The importance of owning the domain:
www.yourname.com
May seem very silly to you now, but give this some thought. IMAGINE: You’ve actually made it big, you are known in the industry and with the general public. You have fans and millions of people are using google to look for info on you. The first thing that comes up? Yep: www.yourname.com that some fan bought and now has all the information people are looking for…but…you haven’t approved it, or contributed to it, or even like what they are saying!!!! AND not to mention that the person owning the site is making thousands of dollars with the visits it gets on you!!!!
So to avoid all that, make the decision to buy your domain NOW. Its much simpler than you think:
1. Go to www.godaddy.com
2. Look up your domain name: www.yourname.com
3. Buy it for 1 ($9.99), 2 or 3 years…
4. Set up your email.
You can also decide that you want to buy the .net, .org or .me of your domain, so just repeat the steps. Also you can host (buy the space for a website) and build a website with GoDaddy.com in minutes, or leave that for later. Its up to you. But as long as you own it, nobody can use it, and if they want to, you can sell it (You decide for how much) eventually to say…a fanclub?
