Domain Name Registration Tips

Published on 12/29/2009 by Wayne Foster
Here are a number of tips on things you should consider when registering your domain name:
 
1. If you are starting a new business, select a name that will help you with Business Directories. Most of these Directories list alphabetically so the closer you get to a name starting with 'A' the higher your placement will be in the listings. However, be aware that this does not apply to search engines.
 
2. Try to keep you domain name under 10 characters. The shorter your name is the easier it will be for people to type it correctly.
 
3. Try to choose a name that includes what you do. This will help with your search engine placement. For example, if your business is ‘Dog Washing' then a good domain to register would be www.dogwash.com.
 
4. Register your domain name for 2 years or more as this will show the search engines that you are serious about your business and they will take more notice of you and your placement in their listings.
 
5. Register other domain name options for your business such as .com, .net, .net.au etc. This will protect your brand online and will ensure that competitors cannot set up similar names to attract your business.
 
6. Make sure you register your domain name with someone you trust. Make sure your name and your business name is listed as the owner of the domain name that you are registering. This is critical and can save hours of crisis management down the track. Similarly choose a reputable domain name registration company when you register your domain name.
 
7. When you have your domain name registered you will then need to find a host for your domain name, emails and/or website. Try and choose a hosting company that has its servers situated locally, as this in general will make your website faster to access and any communication between you and the host will be easier.
 
8. As a minimum, subscribe to email box hosting so that you can have professional email addresses, for example yourname@yourdomainname.com. This will also protect you if you ever need to change your Internet Service Provider as you will always be able to keep your domain name email address.
