Finding hosting & domain name

[Ferox]

So you're suggesting I get the domain at godaddy and the hosting from host gator? Sorry if I'mbeing dense but I haven't done this before.

Namecheap is the domain registrar I like, and they include free whois privacy.

Still thinking hard and trying to understand.

At the moment there are two domains I'm interested in. I can't see where to actually buy two or more domains at the same time with godaddy, I can see where to search for domans but not where to actually buy them. Two domains would cost me $10 to $20.

With hostgator, a year's baby hosting would cost me $120, but let me host both domains there, right? So I'd be looking at spending $140 to set up both sites.

Even considering the $25 rebate from bloggeries, that's still more than I can afford this month.

But can anyone tell me if I'm on the right track so far with all this?

@ Ferox, you can pay monthly. Hostgator costs $9.95/month, and you can get the first month at $0.01 with a coupon code. Domains cost $7.15 with the coupon code OYH3 at GoDaddy, so buy them there, change nameservers and you'll set

Will that still work with Bloggeries' rebate code? I'm just making sure here.
