So, I'm confused about some basics having to do with web pages (not having ever created one myself).
I've got a group of people who want their own domain. Let's call it xyz.com. And xyz.com doesn't appear to be claimed by anyone, out there.
Do we/they have to go to one of those registrars and pay them for the privilege of "having" xyz.com? I mean, it doesn't seem to cost a lot, so that's okay. But I hate to go out there and pay for something that someone with a bit of savvy could figure out how to do without forking over bucks.
You'd think I'd know these things by now.
