- Hi, I'm Joplin.
I'm gonna show you how to register your domain name
on GoDaddy.com
To start on GoDaddy.com click in the search field,
enter your domain and then click search
to see if it's available.
Awesome, my domain is available.
Below the domain's purchase info
you have the option to add the three-pack.
This enables you to purchase the next three
most popular extensions for your domain name.
It could be a good idea if you're trying
to protect your domain and build brand.
I'm going to add the domain to my shopping cart
and click continue.
On this screen you have some options
that will help you protect your personal information
and make the most of your domain.
We add the privacy protection by default
to hide your personal information
from the public Who Is Database.
And you can also kick it up a notch
with the ultimate protection and security option.
If you want to read more about either option
just click the question mark here or here.
Of course the choice is always up to you.
You can always select no thanks to decline
both privacy options.
The next option is start your website for free.
Again selected by default because this is what most folks
will use their domain for.
However feel free to deselect this option to decline.
And the last option here let's you create
your custom email address that lets you use your domain.
I'm going to leave my options as is
and click continue to cart.
This is the purchase summary page.
If you don't already have an account with us,
you'll need to create one first so let's do that.
You can create an account with GoDaddy
using your Facebook or Google account
or just enter your good old email address like me.
Next enter user name.
Make sure to tick off all the requirements.
Now enter a password.
We'll help you out here by letting you know
how strong or weak your password is as you enter it.
If you're like me you need a little help remembering
what you actually typed in.
You can always click show to see your password.
To finish click create account.
And we're back on the summary page.
On the right of this page are the contents of my cart.
At the top is my domain name.
It may sound obvious but make sure
you have it spelled right here.
This is your last chance to change it
and we really want to make sure that you're getting
the one that you want.
Below the domain name is the term for your registration
or the number of years that you want the domain name.
Remember while you're purchasing the domain name
it's only yours as long as you continue
to renew the registration.
I've set mine to five years.
Below the term field is the rate
at which your domain will renew.
This is the amount that I'll be charged
in five years if I choose to renew.
You can easily change the term by expanding the menu
and selecting a different one.
Below the domain area is the domain privacy.
You'll notice that the privacy term
is aligned for the number of years in your domain's term.
And below that is the website builder free trial.
If you change your mind and you want
to delete anything in the cart
just click the garbage can icon.
Next in the upper left of the screen
you'll enter your payment information.
And then choose a payment form
and enter the required information.
Once that's done you'll want to ensure
the billing information below the payment is correct.
And the recommended for you area
are other parts that you'll want to consider.
If you're interested in adding any of these
just click add.
Okay let's wrap up.
If you have a promo code for your purchase
be sure to click the link and enter the code
before you click complete purchase.
I'm all set so I'll click complete purchase.
And that's it.
You've registered your domain with GoDaddy.com
Thanks for watching.
