What's the best way to but a domain name?
Is there a good way vs a bad way?
I just want my own website.
I'm a complete novice on these matters.

Also, who "owns" then to be able to sell them in the first place?
Who would be getting my money?
If you are interested, you can host a website on TOR for free, you just won't get a nice URL
Thanks. I'll check it out.

I use namecheap.com. They also accept bitcoin.
same for two years.. perfect !
Thank you! I like the sounds of that
How is it that a website like namecheap or GoDaddy have domains to sell? I'm curious to understand that part of the "plumbing".
If a domain name isn’t reserved, they will create one on your behalf using a specific TLD registrar for that extension. Technically, you are leasing it because you can’t actually own one unless you are the TLD. That’s why there’s an annual fee. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Top-level_domain
Thank you again!
Used Namecheap for years, had no idea that they accept Bitcoin. Nice!
I think I paid for namecheap through their btc payserver on lightning.
I bought one!
Couldn't figure out how to pay with Bitcoin, but will sort that out later.
All I did was pay for it... What do I do next?
Can do my own research, but would love to get advice from Nostriches.

Useful list of hosting/domain companies that might be accepting bitcoin for payments. It is constantly updated so worth bookmarking imo.
Thank you!
