So I'm installing Mattermost for the first time on a Ubuntu machine running version 16.04 LTS. I've followed several instructions online but the main one I've been using is https://docs.mattermost.com/install/install-ubuntu-1604.html. I'm using SQL instead of PostgreSQL. When I initially install it I can point my browser to http://localhost:8065, create a team and start configuring the settings. What I'm confused about is what I'm supposed to put in for the Site-URL. I understand that this is the URL that team members point their browsers to since they can't use the localhost link above. All of the instructions I've seen just say to use your own domain. Do I have to register a domain with somebody like Godaddy before I can start using Mattermost? That doesn't seem right, but I'm stuck at this point. I can't invite team members until I get this figured out. Thanks for you help!
