• How to buy a domain name

  Once you’ve created a custom domain that you feel best represents your business, it’s time to buy the domain name. Below, we’ve outlined the steps you must take in order to buy a domain for your business:

  1. Pick an accredited domain registrar: Make sure to buy a domain from a registrar that’s accredited by the Internet Corporation for Assigned Names and Numbers (ICANN). If you attempt to buy a domain from an unaccredited registrar, you run the risk of falling victim to a scam.
  2. Use a domain availability checker tool: Enter your preferred custom domain into a domain availability checker tool—such as the one offered by Mailchimp—to ensure nobody else is using your domain. If your domain is unavailable, you’ll either have to choose a different domain name or offer to buy the domain you want from the current owner.
  3. Register and buy a domain name: Once you’ve determined that your preferred domain is available, you can buy the domain through Mailchimp. You’ll be required to enter some basic contact information in order to complete the registration of the domain.
  4. Verify your domain: The last step after buying a domain is to verify that domain. When you buy a domain through Mailchimp, you’ll receive a verification email that allows you to quickly verify your domain and begin using it.

• How to search domain names

  Mailchimp makes it easy to search for and buy a domain name. Use the search function found on our domains page to quickly and easily search for domains. With this tool, you can quickly search for domain names that align with your brand and view the associated costs. On this page, you can also check the availability of domain names that you’re interested in.

  If you’re trying to determine a domain name for your business, we recommend simply using your business name. However, if this domain is unavailable, you may have to get a little creative and do some more searching. Just make sure to choose a domain name that’s short, memorable, and true to your brand.
