My Magazine Website


Every magazine has it's own website for the customers to have a look at online for the latest news etc. therefore, I visited the website https://www.123-reg.co.uk which is a website that allows you to look at website domains that are available to use worldwide. 



I firstly decided to type in 'partypop' as this is the name of my magazine, however when I searched this, 'partypop.com' was already taken,


So I then searched for 'partypopmag' which was fortunately available in many domains. For my magazine I chose 'partypopmag.com' because it short and snappy and because it's my magazines name, it will be easier for my audience to remember it.
