I finally registered a domain name for this blog, through Host Gator's new registrar service; Registry Rocket. As with most things economic, I prefer to go local., so it made sense. Host Gator takes care of a few other sites I set up, and I've been more than happy.
The registry isn't that new, this is simply the first time I've had need for a new domain name since then, though I have transferred a few existing ones already.

DNS stands for "domain name server." A domain name server is the computer (or one of several) that "serves" requests for your Web site or email address. Think of a DNS as the battery for your domain name. The more powerful the DNS, the more likely people will be able to see your site, send you email, etc. If the DNS isn't strong enough, people may have trouble reaching you.Most companies offer customers one or two domain servers -- one main server, and one for backup. When you register your domain name with us, your domain name is backed by six servers distributed around the U.S. The result? Superior connectivity and reliability.
