 ## How

-guide, I will use the registrar
-[Epik](https://www.epik.com/?affid=we2ro7sa6) because it is one of the
-more high quality and easy to use. The guides on this site will use
-Epik, but if you choose to register your domain with one of the [many,

-you can still do most of what Epik does, albeit options and settings
-might appear in different menus.
+Domains can be registered at any accredited <dfn>registrar</dfn> and there are
+[a lot to choose from](https://www.icann.org/en/accredited-registrars). Some major names are
+[Host Gator](https://www.hostgator.com/domains),
+[Blue Host](https://www.bluehost.com/domains),
+[Name Cheap](https://www.namecheap.com/domains/) or
+[Dream Host](https://www.dreamhost.com/domains/).
+
+There are also sites that are more private, like [Njalla](https://njal.la/) and
+[Cheap Privacy](https://cheapprivacy.ru/), which register a domain for you
+under their name, but still allow you access to it. (Normally all websites must
+be registered with the ICANN with a real name and address, but these sites
+allow you to bypass that.)

+Choosing a registrar is not permanent, and you can transfer domains to a
