DOMAIN
NAMES
Domain
names are an integral part of the internet world. A domain name can
be described as the unique name that identifies a website - for example.
www.domainnames.com.
There
are some useful things to know when selecting a domain name - these
tips may help you:
Tips
on choosing a domain name
-Get
a group of friends or colleagues together and 'brain storm' to generate
ideas for your website's domain name.
-Choose a domain name that is easy to remember and easy to type.
-Limit the length of your domain name - ideally to a maximum of about
20-25 characters.
-Choose a domain name that contains a popular keyword relevant to your
website subject (the advantage being that you may achieve a higher ranking
on search engines plus, it may be easier to remember for your customers).
-Use a ".com" extension to increase credibility of your site
in the US (in other countries, the country abbreviation may be more
relevant - e.g. ".jp" for Japan.
-Once you have decided upon your domain name, get it registered as soon
as possible - remember, there are thousands of other people in the process
of registering domain names simultaneously.
-Try to avoid using the digit "0" in your domain name, simply
because zero gets confused with the letter "O".
-Take care not to choose and register a trademark name that you do not
own as there is legislation to protect trademark use abuse.
-Consider registering multiple domain names and tie these to your main
domain name to capture more traffic.
Don't
Forget that domain names:
-are not case sensitive
-must begin and end with a letter or number.
-cannot contain spaces
-can contain up to 63 characters!
