How to Register a Domain Name:
 
To register domain name, enter your desired domain name in the domain name search box above and select the TLD extension (.com, .net, etc.) from the drop-down box, and then click the "Go" button to see if that domain name is available to be registered.
 
If your preferred domain name is available, you'll have the opportunity to register that domain name with HostingDude.com for as little as than 2 cents per day based on just a single year's domain name registration! That's less than $5 per year. Can you still get a meal at a fast food restaurant for that price?
 
When you enter your domain name preference, our intelligent interface will automatically check to see if the same name is available to register with a different TLD extension (.net, .org, .biz, .us, .name, .ws, etc.), and offer you the option of registering your preferred name with one of those extensions and you may do so either in addition to your first choice in a domain name, or instead of your first choice.
 
Our interface will also offer a link entitled "see more names like this."  Click this to activate an automatic domain name generator instantly providing you with a  list of thousands of similar domain names, along with their availability in various TLD extensions.

More Domain Name Registration Choices:  TLDs, Combinations
 
After entering your preferred domain name in the above domain name search box  the availability of that name will be displayed along with a link to "show available Country Code TLDs."  By clicking on this link, you may now view your desired domain name in many of the popular country code extensions, such as .tv, .cc, .uk, and many more.

With this easy-to-use interface, you can register domain name even if you're not sure which name you want!  Just type in a one- or two-word domain name that roughly describes your purpose, click the "Go" button, and let our system then suggest something by clicking on our "see more names like this" domain name guide tool.  With HostingDude.com, you can register your own name as a domain name, or start a great new business, for this amazingly low domain name registration price!
 
Note that as more and more domain names ending in .com become registered, if you wish to register a .com domain name, you'll sometimes need to combine multiple words.  For example, a cheap domain name registration company which offers cheap hosting may not be able to register a domain name like HostingDude.com but it may be able to get HostingDude-Site-.com or  HostingDude-Domains-.com or Best-HostingDude-.com or  Cheap-HostingDude-.com or Cheapest-HostingDude-.com or perhaps a domain name registration oriented site with a multiple name such as DomainName-Intelligence-.com or DomainName-Spy-.com...

Registering Hyphenated Domain Names for Search Engines:
 
Note that a registered domain name may include a hyphen (-) but no other punctuation. This is often helpful when you want to register a two-word domain name and the non-hyphenated version is already taken. For example, you may not be able to register the domain name Cheap Domain Names because it is likely taken.  But, you may be able to instead register the virtually identical domain name: Cheap-Domain-Names-.us (or as a .com).  In fact, you may want to intentionally register domain names using hyphens as word separators as your first priority if you're looking to create websites which can be most easily found in search engines.  Yes!  Multiple studies of the internal functioning of Google and Yahoo and other search engines reveal that using the hyphen as a word separator in domain names allows a search engine to more easily determine word breaks and is thus very effective at producing significantly higher search engine placement results than non-hyphenated domain names.  So don't fear the hyphen when you register domain name!

On the other hand, if you wish to create a domain name which is more memorable, you can safely estimate that the vast majority of your website visitors will assume that a domain name spoken to them does not include hyphens.  Also note that when domain visitors remember domain names, they typically do not remember the hyphen as easily as a domain name consisting of all letters (or letters and numbers) and thus they often omit the hyphens when trying to remember a domain name and type it into the address bar on their browser.

For this reason, many webmasters will register a domain name in both a hyphenated version and non-hyphenated version.  For example, typing a hyphenated version of our name into your browser's address bar will bring you to the HostingDude.com website because we registered this alternate, hyphenated domain name in the event our customers mistakenly type it into their browser that way.   This is a good way to prevent competitors from stealing a portion of your business by registering mistypes (and alternate extensions) of your domain name.   As an example of an alternate extension, you'll find that if you type the name HostingDude.net into your browser, you'll similarly reach the HostingDude.com website because we registered that alternative extension as well.
 
Enter your preferred domain name in the domain name availability search box above to get started!
