Why register variations of my domain name?
If the exact domain name you want isn't available, you may want to consider registering an alternative or related variation. This also prevents other people from infringing or capitalizing on your site by registering a name that is similar to yours.
My domain is taken. How do I get it now?
If your search results say your domain is already taken, it means someone else has previously registered that name. To backorder the domain, check the box next to the backorder option and click "Continue". If you don't want to backorder the name, you can select from the alternate domain names provided or search again using a different TLD extension (.com, .net, .org, etc.), a variation of your original search or a different name altogether.
Why register different TLDs?
If your search results say your domain is available, you may want to consider also registering the same name with additional TLD extensions (.com, .net, .org, etc.). This prevents other people from infringing or capitalizing on your site by registering the same name with a different TLD.

What is a ''blog''?
A web log (or ''blog'') is similar to an online journal. It's largely text-based, so it's easy for anyone to update. Blogs are used to share all types of information, from personal stories and photos to sharing your thoughts on world events. In addition, most blogs allow visitors to post responses to entries and leave feedback for the owner of the site. Overall, a blog is a fast, easy and fun way to establish an online presence.
Entering a Domain Name
