Every Tom Dick And Harry Has A Domain Name

What's in a domain name?

Your business. What your business is about. How people will see your business. Whether or not people will opt to do business with you. All that, in your domain name.

Domain names are important because it is what people will initially look up even before they enter your website. One glance is all it takes for visitors to either enter your site or ignore it totally.

Why not create your own creative and catchy domain name instead of buying that first available name you saw online? Sounds difficult? Not really. Below are some pointers to guide you in getting the name that will define you and your business for years to come.

Keywords.

What is your business about? What are the keywords your business should fall into?

These are the questions to ask. Do some research online and list down what keywords best describe your business. The name of your site should be related to what your domain will be. You will make it easier for your readers to know what you are offering.

Assume that visitors are always in a hurry. So the best thing to do is give it to them upfront using your domain name.

Length.

All the short names are already taken. But that doesn't mean there is nothing unique left for you.

Longer domain names are fine. Not very long though. What matters is that it makes sense and is catchy at the same time. Put yourself in the position of your readers. Would you be enticed to go into the website when you see that domain name?

Eye-catcher. One-of-a-kind. Appealing. Your domain name should have all these, no matter how short or long it is.

Extension.
