Registering a Domain Name

You will be presented with multiple screens attempting to up sell you on with multiple, typically unneeded products. Registering 2 domain names cost $19.98 via Network Solutions

Remember, you need to change the nameservers on a domain via registrar control panel BEFORE adding it to your account, it may take 24 to 72 hours to completely update the nameservers (it usually does not take that long): Please verify your nameservers and/or change them to: ns1.byet.org ns2.byet.org ns3.byet.org ns4.byet.org ns5.byet.org The nameservers are changed via your domain registrar [in our case Network Solutions] control panel, NOT your hosting control panel [in our case domainsforauthors.com]. With free domainsforauthors account name servers MUST be set first, before adding the domain here in control panel.
