A domain name is your website's primary identity, which serves as a user-friendly alternative to numeric IP addresses. Think of a domain name as a phone number in your address book. Instead of typing in a complex IP address, you type the domain name. Domain names can also have different top-level domains (TLDs). This gives you a chance to stand out online.
There are tons of websites on the internet. That’s why when you select your domain name it’s important that you find a TLD that accurately reflects what your website is about. Bluehost sells a wide array of domain extensions such as: .com, .club, .co, .space, .us, .ca, .website, .org, .net, .me, .biz, .info, .online, .site and more. Domain extensions are the perfect way to express your brand in a vivid and creative way. If you want to buy domain name TLDs that are unique and stand out, we’ve got you covered.
You can easily check the availability of a domain name on this page. Simply enter your desired domain name in the search box and our system will tell you if it's available. If it's already taken, our system will suggest some alternative domain names that may work for you.
You can easily check the domain name availability of your preferred domain name using our domain search tool. Simply enter your preferred domain name and click Search. Once the results are displayed, you can review the details and finalize your purchase. If your chosen domain name isn’t available, Bluehost will suggest other available domain names you can choose from.
Your domain name represents your brand online. So, choose one that aligns closely with your business name and overall brand identity. We recommend choosing a domain name with relevant keywords. It will allow website visitors to easily access your website. Your domain name may contain letters, numbers or hyphens. Avoid special characters to keep it simple to remember and type.
Yes, it's worth it. When you purchase domain names, your contact details are displayed in public WHOIS records. Domain Privacy + Protection replaces them with generic Bluehost information, which reduces spam and lowers the risk of identity theft. It also scans your site for changes and harmful malware, sending alerts so you can act quickly.
A domain name tied to your business name adds credibility to your brand identity. It also helps visitors find you online. Building a branded website can attract more visitors and improve your online presence. Without a domain name, people would have to rely on your IP address. This is hard to remember and limits your website’s growth.
Premium domain names are brandable web addresses that carry special value. Examples include travel.com, bestcars.com and shoponline.net. Since premium domains are highly sought after, they are typically more expensive than standard domains. With Bluehost, you can easily search for and purchase premium domains to give your website a strong foundation.
Once you purchase a hosting plan with Bluehost, transferring your domain name is straightforward. To begin, unlock your domain at your current registrar and obtain an EPP or DNS transfer code. Then, log in to your Bluehost account and initiate the transfer process through your control panel. Domain transfers are typically completed within 5–7 days.
The cost of a domain name varies based on the extension you select, such as .com, .online or .store. The registration period and whether the domain is standard or premium also affect pricing. While standard domains are generally affordable, premium domains like cars.com can be much more expensive. You can also add features like Domain Privacy + Protection for extra security. Bluehost makes it easy to view transparent pricing and explore promotions.
