I did just that yesterday as I initiated the order.  This is actually a good example in terms of when you are looking to purchase some kind of service, do you go for the cheapest option or pay a little extra to get something more reliable?  For this, my requirements were that I wanted to register the domain for one year to start off along with the ability to register the domain privately to help prevent spammers from accessing the site\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s contact information. <\/p>\n<p>If this was for a regular business I would opt to pay a little more to go with a company that I was confident with.  Normally, I would have to pay about $15 a year to get what I want.  It would usually be almost instantaneous as well as once I place my order I notice that the domain is then fully registered fairly quickly.  After thinking about it for a bit, in the end the web hosting usually plays the main role when it comes to the performance of a web site, which I will be pickier with, and so I decided to be more frugal in the budget for registering a domain.  <\/p>\n<p>The result, to save money I decided to go with a company that charged $5.99 as it was one of the cheaper options for what I wanted.  As expected, the service isn\u00e2\u20ac\u2122t as prompt as I registered it yesterday and as of now I am still waiting for a confirmation that it has been successfully registered.  In general though, assuming everything goes through, the trade off is that I went from needing to spend about 15% of initial my funds to about 6%.  Those numbers are off a bit as my funds are in Canadian currency while the bill is using US currency.<\/p>\n<p>Hopefully it goes through okay.  I still have to brainstorm everything anyhow, so the wait doesn\u00e2\u20ac\u2122t affect me too much.<\/p>\n<p><!--adsense--><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>So with $105.54 to work with for this idea, the first thing I need to do is to register the domain name.
