Choosing a domain name:
This is arguably the hardest phase of conceptualization for a web design project and is the first opportunity for the web design team to interact with clients. Here are some things to keep in mind when choosing a domain name for a web site:
- Your domain name is the first impression
- Keep it on the topic of what the web site it about
- Keep the name as short as possible
- Use your company, product, industry, or trademark name
- Does it "explain" the purpose of your web site?
- Is the domain name easy to remember?
- Can the spelling be confused? (such as 2, to, two, too)
- Most importantly: keep it as simple as possible
- And remember we pay the first year!
Some sites may utilize multiple domain names - especially where SEO targeting is concerned. |
