They are both very well established and well respected domain registrars and they are able to offer 90% of the time a cheaper price than most other domain registrars, also I found there control panel domain management system so easy to navigate use, honestly when it comes to locating your domains and extending your domain contracts or even cancelling them they do make it easy not like some other domain registrars which i wont mention.

Here is my report on the comparison in prices when it comes to a purchase of a domain name from either namecheap or godaddy.

Both domain registrars have a benefit depending on the domain name extension you want, so what you see below is a comparison of the top level domains on September 28, 2009.

You can see by the table that if you wanted a domain registrar that can provide cheap domain registration you can see you would end up using maybe two or three domain registrars depending on the country you live in, I find that both Namecheap and Godaddy are good enough and cheap enough to buy domains from.

If you have not read the post on how to register a domain name take a look at it as it shows you how namecheaps interface looks like and the whole process how its done which is probably simple for most people doing business  on the internet but I believe a nice simple guide to getting started or even for someone wanting to get familiar with namecheaps interface.

There are many domain registrars out there were you can register domains let me show you the process of registering a domain, infact I will show you in these image examples how do i register a domain name from namecheap.

Let say I want to create an affiliate site or a an actual flower store site, I have chosen to search for the domain name flower-depo in the search box.  Now i make the search.

The .com domain extension is not available which would have been my first choice but in this example i will select the .org and and simply add it to cart.

I hope your reading this how do i register a domain name example as once you do this it will be alot easier registering your domain names. Time to get your credit card ready and make a decision weather you want the domain name for more than 1 year or not, I feel the decision is simple if you want to create a good website then purchase it for more than one year the reason i say this is because have read or heard from some super affiliates that google takes the length of the duration of the domain name being purchased for over a year in a better light than one being purchased for one year.  This makes sense as to me that google would like this as there all about giving a quality experience to its users using there search engine so this can be looked at giving you an added google bonus if you end up ranking for keywords on the search engines.  but if your building an affiliate landing page with the domain you purchased then its up to you on how long you want that domain for, so my advice if you plan to build a quality site and your happy with the domain name your going to purchase then then go for at least 2 years or more. If its a simple domain that you need quick then one year will do. You have learnt one part of how do i register a domain name read on.

If google uses in there algorythms a way to check domain name registry duration you can see logically that google would prefer a domain name that has been bought with the intention of creating a good website judging it by the duration of the domain registry, not to say you don’t have the intention with a domain name bought for one year but its quite a different mentality that is for me it is, if i want to create a great website then my intention is for the long run, now if i just wanted a domain were i may use it to test out or drive traffic to as an experiment on a pay per click campaign then one year would be good enough.

Also with namecheap you get 1 years whoisguard which protects your name and address to be available to the public from anyone trying to do a domain name check on you which is also a bonus but remember next year they will be charging around $7 for this and that does depend if you want to keep your domain name though.

Now you can either add funds to your namecheap account or you can pay using your credit card and that’s it, this is this is how i register a domain name.
