What To Remember When You Purchase Domains

Keep It Short

While there is no minimum length for domain registration, we recommend buying a domain name that’s under three words long. Longer website names are harder to read and won’t stand out.

Less Is More

Avoid hyphens, numbers, slang, and easily misspelled words in your domains. Complex elements make website names much harder to reach and remember.

Include Your Brand Name

A great address for your website should include your brand or the target keywords for your niche. A search result with a keyword in your site URL will offer better brand recognition and increase your website’s traffic.

Domain Availability Search

Start by doing a domain search to check if a domain name is available. Remember to also check it has not been trademarked.

Think Locally

While it’s ideal to purchase a website name with .com, due to their popularity, a .com TLD can often be unavailable. Consider registering a country-specific extension like .co.uk, .us, or .pk if you target a particular country.
