Choosing a domain name is the first and the most important step of starting an online business.
If we want to succeed online we have to pay attention to the following points when choosing a domain name!
1.Can we build a known brand around it?:
When choosing a domain name we have to pay attention to its uniqueness. It is always suggested that we end the chosen name with .com and to make sure no one else uses the same or similar domain name before we complete the purchase.
2.Is the domain name relevant to our service?:
When choosing a domain name we have to make sure it is relevant to our service. If our blog talks about weight loss, we should use words that tell us what the blog talks about on the first glance.
3.How easy it is to remember:
Yes, this is also a valid point we have to pay attention to before making the purchase. To succeed online our names have to be attractive and memorable. Our visitors should remember our name. It is also important to keep it as short as possible while still maintaining its memorability.
4.Do we use a commonly searched for keyword in our domain?:
If we choose a keyword that is commonly searched for on different web browsers like Google, Yahoo and Bing, our website will appear higher in the search result list.
If we include the keyword “weight loss” our website will be even more relevant to the theme and thus bring in more visitors that search for such keywords.
5.Did we think about it well enough?:
Our domain is what makes our blog stand out so we have to pick a name that is easy to remember and read. We have to take at least some time to think before we make the purchase.
I choose a nice domain name for my blog and I can say I am truly happy with what I picked.
