Domain Registration
One of the first steps you should take in order to create
your online appearance is to choose a domain name for your
website. The domain name will represent you, your hobby or
business and will give your website a memorable name, so
your visitors will be able to find and remember it easily.
The domain name itself is an alphanumeric unique name
that identifies individual web sites on the Internet. The
domain can be of any length up to 67 characters, which
includes the 26 letters of the English alphabet, numbers
0-9, and hyphens (-).The domain name cannot begin or end
with a hyphen but, can contain one or more hyphens.
Try to register a domain which contains a popular keyword
applicable for your industry. This will help your customers
remember your domain name better.
Don't register a domain containing the digit "0" in it,
unless it is going to be part of a recognizable word (like
1000 or 2000). This is because the digit "0" is often
confused with the vowel "O".
Try to avoid using domains that contain "2" for "to", "4"
for "four", "u" for "you". Your customers will easily get
confused. However, if you must register such a domain,
register the expanded form of the domain as well, i.e. if
you are registering only4you.com also you can register
onlyforyou.com.
