Tom_Tsang123 Posted November 8, 2016 Share Posted November 8, 2016 (edited) As stated in the caption, I have bought a domain name. What should I do? I heard that there is some other thing I also have to buy. What is that and what programming I should learn (as I am actually a noob) after that?? Thank you very much. P.S. A special link of my future website containing some photos (I think you understand what I mean) will be pmed to everyone of you ONLY IF you offer help to me.

davej Posted November 10, 2016 Share Posted November 10, 2016 Normally you buy a domain name and also buy web-hosting.

I bought my domain name here: www.now.top Is it good to buy web hosting also from here? Note: it is just for self learning practice purpose.
