Personalized Domain Names

Posted on: June 2, 2008

Having potential employers or clients locate your portfolio on the ever-growing World Wide Web with ease is a key to getting your body of work recognized.

Our WebPublishing system generates a web address something like http://portfolio.colum.edu/JoeStudentSmith/. This address could be confusing to someone who wants to see your website, and they may forget that web address you wrote down.

Purchasing and registering a unique domain name such as joestudentsmith.com will allow potential employers or clients to visit your site by remembering a simple web address. (Tip: Domain Names should be short and easy to remember.)

Below are some suggested sites to purchase and register your domain name (Tip: shop around for the best price and service. The current average price for a one-year registration is $10.00)
