Use coupons to save 97USD, you can google " dreamhost coupon ", if there is 97USD coupon than take it, its the full discount they can offer you ^_^
you gotta buy co.jp your own lol..... on other sites [ probably from a japanese site ] |

I found a coupon  Omg what a discount. Would only cost about 2.50$ a month... That's shockingly cheap. Thanks kazfz for the tip. And yeah, it was the 97$ discount coupon... That is so awesome. Well I guess I don't need co.jp..  |

Actually .co.jp is for Japanese companies, I don't think there's a good reason for you to get that  If possible, you should aim for top level domain (TLD) such as .com, .net, .org etc, with .com being the most popular and hence valuable in a sense. Also, I believe your website is targeted towards international users, having .co.jp kinda mislead people to think your site is made specially for Japanese users.
Anyway, if you really want it you can buy a domain via another company and use your Dreamhost account to host your site, all you need to do is to change the nameserver via the company that help you register your domain. |

Well I don't need to co.jp actually, but i was just thinking about that since my site will be in both japanese and english  Thanks for the info eyn!! I have already made up the domain name (and checked from Dreamhost that it's available), and it's pretty much going to be a .com one 
I was sad when I couldn't get a ---.livejournal.jp since my blog is fully in japanese  |
