Domain Names
There are two things every website must have:
- If you don’t have one already, you will need to register and rent a domain name, such as lab99.com or microsoft.com. (Sorry — both of these have already been taken!).
- You will also need to rent space for your website on a web server, a computer which anyone can access via the internet. See our Hosting page for details.
