Today, a commotion was going on in the office, where some my colleagues look to purchasese a domain for their blogs. Domain names these days are getting cheaper and cheaper, but the tough thing is getting a good and short domain name that make sense to your friends. It takes a little creativity to get a shorter and memorable domain. My company vi8e uses “8″ to replace “b” so that we can a real cool and short domain. Today, my colleagues sandra after trying many tough twisters experimenting with “.us” domain, gave up and use sanses.com.

While, i have settle on fastknacks.com, why because i little to blog short little knack of how things should or could be done.

So here’s the little knack of how to get a domain name. Of course you can simply just purchase them through blogger or wordpress. Some of us prefer godaddy. But after much experimentation with godaddy, with their complicated checkout process and agressive sales tactics, i have moved on to name.com. Simple, cheap and straight forward.

2nd trick, look for coupons, you seldom pay full price online! Get 10% discount when you purchase a domain from name.com by using this coupon “IPANEMA”. if it expires, just search on google “name.com discount coupon” or visit retailmenot.com
