Tips for Selecting the Best Domain Name
Use the .COM extension
This is still the number one choice for the majority of online businesses. While, .NET, .ORG,.INFO,.BIZ, and .US are viable alternatives they are not as widely recognized as .COM. The .COM extension will immediately give you and your business more credibility. Also, because we are creatures of habit many people automatically include .COM when typing in almost any web address, so why not capitalize on human nature?
Keep it Short
Whenever possible your domain name should not be longer than 13-15 characters, numbers, or hyphens. It is much more difficult for the average person to remember longer variations of a web address.
Make it Memorable
You want your domain name to be easy to remember. Make it stick out in people's minds. Be creative. Be Unique.
Minimize Confusion
You should never lose a prospective customer because they misspelled your domain name, or they used the wrong extension. If you can afford it, register other variations of your domain name and have them redirect to your main site.
Be Descriptive
Your domain name should have something to do with your business. Make it descriptive of your site, your product offerings, or your service
