DreamHost the best..

How I did it: Just gotta do it. Find someone with cheap hosting (bluehost.com has cheap hosting ($7/month) and gives you a free domain when you register) and go for it.
Lessons & tips: Quibbling over the name is the hardest part. You just gotta do it.

I have now bought a domain by saving enough money from my online jobs. I now write almost daily movie reviews on it and is quite proud of myself! It was registered on www.domainsite.com ($6.99).
I am thinking about buying more domains in the future, but that can really wait since I don’t have enough to renew this one—I’m planning to. We’ll see :) Visit me any time: www.cinebash.org
Mine is adelineong.com
I bought it at hostonfire.com
It is pretty cheap but my main reason is to get the domain before someone else of the same name does. =)
I’d also like to start a podcast (if/when I get a high-speed connection) ... but I don’t know how to handle the legality issues with that. (Any advice would be welcome!)
