The 11 Best Tips to Help You Choose the Best Domain Name | NiceNIC.NET

6. Don't Use Double Letters

If you use double letters in your domain name, you're actually going to lose traffic due to typos. Doubled letters aren't only hard to read, but they are also difficult to type correctly. Hence, you should try to avoid using the same letter back to back in your domain name to make it easily typeable.

 

Besides confusing it with a similar domain that might belong to a competitor, people will have to spend more time remembering the correct spelling.

 

Of course, there are some exceptions to this advice. If you already have an established brand name with a double letter, you should follow the same spelling in your domain.

 

7. Check Domain History

This point is particularly crucial if you have chosen a domain name that already exists. Occasionally, your preferred domain name is already in use, and you're all excited to know that it's up for sale. Before getting elated, check the domain history.

 

Even a seemingly harmless domain name can have a controversial history. Wayback Machine is the most widely used domain history checker that can take you back to the past and show how a website used to look on a particular date.

 

Before buying an existing domain name, go through the domain's history for every available month to find if anything shady was going on there.

 

8. Target Your Business and Locality

Not every business has to be globally focused. You can also achieve growth by targeting a particular locality or country. To do so, you can get a domain name that contains a localized web address extension.

 

For instance, to get a higher ranking in the search engines of France, you may want to get a .fr extension in your domain name. A geographic domain extension will also help you achieve trustworthiness among the local users.

 

9. Focus on Branding

Consider the domain name as a branding opportunity for your business. With the right kind of domain name, you can increase brand recognition. So, always go for brandable domain names over generic ones.

 

Since a generic name is usually keyword-focused, it gets difficult to distinguish your brand from others with that domain. On the contrary, a brandable domain name stands out in the crowd.

 

You can use existing words and use them creatively to get a unique name, or you may come up with a new word or phrase.

 

10. Always Think Long-Term

Never view your business from a short-term prospect. While it's wise to choose a domain name that reflects your industry, don't be too specific not to leave any scope for growth.

 

If you use a flexible domain name from the start, you don't have to move to a new domain even when you change your business. By choosing a smart domain name, you should keep enough room for upscaling or expanding your business.

 

11. Purchase Multiple Domains if Possible

Once you have found the perfect domain name for your business website, you can also buy the domain name with all the available TLDs. This action will save you from a tricky competitor from owning a website that contains your domain name but a different extension.

 

After purchasing, redirect them to your primary domain. If possible, you should consider buying common misspellings of your domain name.

 

Choose the Domain Name Wisely

The biggest problem with getting a domain name is the perfect name for your website may not be available. In that situation, you may need to tweak the name while keeping its business value.

 

Follow the tips mentioned here while picking up a name for your domain. It's always good to have alternative domain names ready before domain registration.
