Domain Question

Ok... I know I want to sign up and get an account here. My only question is with purchasing a domain. I can register one with hostgator for $15 and I was wondering

1. Is that a yearly charge that must be made?

2. Does it have whois privacy?

Also, is there a place you'd recommend buying a domain name from? I'm completely clueless when it comes down to this kind of stuff.

The domain fee is charged per year, yes.

You are not required to register it with us, you may choose any registrar. Here are a couple you can look at:

www.godaddy.com
