    ... how do you go about buying a web name that isnt taken?


    Ive just typed it in to check and its a page error, therefore i presume its not taken, or can it be bought by a company and on holding?


    How do i find out answers to these questions? [:-B]

    I use One & One they seem to be the cheapest(I've found in the UK) and I've never once had a problem with them.

    Just because a page doesn't appear doesn't mean it's not taken, go to that link above and check. If you want to put a webpage up with that address you'll need somewhere to host it.

    You can either go free to geocities(with stupid gay banners) or pay like 5 a month to get some paid space which is really handy.
