quite easy. For example, .com domain names cost around £8.99 per year, while .co.uk domains cost, currently, £1.99 per year. I’ll provide more advice and information on setting up your own domain, soon.
I purchased my own domain name from 1&1, and was so impressed with their service that I asked them to host my site - this one.
It is quite easy to find out if the domain name you are after is available, and more details on how 1&1 web hosting works. All you have to do is click HERE.
