Further, we have explained some simple tips to help you find the best domain name for your business.
1. Keep It Short and Easy to Remember
The first tip is to keep the name short and memorable. We cannot emphasize how important it is to have a domain name that customers don’t forget. While picking the domain name, make sure:
- The name is under 15 characters.
- The spelling isn’t complex.
- Don’t use short forms like “R” instead of “are.”
For example, facebook.com is very memorable because they’re two separate words merged together to make one word. You always want a name like that!
2. Don’t Use Symbols and Numbers
It’s very common for people to mistype domain names and end up on completely different websites; sometimes, they even stop looking for the website because they can’t seem to find the right spelling with symbols and numbers.
Avoid using symbols and numbers so that users don’t have to remember complicated names. Domain names without symbols and numbers are also mobile-friendly because users don’t have to switch between keyboards.
3. Use Powerful SEO Keywords
Try to incorporate SEO keywords in your domain name because those indicate
Google to help users land on your website. For example, if you sell kids’ clothing, then try to use kids’ clothing or even both in the domain name.
However, don’t use more than two keywords in your name because you don’t want your website to seem spammy or a scam.
4. Pick A Scalable Name
Now, as you pick a domain name, make sure to think about the growth of your business as well. Ensure that you choose a name that will still cater to your business even if you scale. For example, if your current business is women’s clothing, then there is always a chance for you to start selling men’s and kid’s clothing.
For this purpose, pick a suitable and scalable domain name from the get-go so that you don’t have to end up buying or changing your domain name later on.
You can change your domain name, but it is advised not to do so if your traffic is great and customers remember you.
5. Check Domain Renewal Fee
Some service providers charge a very nominal fee in the beginning, but they charge a hefty amount when it’s time to pay a renewal fee. Make sure to pick a service provider who doesn’t cost you fortune.
Pro Tip: Ask for all their charges before hiring them so that you don’t have to pay a hefty amount later on.
