Domain FAQ
Picking domain name:
Picking the RIGHT domain for your business idea is crucial for success. Typically new business owners hurry to select a domain name for their businesses just to realize that they have actually made the incorrect selection. If you pick the incorrect domain, after that it can be a headache to switch over later on without injuring your brand and search rankings.
When it comes to choosing new domain names for your business, it can be quite overwhelming especially to beginners. On this page, we have outlined some guidelines to help you choose a new domain name.
Only choose .com domains
.com is the most well-known domain name extension in the world. This is why most smart phone’s keyboards have a built-in .com button.
While it can be tempting to choose one of the newer extensions like .photography, .blog, .club, etc, we recommend all business owners to always choose a .com domain name.
The biggest reason is that your users are conditioned to type .com at the end of every website. For example, if your website was nelly.photography, and your users typed in nellyphotography.com, then they might end up on an error page or worst your competitor’s website.
It’s wise to avoid the risk and choose a .com domain name
Use keywords in your domain
Keywords play a huge role in search engine rankings. If you want your website to rank higher in Google, then having a keyword in the domain name can be very helpful.
Make it easy to pronounce and spell
One of the biggest reasons for lost traffic is typos. When choosing a domain name, it’s extremely important that your website name is easy to spell and pronounce.
This way if you’re ever in a public place without a business card, then you can easily share your website and know that the other person will be able to find it.
Keep it short
Following the same reasoning as #3, it’s generally a good idea to keep your domain name short (ideally under 15 characters).
Longer domain names are hard to remember, and they are also prone for more typos.
Make it brandable
With millions of websites on the internet, you want to make sure that your domain name is unique and brandable so that it stands out in your readers’ minds.
You should look at other business websites in your industry to see what kind of names they’re using. This will give you an idea of what’s acceptable, and it will also prevent you from accidentally using a trademark domain name.
Brandable domains are short, catchy, and easy to pronounce. Think reloadhost.com or reloadsite.com.
Choosing a brandable domain also makes it easy when it comes to finding available social media usernames.
Avoid Hyphens at all cost
While it can be tempting to choose a domain name with a hyphen just because it has your preferred keywords, we always recommend avoiding hyphens at all cost.
Hyphens can be a sign of spam domains, and you don’t want your business to be associated with that.
Hyphenated domains are also prone to more typos. Often your users will forget to add the hyphen and end up on your competitor’s website.
Avoid Double Letters
Another thing we advise our clients is to avoid domain names with doubled letters because it increases your chances of losing traffic to typos.
For example, a domain like businesssetup.com will be more prone to typos and result in lost traffic.
