Once you have a website you will need to get it registered with a domain name, the other thing you will need is a hosting company to host your website. In this article we will talk about the importance of choosing a good domain name for your online based business. A domain name is a product that carries some market value and there are entrepreneurs who actually trade in domain names as a full time business. Domain names are bought and sold all the time on the internet on domain auction sites and the prices of these can vary from cheap to extremely expensive. It all hinges on the perceived value of the name. If you choose your own domain name that has not previously been used, then you can register it for less than $20 a year. There are two points to consider when choosing your domain name one is branding and the other is keywords. If you wish to use your own name or the name of your business and market that as a brand then you would build your business around the name rather than around the product. For example when people hear the name Google they immediately associate it with the internet and a way to search for information they want. The other way is to use keywords associated with the type of business you wish to run. If your business was selling health products or information on health issues then the keywords that you would choose would have the words health or wellbeing in them and you could choose a domain name incorporating these words, which would help tremendously with getting listed on the search engines. This would be a big help if you are marketing in a particular niche. When deciding on the domain name, if you want to use keywords then the best thing to do is to write a list of all the possible keyword combination's associated with your niche and do a keyword search to Choose The Sex Of Your Baby Finally discover how to successfully Choose the Sex of your Baby. Page 1 Presented by Daniel Toriola help you decide on the best ones. Once that is done then choose a name around those words. By using this method, you are giving a very clear indication to anyone searching exactly what your business is all about. The simplest way to choose name is to do a domain name search. There are free sites that will give you the information and this will help you with the choice. Another important point is to get a website with a .com extension unless the website is aimed at a particular country then rather get one with an extension that is used only for that country. Choose a couple of domain to start as there is always the possibility that the one you have chosen is already taken. Have another choice also with your keywords in it, just in case. There is always the possibility that the domain name that you originally chose is for sale, but it is usually expensive to buy. It is far better to create a new one which will cost you a few dollars to register.

Page 2 Presented by Daniel Toriola Simple But Vital Tips In Choosing A Domain Name By Pamela Upshur In Web hosting and online business setup, domain name selection is the first hurdle to surmount. You cannot afford to go wrong with your domain name because it plays a very vital role in your online business success. It can even become one of your trademarks, a part of your brand. Your domain name has commercial value which you can apply patent to. Choose your domain name wisely; invest time and business knowhow on it alone. As far as letters, numbers, and hyphens, you can get creative with your domain name – just don’t place the hyphen at the start or at the end. You could not use special symbols and spaces in your domain name also. Excluding the domain extension (.com, .net, .org, etc.), you could have anything from 2 to 63 characters in your domain name, which is not case sensitive. To get you started, here are some useful tips you can follow to craft your business' online identity. 1. Use your company's known/registered name as your domain name. It’s easier for people to remember or find you online if your URL is your company name itself. Intel, Microsoft, Del, etc. are easy to find on the Web because they use their registered name, the name known to everybody, as their website URL. It’s a known fact that at least 90% of people who are not sure about the company’s website just type the company name in the address bar followed by .com. Thus, brings us to the next useful tip when formulating your online address. 2. Choose the .com extension for your URL. Since it's one of the first extension created for domain names, people are hotwired to type .com after a domain name on the address bar. You yourself know this all too well by now. For online business purposes, it's absurd to choose other extension if you can get the .com. However, there are instances wherein you can use other extension for your online business domain name also. For instance, if your range of business is country specific, you can choose the extension assigned to your country like .us, http://.co.uk, .au, etc. This is the best alternative after the .com extension. Moreover, you have to know that the .org extension is used for noncommercial websites. 3. Be a step ahead against your competitors by using your company's name as domain name. When you shall have developed your brand later, or you have a well developed brand to begin with, many of your competitors will ride on your success by closely imitating your company's name as their domain name. Don’t give them this luxury by using your own name in your URL itself. It’s better to be clever right from the get go than pursue intellectual or patent rights in the future. You might think that these tips are ordinary, but you don’t want to dismiss these if you want to succeed in your online business down to your domain name.
