    Doesnt matter but if you get it yourself than you can manage it instead of giving them control, that way if you fire them the dont have anything to do with the domain name. Meet with them first to see what they offer. You can get the domain name when you are done meeting with them. Shouldnt be expensive $20 a year. Make sure you have total right over the website if you fire them ie... you get all the html files.

    If you need any help, let me know. I was the Dir of Mkt for a corp. so I have the experience. Good luck with it. If you are mmeeting with them next week and you think there is a chance the name you want could be purchased I would go ahead and get it.

    so basically i buy it, it's mine, now i tell them here's the domain name and let's build the site around this. the reason i ask is because i have apparel that is waiting to be made and i can get that in the works a week earlier if i have the website name ready to go on the apparel
    i have a PR person helping with more marketing and we're meeting saturday as far as magazines, radio, and newspaper stuff, in addition to other things
    i'm just trying to get some of the little stuff out of the way that i can do before this weekend

    Yes. Buy it and you can always transfer it. i've built a couple of sites through network solutions and they are pretty nice. (very cheap too). There tools to build sites are great.

    Hey, werent you talking about your clothing line like 3 years ago, that you wanted to or you were getting started? If that wasnt you, my bad mustve been someone else, but if so, cool you are getting it under way!! Props man.

    As for domain names, pretty simple just as everyone here said. Just dont forget to renew the name when it expires.
