Domain names. Help please.

I want to set up a web site and want a name. How does one go about doing this? There's a lot of companies selling em but how do you know if they are geniune?
And what do you get for the money ? Just a name ?

So many questions...........

You can register a domain name with 1&1 in no time. A .co.uk address is only £4.68 for 2 years there, others typically about £10 a year.

You get the name, and a control panel to point your 'name' at whichever webserver you have your website on.

Ha - I know - loads of people comment - I used to think it was amusing but the amount of times a day I have to spell the f*cker means I am growing rather tiresome of it!!
