web domains

I'm beginning to attempt to set up a website for my wife's business, and was wondering if any of you guys have set up a website before? I began by searching for a domain name, looking at register.com, networksolutions.com, and finally godaddy.com. Godaddy seems to be the cheapest for at least getting a domain name registered.

This is my first time doing this -- anyone have any suggestions? Thanks!
 
GoDaddy is cheap and they've done well for my company. If you're planning on setting up a site mainly for friends/family, images, etc. then their economy plan should do you right.

I'd suggest buying your domain and hosting service from the same company, one less bill to pay.

Just my .02... I'm sure others have had decent experiences with others.

Actually I plan on setting up a few pages for her business. I am considering godaddy, but also our local phone/web provider.
 
If going local ask for their uptime percentages, they should be in the 99% range if you're planning on hosting business related pages. This is the amount of time the network is accessible, it should not be down for more than 1% of the time.

These days it's getting easier to get a decent quality hosted account, I don't think you'll go wrong if you purchase from any of the domain providers you listed above or with a reputable local service provider.
