A Guidebook On Domain Names

By:

A domain name is the name by which Internet users get into your website. It is the text name that is equivalent to the numeric IP address of a PC on the Internet. Since that is your identity on which the success of your business depends, it should be exclusive and reflective of your business.

Although most people feel they do not really need a domain name, the fact is that a domain name is very important for a business to be successful. After all, business revolves round sales, and sales depend on credibility. Having a domain name is the first step towards building credibility. It makes your customers feel comfortable while doing business with you. There are many search engines that give importance to the home page of a particular domain.

Not that your business depends entirely on a domain name, but it does go a long way in determining success. So you must choose a domain name intelligently. First, you must select a proper register web address from the various options like .net, .org, .biz and others. However, ‘.com’ is the most popular extension and also it lends more credibility to your business. You can just use alphabets, numbers, and dashes as domain names but make sure there are no spaces and special symbols, because they are not permitted. Domain names are not case sensitive either.

A good domain name should be short and simple; not long, ambiguous and confusing. Ideally, it should not exceed 14-16 characters. You should spend a lot of time and use your creativity to think of a catchy domain name. Make sure you spell it correctly and include at least two keywords in it. Keywords help search engines to rank them.

Domain names that were once used but have expired are a useful place to search for your domain name. This way you can have a good idea about what kind of a domain name will fit you. Make sure you do not get into any copyright infringement issue with your domain name.

Also, do not register your domain name with your web host in order to avoid having to move your domain if and when you decide to change your host. Keep the two separate otherwise it is quite a hassle.

There are many options available within the parameters to make your domain name exclusive. You can have more than one domain name; you can have full name and a short name; and spell your domain differently. Thus, you can be sure you have them all and no one else can tread in your domain.

You must ask around and take a vote for the best name. Do not decide on your own. There is a storehouse of ideas around you. Take advantage of that. Ask your friends, relatives, colleagues, employees and others for ideas.

Finally, keep the cost under control. There is much competition and if you look around, you can get the best possible rate. So, take your time and shop around for the best bargain.
