And, what's all of this stuff that gets added on to Go Daddy? My $10 registration quickly ballooned up to $100. Do I need all of this other stuff? Do I need to hold every other version of the name with .net, .org etc? I don't think I need an email address since - or do I? And, do I want Private Registration? Am I really going to get slammed with spam without it? (Of course, I'm using my home address, so maybe that one is worth it.)

• I don't think I need an email address - or do I? I would, but it probably isn't necessary. If you don't, make sure that the an email address is prominently displayed. (Well, even if you do get an associated email address, make sure it is prominently displayed.)
• And, do I want Private Registration? Am I really going to get slammed with spam without it? (Of course, I'm using my home address, so maybe that one is worth it.) Since you are using your home address, I would go with the Private Reg. There's enough weirdos in the world (besides me) that you really don't want having access to your home addy.
