If you have a project in mind, if you want to make your online store, if you need to increase your online presence, if you are interested in making money with your blog, if you simply need a website or blog. In addition to having the web design and a good web hosting service, you need to find the ideal domain for what you want to do.

The purchase of the domain and hosting for a website is one of the most profitable and economic investments, but it can be much more if you buy the cheap domain and hosting.

Tips for buying a domain and hosting

Therefore, this time, we will help you by telling you how to save on the purchase of your domain and hosting with 9 tips.

1. Do not buy domains and hosting that you do not need. You may want to take advantage of a promotion or simply be interested in having more domains with one hosting. But the truth is that many domains are registered without being necessary or due to ignorance of their real value. Do not accumulate domains, always think before buying one.

  1. Buy your domain and hosting only when you need it. When you have the project already established and you will start it. This way you will avoid paying for the time you are not using it and you will not have accumulated domains without any use.
  2. Choose the appropriate extension. There are indeed more economic domain extensions and others with greater value. If you get more benefits with one extension than with another, do not bargain in the price, but if the result is the same, choose the domain extension that you like or the cheapest.
  3. Look at the price of domains and hosting after renewal. The offers and promotions of domains indicate the promotional price for one year. But the rate after the first year is the usual one. So, knowing what the first-year costs you should think about what you will have to pay after that period.
  4. If you receive a domain with your web hosting service, take the opportunity to acquire the one you need instead of paying it separately. You were going to buy the hosting as well, so if they give you a domain do not despise it (if you do not need it later with not renewing it is enough).
  5. A domain is important, but don't ruin yourself. In the secondary market of domains those domains that are already registered for sale. Buy them only when they are needed or think that it will benefit you a lot to have them. If not, look for alternatives among the domains that are available to register.
  6. Get the lowest price. In case you are going to buy a domain that is for sale in the secondary domain market, negotiate with the seller, without showing too much interest, to try to get the lowest price. If it involves a lot of money, consider the previous alternative again. It is not so advisable to buy domains now just to be able to sell them at a higher price because the best ones are usually already bought.
  7. Buy for SEO, but be careful. Certain practices such as buying domains to redirect or make SEO black hat are no longer as useful since the last changes in Google's algorithm. If you want domains to link-building, make sure you do it with different IP addresses and different emails so that Google does not track you.

9. Use coupons when paying your web domain or Hosting: It never hurts to save a little money and if we can do it easily much better. On the internet, there are a lot of sites related to coupons. By copying and pasting a code we can get the same product but cheaper. I tell you this because I found in a discount portal for web hosting coupons and saved a lot of money. You can save small amounts that can add an interesting positive balance at the end of the month.
