Tips For Choosing a Domain Name
Posted 22nd November 2009 at 01:06 PM by Sassee2
Deciding on a web site address means more than just adding a.com to your business name. Don't forget it's a key element of your website optimization. For starters that domain name may already be in use. If you're set on this choice then there are some ways you can attempt to find an owner of a domain name, and then make an offer to buy it from them. This is especially worthwhile if there is no actual website attached, and owners may be more willing to part with the domain cheaply.
There are alternatives including what extension is placed, or how you phrase your name - using dashes for example is one popular way to get around it. But you need to ensure your site is easily located and unnecessary information in the domain name can confuse customers and leave your site lost amongst the masses. This won't help your website seo.
It's also important to name each page properly in the URL. This is so that search engines can more easily direct searching potential customers to the relevant page of your website. While taking into account your tags, meta tags and other ways you've enhanced your searchable status, they will also check the domain name and complete URL for further clues.
Look at the way some of the biggest online companies have designed their URLs for different pages, and follow suit. You can also look into ways to ensure your main domain name is simple to remember, discover and read. If you do this you'll make your website more visible than may otherwise be the case. It also means visitors can get an understanding of your system quite easily and then type in the appropriate extended URL to get to specific web pages without heading via the home page.
