Choose a Domain and Host Provider

For starters, we recommend that you use GoDaddy.com for both domain registry and hosting.

Use the Domain Search Toolbar at the top of the page to find an available domain that fits your muse. Once you've found one, you'll want to continue through to registration.

Once you hit the domain registration page, they will ask you for your information, and they will bombard you with a bunch of offers that you don't need. Just keep saying, "No thanks," until you get to the Host Puchase page.

When they ask you about hosting, make sure to select the Deluxe Web Hosting Plan. That way, you can upload a new domain and muse test site to the same host if this muse fails the initial test. It's a little more expensive, but it is cheaper in the long run if your first muse test fails. (Which will probably happen)

Then, enter your payment information and follow the instructions to create your host account login and password. Once you have created your account and waited for the activation period, you are ready to upload your finished site.
