How to Purchase a Domain using GoDaddy
Transcript:
Hi there, I’m Jason from Grow My Business. I’m one of the lead developers here, and today I wanna show you how to buy a domain.
So this is my web browser arc. It looks a little bit different from yours, I can only imagine, but if you like workflows, automation, stuff like that, I’d heavily check, recommend check it out. It’s pretty cool. But anyways, where my video tutorials profile rather accurately, they’d search for something. Uh, my preferred domain provider is GoDaddy, right? So GoDaddy, it is just the simplest one to use.
Um, it’s got great support, it’s reasonably priced. There are cheaper options. I won’t like name names, but some providers will skimp you in the end and will end up being more expensive for doing things. Some real basic things like text records that you’ll need to do for email marketing, CRMs, et cetera. So it’s just not worth saving that couple, like $3 a year just go with GoDaddy.
It’s got, like I said, great support. It’s just the all round, probably the most best thing. And then for things like G Suite or auto sync your record, so you don’t have to go in and do all that nervous stuff, I mean,
you’ll still have to do that for some things. But for big providers, they’ve got automatic integrations with GoDaddy. So it is just really good if you’re starting off buying domains, you can share your domains, you can give delegate access to developers if you don’t wanna give your passwords.
So yeah, I just, yeah, highly recommend GoDaddy. But anyway, here’s the process. So we’ve landed on the homepage, oops. And, uh, we’ve gonna find us our domain. So, uh, I wanna get Jason video services and then we’re going down here, right?
It’s doing its thing. So bam, exact match. Jason Video Services. Oh, spelled services wrong. Don’t mind that. So that’s a good deal there. So ascent for a three year plan. So if you’re committing to having any business, you know it’s gonna work great.
That means you’re only paying $68 for three years on your domain. It might be in sd, but still killer deal anyways. But, uh, what I’d recommend doing is getting a doco.nz domain. Since I’m hypothetically trading in New Zealand, I want to have my correct extension for my country. It helps with customer reinforcement.
They like it just, it’s just good to have your domain with the country you’re trading in. Makes people more comfortable trading with you. So anyways, that’s it. It’s my little, uh, explainer on the extensions.
There’s tons of other ones, but these are, they’re not as nice as.co nz and consumer confidence is just not gonna be there. Like do xyz that’s usually used in hacking sites and stuff. Art co shop is kind of good, you know, if you’ve got like a second domain, but I’ll just stick with the dot coms, dot co nz au, et cetera.
So I’m just gonna click make it yours. So I’ll add it to your cart. We’ll continue to our cart.
And you can see it’ll try upsell you a couple things like free website builder, it’s not worth it. Use one of our starter sites or come get, uh, come get a website ’cause those are just not gonna get you anywhere. Um, and here you can set up your, uh, Microsoft 3, 6, 5 email. I do like Microsoft 3 6 5, but personally I do use G Suite and we do a tutorial for G Suite.
But if you’re a Microsoft person, look, this is probably the easiest way to do it, is just doing it through GoDaddy. So I’d recommend actually doing that if you’re on a business email, it’s real simple and they’ll do everything for you. You don’t have to do any the complex stuff, but like I said, I prefer G Suite and we do have a tutorial for that on our, uh, info portal.
But anyways, we’ll just do, don’t do anything for now in my case. And we’re just gonna continue on to, uh, the thing. And then you can see here some of my previous attempts of the tutorial videos. We’ve got a couple domains in here.
What I’m gonna do is just do a single year, you know, maybe just starting out a new project, you don’t know if it’s gonna pull through. That certainly happened to me, had some lofty ideas with making apps. So I’ll just get the one year. So yeah, or you can do 3, 5, 10, whatever.
It’s doesn’t really give you much of a discount, so I wouldn’t, I don’t mind if you have something like
honey, like a discount code finder, you might find a promo code. Sometimes it actually does work on GoDaddy, but either way, we’re all ready to pay.
I’m ready to pay. And then you’ll go through account creation. And then just like any other thing, put your card details in and you’ll off to the races. And once you have your domain, you can share it with your developer. You can go in and do stuff yourself, it’s all yours.
And that’s it really. So thank you so much. Cheers. Stop recording.
