Setup Instructions
| This page explains how to register a domain name (example.com) and
setup your Web Hosting with KICS |

Before you do anything else you need to either
There are lots of places to register domain names. For example, .com / .net / .org domains can be registered with gandi.net, domaindiscover.com and godaddy.com. Registrants that handle .ca domains include domainsatcost.ca, reg.ca, and cadns.ca. Many registrats will try and sell you additional services (such as hosting or domain parking), however, all you need is your domain name.
