This section will explain how to choose a great domain name, as well as where to search for an available domain and to register the domain. A typical unregistered domain name ending with a “.com” will cost $15 per year. This fee is called the domain registration annual fee.
Here are several useful hints when choosing your domain name:
- When choosing for a business, it’s best to stick with the familiar “.com” domain. Generally, clients will search for a domain ending with a dot.com, before looking up the .NET, or .ORG domains. However, if you want to create a domain for clients primarily outside the United States, you have the option to select country specific “Top Level Domains (TLD)” like .AU for Australia, .UK for the United Kingdom, etc.
- Find a domain name that is as short as possible
- Avoid having hyphens, or replacing letters with digits (the letter O, replaced with the digit zero), as this may lead your clients to another site instead.
- Choose an intuitive domain name – domains like Careerbuilder.com tells clients what the site does, instead of Monster.com – which will require more branding, not impossible.
- Avoid copyright infringements.
