    I have had nothing but good experiences with them as well. I don't host with them though. Just register domains.

    Not quite that easy. You have to find a hosting provider. Most registrars offer that service. You register a domain name but you have to point the domain at a server that will host or run the webpage. If you go to godaddy, 1and1, etc. they have hosting for additional $$ per month. Or you can find another hosting provider, register the domain name, sign up for hosting account, and then point the domain at the server that will host it. Then upload your html files.

    Ok, so I'm going through godaddy and let me get this straight, i have to pay a monthly fee for the domain registration and then another monthly fee for hosting? Each one is like $5 a month.

    No, a one time fee for domain registration, then yearly renewal, and a monthly hosting fee.
