There are many websites that offer domain registration services. Before a client buys a domain, he must check whether it’s available or not. When a domain is available, it means that nobody has owned it before and that you can rightfully claim it after registering under your name.
You should also write down at least 5 domain related domain names you wish to register such that if you find one is not available, you can search for another one.
Identify the best domain registration company you wish to search the new domain at. I suggest that you pick Bluehost because it registers the highest number of domains. Bluehost is also among the cheapest hosting companies in the world.
