Domain names are the names that you type in your browser when visiting a website such as Google.com, Amazon.com, and MoneySaving.com. When you have a business idea and need to build a website around it to sell a product or service, the first thing you need to do is search for and register a domain name, an example of a domain name would be yourownbusiness.com or supernewidea.com.

Godaddy is one of many registrars that offers domain name registration for about $14 per year. Once you have searched for an available domain name you will be asked to pay for the first year, you can choose to pay the full price or enter a promo code and save anywhere between 75% to 90%, promo codes are available on the internet, here are a couple of websites where you can find them:

If you want to look for those $0.99 per year or $1.49 per year, copy the promo code and apply during the registration check-out process at Godaddy, if it does work try another promo code, one of them will eventually work, sometimes Godaddy will show that the promo code was applied but doesn’t save you anything, it’s OK, try another one, you can try as many times as necessary to save yourself some money, there will be no repercussion against you, your domain, or your account.

Once you complete your domain name registration process you will essentially have a “business entity” on the Internet and own the domain, you will have to renew the name every year, and every year apply a promo code.

All you need now is a website. Look for promo codes, coupons, and deals, during every stage of building your Internet business and enjoy the money savings.
