Indeed you can purchase from somebody like www.NeedAWebDomain.com and the use their free of charge internet hosting credit to host it appropriate there. They give totally free internet hosting account automatically which is wonderful.
Or if you want you can host it with a no cost internet hosting supplier. Through your free of charge internet hosting provider just have to supply some facts so they know you personal the domain.
What do you assume? Answer beneath!

There are a few options.
Some sites allow you to choose a custom subdomain on their domain. For example, http://www.bravenet.com allows you to pick a subdomain for your content, so your pages can be found at moogle.bravenet.com or hippy.bravenet.com or whatever you desire.
You can also purchase a domain name only, and then configure it as a URL redirect (it’ll be an option on the domain ‘control panel’/set up page). With this, you can have your domain name point to any other page, even a page hosted on another site.
Otherwise, you can purchase a domain name with hosting included. You will then have access to one of the host’s servers and instructions on how to upload files to that server. The domain name will automatically be set up to look to your account.

You can buy a domain name and setup with a free website at http://WebStarts.com. But the best thing to do is just build a site with http://WebStarts.com and then purchase the domain name from them. It will automatically be setup with your website in a few minutes.
If you do buy a domain name elsewhere you can set it up to work with Webstarts.

Begin with setting up your own webpage as your current internet provider will provide free hosting as discussed below.
If you are currently a paid Internet subscriber, you are entitled to a “homepage” which often contains simple navigation and editing tools. And if you use the Netscape browser, the built-in Composer feature is a superior HTML authoring tool which is totally free. You can easily generate a full-blown website as a Homepage by FTPing your webpages created in NotePad, Word, FrontPage, or DreamWeaver.
Nevertheless, the “homepage” URL is likely to be “http://homepage.earthlink.com/subscribe… name” and that URL can easily be overwritten via a redirection service, i.e., “mydomain.com” which allows you to link any registered domain name to “mask” another website. For example, should you type in the “domain name,” you will be immediately transported to the homepage and the hompage URL of http://homepage.earthlink.com/subscriber... a homepage URL which will be masked by the domain name. And the charge for the redirection service [even at godaddy.com] is normally FREE. The redirection option is also referred to as “forwarding URL” with “masking” of a parked domain name at Godaddy.com.
When you acquire a domain name, connect it using a redirection service [as discussed above] and submit/publish the domain name on major search engines/directories in order for Net surfers to find your website.
Good luck!
