There’s a difference of opinion on the domain name and on every topic concerning it. I’m going on my experience and what I’ve read and researched on them.

Naturally, how to choose the domain name is very important and not to be taken lightly. I didn’t know this when I chose my first domain name so I messed it up. It’s vital that you take time to do your research properly and choose wisely.

The domain name should have the title in it or title in the domain name, however you want to put it. In addition, it should be what your site is about and keyword rich as well for best search engine optimization possible. This will help you get targeted keyword searched traffic which is the best kind.

Also, the domain name should be short, simple, easy to spell and easy to pronounce so that people can remember it. You may need to get creative since most of the great domain names are taken. However, if you take your time and focus you will come up with a choice that best describes your site or blog.

Now, for the controversial coms, orgs, nets and all the other top level domains out there. I have used only coms and orgs most say to go with the .com if you can get it. And to use the .org with health or educational sites. I don’t think that one out performs the other as far as ranking a site higher. It is advised to stay away from the biz and the info.

Just a quick mention of using a subdomain. I do have one so I know a little about it. They do not seem to rank as fast as a regular one, but if you’re short on cash they work. And of course, you can’t resell them like the others either.

And yet another controversy, the domain name with the hyphen in it. Some people like them and some don’t. I can see where it could make it more readable in some cases and if the one you want isn’t available it may be the next best thing. Keep in mind they are harder to type and lazy folks might not do it.

When you choose the domain name keep these things in mind. I believe the major concerns are mentioned and if I come across anything else I will add it in later or if you have any questions feel free to ask. If I don’t know then I will ask Amy (my coach) or some other person more qualified than myself.
