What if you had a good domain name that has all qualities in it? You won't have stress of ever regretting that you made a mistake when buying it and wanting to register a new one. It won't give you any troubles as you continue building and adding new projects on your website. In fact you will grow with it and become compatible with it wherever a need arises.
Here are some good traits you consider before buying your domain names:
No hyphen-Don't have a hyphen in your domain name. A void it. It is not easy for your surfers to remember it especially when typing on their browser or when recommending your website to their friends. Use it only as a last resort. Use it on these circumstances; when registering your domain name you find that it is already registered, you can register the same name by including a hyphen. A gain if you have more than one word you will have to include hyphen in between those words.
Popular extension-The type of extension also known as suffix is important for your website. Don't choose a wrong extension that surfers are not used to. It is a good idea to go for a dot com suffix since a high percentage of surfers are used to it.
Meaningful and descriptive-Your domain name should be meaningful. It should bear a meaningful label for your site. It should describe your website concept.
Unique-Come up with a domain name that is unique. It will identify your website as being that site only and no other.
Short-It should not have more characters including the suffix. Choose your domain name that is short. When you keep it short, it becomes easy for surfers to remember and type it in their browsers correctly without misspelling it.
Only Letters, Numbers, and Hyphen-It should only have letters, numbers or hyphens. It should not contain an underscore or other symbols. When including either a number or hyphen, make sure it's not at the beginning or at end of a domain name.
Keyword-It is such a good idea to include your website concept keyword in your domain name. This will help surfers to find your website easily on search engines.
Easily Remembered and Memorialized-Select a domain name that surfers will recall easily at any time and one they are able to memorize without any difficulty. Now that you have got the qualities, is it time to register your domain name? Relax! Not yet. There is something you ought to know or else you will go wrong. You should know which company to register your domain name with. You should also know whether you are registering it under private or public option. You should get each details and condition well.
Again you should know how domains are bought. The means of payment and the time it takes to expire and how you renew it. I don't want you to lose your domain name just because you forgot or rather did know that it has to be renewed the moment it expires.
