A Place on the Internet to Call Your Very Own
October 2004
Imagine having your own Internet domain -
your very own dot-com that says something about
you or your business. Think that's too techie
for the average person? Think again, because its
just about as easy as buying a book online.
Recent industry research shows that new
registrations for domain names are rapidly
increasing as more and more individuals and
businesses are tapping into the power of the
Internet to socialize, sell and communicate.
During the first three months of this year, 4.7
million new domain names were registered, a 21
percent increase over the same time period last
year, and the highest quarterly figure in the
history of the Internet. In total, there are 63
million registered domain names.
With 50,000 domain names selling every day, now is
the time to grab one for your personal use, or to
help launch a new small business or extend an
existing one. Today, it is easier and more
affordable than ever for anyone to stake a claim
to a piece of the Internet. In fact, registering a
domain name for a whole year can cost about the
same price of one movie ticket.
In addition to the domain, Website hosting
services also are very inexpensive and offer
consumers a comprehensive, user-friendly personal
Internet experience for less money. And with free
web design programs, anyone can create his or her
own Website in a matter of hours, without having
specialized technical skills.
