- Registration and Checkout Options: Choose registration length (by default it is for 2 years) and auto renew for your domain after expiration.
There are a few types of registrations. The difference between public (standart plan) and private (deluxe plan) registration is whether your personal information will be available to the public. If you buy private registration, none of your details will be publicly available. You can view a personal information of domain owner in WHOIS directory websites.
To buy some additional services, choose "Customize my order" and click "Continue", otherwise choose "No thanks" and click "Continue". - Review Your Shopping Cart: Pay attention that your cart includes only services you want. You may want to remove "Business Registration". To get some additional discount, insert GoDaddy coupon code and click "Apply code".
