if you get a domain from the same company as your hosting...you should be able to login into your admin panel and setup your email, and ftp.

Then upload your homepage using ftp program to "public_html" folder

walla....your homepage is done!

JLHC will become famous soon enough JLHC will become famous soon enough
Normally you will at least get:-
  • Full WHOIS Control
  • Full DNS Control
  • A & MX Records Control
  • Domain Locking & EPP Key
  • Domain Registrar Change
  • Unlimited Parked Domains

Some even let you configure your own nameservers as well as Whois protection.

I would recommend eNom and NameCheap.

I am looking to buy a domain name from a local company too (Malaysia) so I can pay online without going through the RM-$ exchange or credit card

What about exabytes? RM 55 for .com domain registration?

RM55 is so expensive...
You can get at most also RM35 after converting from US $ to RM.

I would recommend you to go register at NameCheap.

If you use their April coupon code (which can be obtained by searching online), the price is only $8.41 per year.

So,
$8.41 = RM 26.91
(Exchange rate of $1 = RM3.20)

I just posted a lists that indicate registrar offering domain in cheap price. For me I recommended you register you domain in mydomain.com, by using coupon code " htmli.info " which will lead u to get 15% discount. The second choice for me is moniker.com, they are secure but the price is a bit higher, which is USD 10.44

you will get a control panel for your domain name, control over the DNS is the main function.

if you which to start a website, the next thing is look for hosting. Hosting do provide the Nameserver, such as ns7.hostingcompany.com

just key in in the domain control panel
