Choosing a Domain Name Kenya Print

  • 1

So, you have finally decided to launch your online business. What you need is a solid website, filled with relevant information about your products and services. To get a high flow of clients, you need to make sure you have a good domain name. The right name for your website should hold your entire company. To select the domain name suitable for your company, here are some of the pointers you have to remember:

Be unique

It is an absolute disaster when guests mistake your site for a popular one, owned by another entrepreneur. Never choose a domain name that's the misspelled, plural form, or hyphenated form of another domain name.

Play with your top 5 keywords

Think of your company and then come up with five words, which are related to your business. You can pair them up and eventually get a good pairing.

Think of a short name

Domain names should be short. This allows your website to have more characters in your URL. Short domain names also fit in print ads and business cards better.

Stay away from numbers and hyphens

It is easier to type or spell domain names if they do not have hyphens or numbers. They also prevent misspells and confusion. Also, if ever you need to share the domain name verbally, it can be difficult to say the hyphens and the numbers. The one who wants it might lose interest in your site if they find it too tedious to remember.

Make sure it's easy to type

Avoid the letters "p", "q", "c", and "x" in your domain name. You should stick to the common letters, which make typing and remembering easy for any guest or potential client.

It should summarize your business

When guests see your domain name, they should get an idea of what you provide. They should not try to figure you out on their own anymore. Once they see your domain name, they should automatically know what your business is all about.

Make sure it's catchy

When your domain name is catchy, anyone can easily search it anywhere, at any time. Those who are asked for your domain name won't have to check the spelling twice anymore, just to answer correctly. If your domain name is catchy, you can be sure of more visitors and more potential buyers. People usually forget complicated domain names. This is not good for business at all.

Be a brand

You can easily make a brand out of your domain name. As you know, brands are easy to remember and can be associated easily with the products or services you offer. You can be a household name, if you choose your domain name right.

Remember the copyright
