Launch
Pick a name, register it on Namecheap, and set up privacy protection. You walk away owning a real web address.
Right now people would have to type a string of numbers to reach your app. That does not look like a real product and nobody will remember it. A domain name fixes that. This tool walks you through choosing a name, checking if it is available, registering it on Namecheap, and turning on privacy protection so your personal details are not publicly visible. Students can get a free .me domain. Everyone else pays around ten dollars a year.
If your first choice is taken, the tool helps you find alternatives.
Students with a .edu email can apply for a free .me domain through the education program.
You will need it in the next step when you point it at your server.
A registered domain name that belongs to you, not rented from a platform and not locked to a service
WHOIS privacy protection turned on so your personal details are not publicly visible in domain records
Your domain confirmed and written down, ready for the next step where you point it at your server
