Setting Up a Domain Name for Email Address Portability

In summary, choosing a domain name for your Pampered Chef website should be easy and memorable, using your business name or relevant keywords. You can use your existing domain name, but will need to update the nameservers or transfer it to our recommended registrar. The setup process can take anywhere from a few minutes to 48 hours. Multiple domain names are possible, but each must be set up separately. While social media is important, having your own domain name for your Pampered Chef website is still necessary for a professional and customizable online presence.

We are getting ready to move and I would like to change our ISP. I would like to have the option of moving from one ISP to another without losing my email address. I know I can contunue to pay Comcast $10/month just to keep my address and not use them as an ISP. However, I was thinking, it would be great to bite the bullet now and just come up with my own domain, like [email protected] (I know I cannot use this actual address). This way I can move to a different ISP in the future and not worry about the email address. How do I go about setting up my own domain?
 
go to any domain register site such as register.com or domain.com and see if what you want is available. Within your e-mail prgram you can forward mail to the new domain e-mail. You can also set up free e-mail via hotmail or yahoo etc
 
or gmail.com (which is Google)
 
use the email here and be @chefsucess.com
 
I agree with setting up an email with a free, online based service like Gmail, Yahoo etc, or creating a Chefsuccess email that forwards to wherever you want it to go. It's free, and you don't have to change it when you switch ISPs.

But if you do want a domain, I got mine from GoDaddy.com
 
I use Yahoo and then pay the yearly fee to keep from having their ads on my e-mails. ;)
