Step Three: Domain Name + SSL/TLS Certificates
​
A domain name functions as a digital address for a website, like "google.com" or "facebook.com". Registering and securing it incurs an annual fee, typically ranging from $10 to $17 per year after the initial free year. If you already own a domain, we can seamlessly transfer it to your new website.
