00:00.660 --> 00:02.430
-: In this section, we're going to go through the process

00:02.430 --> 00:04.380
of purchasing a domain name that we're going

00:04.380 --> 00:07.290
to eventually use for our HTTPS setup.

00:07.290 --> 00:09.510
Now, as I said several times so far, you have

00:09.510 --> 00:12.690
to have a domain name to go to the setup process.

00:12.690 --> 00:13.800
There's many different websites

00:13.800 --> 00:15.750
that you can purchase a domain name from

00:15.750 --> 00:19.230
but we're going to be getting one from domains.google.com.

00:19.230 --> 00:21.238
Which is Google's domain service.

00:21.238 --> 00:25.290
If you choose to use a different domain registrar, do note

00:25.290 --> 00:27.150
that we're gonna have to do some setup

00:27.150 --> 00:29.340
on the domain registrar page.

00:29.340 --> 00:31.050
And so if you use a different setup

00:31.050 --> 00:33.720
or assuming a different provider such as Namecheap

00:33.720 --> 00:35.700
or GoDaddy or whatever it might be,

00:35.700 --> 00:37.740
the setup process is going to be different

00:37.740 --> 00:40.080
and it's going to be on you,

00:40.080 --> 00:42.660
to be honest, how to change the setup

00:42.660 --> 00:45.000
because I don't really know how to do domain setup

00:45.000 --> 00:48.960
or manipulation of records on say, GoDaddy.

00:48.960 --> 00:51.870
So if you're not gonna use Google domain registrar,

00:51.870 --> 00:54.840
kind of up to you to do a little bit of configuration.

00:54.840 --> 00:55.860
All right, so let's get to it.

00:55.860 --> 00:58.680
I'm going to go to domains.google.com

00:58.680 --> 01:00.080
inside of a new browser tab.

01:01.830 --> 01:02.970
Once here, you'll notice

01:02.970 --> 01:05.160
that I personally have actually already purchased a domain

01:05.160 --> 01:07.800
for use with our product, but I'm going to walk

01:07.800 --> 01:10.500
through the process of purchasing a new one.

01:10.500 --> 01:12.690
So I'll find the search domains tab here

01:12.690 --> 01:13.790
on the left hand side.

01:16.350 --> 01:18.900
And then we can search for any domain that you might want.

01:18.900 --> 01:20.040
So it's totally up to you.

01:20.040 --> 01:23.370
No requirements on the name or the TLD that it uses.

01:23.370 --> 01:24.203
So we could do something

01:24.203 --> 01:26.280
like, I don't know just total gibberish if you want

01:26.280 --> 01:28.830
to pay like no money.

01:28.830 --> 01:30.690
I mean, even these are 12 bucks a year.

01:30.690 --> 01:32.160
If you want total gibberish.

01:32.160 --> 01:33.720
But hey, it's totally up to you.

01:33.720 --> 01:35.130
So you can pick out a domain name

01:35.130 --> 01:38.040
that you want, you can then add it to your cart

01:38.040 --> 01:41.580
and then go to your cart and check out.

01:41.580 --> 01:43.170
So here's that domain right here.

01:43.170 --> 01:44.670
Now, one thing to triple check,

01:44.670 --> 01:46.560
you'll want to turn off auto renew.

01:46.560 --> 01:49.800
Unless this is a domain that you want to hold onto.

01:49.800 --> 01:50.970
Now, once you find your domain

01:50.970 --> 01:53.400
and decide to purchase it, you can go to checkout

01:53.400 --> 01:55.410
and purchase the domain.

01:55.410 --> 01:58.860
After a little bit, you'll eventually see the domain appear

01:58.860 --> 02:02.640
on your domain dashboard back at domains.google.com.

02:02.640 --> 02:05.220
So for example, here's mine right here.

02:05.220 --> 02:07.200
Now, once you purchase the domain, we are going to go

02:07.200 --> 02:09.060
through just a tiny bit of setup.

02:09.060 --> 02:11.220
The setup that I just mentioned a second ago.

02:11.220 --> 02:12.270
So let's take a quick pause.

02:12.270 --> 02:13.380
We'll come back to the next section,

02:13.380 --> 02:15.570
and we're going to start to configure the domain

02:15.570 --> 02:16.770
that you just purchased.
