For cheap domain names go to GoDaddy.com. I use them myself.

Thanks for the mention. Definitely take the time to look into services, make sure they’re a good fit for you, make sure they’re on the level and have the right deal. Be careful to make sure there are no “fine print” problems like EXCLUSIVITY or MINIMUM TERMS, and whatever you do, don’t sign away any of your rights! I also urge anyone who thinks they might sell more than ten copies of their album in a year to avoid any service that takes a percentage. Why give up a cut, forever, unlimited?

Thanks for the mention. Feel free to write if there are any questions.
