Where should I buy a domain name if I plan on using blogspot as my host?

Question:

What is the cheapest and most reliable site to buy domain names? I don’t yet have my blog, but plan on using blogspot as my host with .blogspot.com in the URL, THEN changing it to my own domain.

Answer:

Can’t do that with a sub-domain host. You have to buy your own domain name and use it on a paid hosting plan. Many hosting sites offer a free domain name as part of their paid hosting packages, too.

You can buy cheap domain names at NameCheap.

Instead of using Blogger, use WordPress to build your blog. It’s much more powerful and you’ll have an endless supply of free themes and plugins.

Here are some cheap web hosts that have 1-click WordPress installation. iPage, WebHostingHub, WebHostingPad.
