HI all! I'm new here, and I'm trying to get my dad to allow me to buy a domain ^^, I was wondering, does a free domain name come with a deluxe plan? Or do I have to register my domain name someplace else?

You have to purchase the domain name seperately. None of the plans come with them. You can purchase the domain from surpassdomains, or any other domain registrar...

Patrick is correct.

:secret:
Also, be weary of getting a "free domain" with a plan at another hosting company. They register the domain under their own company name and sometimes won't let you have it back, because technically it belongs to them.

The admin contact of the domain should _always_ be your email address that you can check, and not someone else's.

Say no to "free domains!"
:yuck:

Do you have any more questions about this? I am closing the thread.

If you do, send me a PM.

Snide, thanks for the humor, as always. :partysmiley:
