1. Is your website domain going to be for seo or Branding Purposes?

Now that you are ready to start you website you will need a great domain name that you will use to promote and brand your website. If you are building your website for the search engines primarily you will want to put your primary keyword phrase in the domain so Google and other search engines will more easily be able to identify and index your website for your keyword. If your primary keyword phrase has more than one word in it, separate each word in the URL with a dash. (Ex. www.keyword-phrase.com)

When branding your website you will want to choose a URL that is easily remembered by people and isn’t very long so it’s simple to type into the browser and spell correctly or tell their friends and others interested in your website with ease.

2. What are the best domain extension(s) to choose for your website URL?

When searching for your new domain you want to take into consideration the extension you wish to choose for your website URL. The best extensions are .com, .net, .org, and if they are not available look for your country level domain, like .ca for Canada, .us for USA, .it for Italy, .in for India etc.. If you are building a video website try .tv or if you are creating a mobile website specifically for cell phones and smart phones you will want to get a .mobi domain extension.

IMPORTANT NOTE: It’s a smart idea to grab all the domain extensions available so your competition doesn’t grab them instead and try to sell them back to your for much higher cost or setup a site on them that can hurt your brand name.

3. Finding a good domain register with excellent support!

When looking for a domain register to purchase your domain from, choose one that provides FAQ’s, a help centre and 24/7 email and phone support so you can get your questions or concerns answered at anytime night or day.

4. What is the cost of the domain name?

Depending on the domain register and URL extension you choose will determine the cost of the domain. Typically a .com domain can average about $9.99 and up but some domain registration sites give special prices for .com with a non-domain purchase which is good to look for too. A .mobi can be about $14.99, .asia is about $19.99, but the cheapest domains to buy are normally .info and run about $1.99 for the first year, which is good, but .info are not the best extensions to choose from especially if you are want to brand your website.

With all the mentioned bonuses it’s over $141 USD with a purchase of a domain which is great! So keep an eye out for those.
