Do You Need Help on Choosing the Right Domain Names?
The most important goal when choosing your domain name is to seduce visitors to have the desire to enter them in their browsers. It is like how book covers are to novels.
Being overly creative with domain names, however, does not mean that you’ve chosen a good domain name either. Your creativeness may be appealing to you, but search engine bots won’t be able to index it in search engine listings. Thus, when choosing domain names you want your domain name to be both catchy yet search engine optimized using a specific keyword.
Before choosing your domain name, you want to do some research on finding a search engine keyword that can be incorporated into your domain name. A keyword analyzer can assist you in this task. These can be found easily with a basic search engine query.
When you find one, enter in a keyword that best describes the purpose of your website. It will then return different versions of this keyword. Choose one that fits more within the nature of your website. This is because when it comes to search engine optimization, more specific keywords are better since they are less likely to be used by other webmasters.
Now you can begin selecting your actual domain name. Almost all domain name companies will allow you to see whether or not your domain name is available. If it is not available, it will return a list of recommended domain names. This could help you greatly when it comes to choosing your domain name.
If your keyword is not available as a domain name, take a look at the suggested domain names the domain name companies give you. If the main keyword is included in the suggested domain names and it ends with .com, consider taking it. Otherwise, you will have to be more creative.
Here’s how you can get more creative yet search engine optimized: You can use ‘filler’ words, numbers or phrases within your domain name and still include your selected keyword. Fillers such as ‘a,”an’ or ‘the’ could be used as well as placing number fillers at the end of a phrase.
Search engines tend to not look at these words, so you still have a good shot at getting indexed while having a domain name that is attractive.
But what if you couldn’t get .com using your specific keyword? Well, sometimes it is better to stick with lesser-used extension because the keyword is just so popular. Extensions that still get noticed include .net, .biz and .org.
Furthermore, if you don’t mind international or local-based marketing, you can also consider using country or state-based extensions. It’s better to rank in top ten of France’s version of Google than to be number 100 or worse in America’s version of Google.
