Techniques to avoid - Choose a domain name

Bookmark and Share
The first thing to do before you can create a blog, before writing the contents of the murderess to the masses at your door, before he can get rich by selling information products is to choose a domain name. The domain is the address. See a map of his post and, well, describing your business or niche.

As more people begin to create an online store, making it increasingly difficult to find good domain names, which causes people to reach another way to get the domain you want. But these tricks is the realm of good or bad?

. Com, Org. Net

The city where I live, the name of the person responsible for the roads are terribly uninventive. The old is good enough, apparently, to Calle 28, Calle 36, Calle 48, and the like. The problem is that we also have the 36th Avenue and 48th Avenue so every time you refer to someone's home or business in one of these roads, we must be careful to explain exactly what you mean.

I see a lot of new internet marketers, who, when they find their idealdomain.com not available, an emotion or idealdomain.net idealdomain.org grab, you do not know, "it is good the.org or.net for SEO?"

In reality, the domain name is of little value when it comes to SEO, but more on that later. What are these inexperienced operators should be concerned with potential readers to send in the wrong house in the neighborhood. And that's exactly what they're doing, because most Internet users entering the URL address bar of your favorite browser add.com automatically at the end. As traffic is landing in the competition.

Moral of the story? The.com buy or not buy anything. a.com research can live with, instead of choosing a.org I love you, because it is not worth the loss of the kind of traffic only for a good / smart / domain keyword density.

Dash's and Don'ts

Just do not. Never use hyphens in domain name.

Imagine, if you start a lot 'of business, and is doing well, but wants to expand, get more traffic. It was decided to try pod casting, video or marketing. In his first pod cast to say "Welcome to Great Gardening Tips. I'm your host, gardener Ginny. You can find our show notes at the top edge of a board of horticultural dot com". It looks much worse than it looks, right?

Never buy this domain name, a dash, if you plan never to speak aloud the name. And yet, you'll lose the type of traffic because people do not write scripts Valley more than they remember your domain name is.

You need to use scripts to get good keywords

You do not have keywords in your domain name.

No, I said. Let the debate rage. (Seriously, leave a comment. I'd love to hear from you because you should have keywords in your domain name.)

Here's the thing. If you happen to have a domain that is good for your keywords then you can get some benefit from SEO, but not directly to the Google gods. You can use, because if people link to the site, they tend to use the name of the site. So, if your domain is dogtrainingtips.com people more often link to their pages in anchor "of dog training tips" of the text, which is a good keyword phrase.

My advice? Use keywords if you can, but do not worry if you can.

Avoid the use of a smart and odd numbers spell

This is a business next to me, which provides food to local restaurants. Types of services. I use them when I can not remember the name of the domain. They are advertised on billboards, so I've seen a thousand times, but I do not remember, because it is a mixture of numbers and acronyms that someone thought was smart. gr8dinner.com or something.

Think about it. I'm an Internet Marketer. I live on the Internet. My Google-fu is strong. Domain name brainstorming for fun. If I can not remember your domain name, I promise you that no one remembers him well. It would be better served with a command of the old and boring, which is smart, but hard to remember.

The same applies to the substitution tag, x, sc, or any other trick to phonetics. Instead of having to remember - I'm sure the intent - they just make it harder for people to find.

Now I know that everyone out there complaining that all the domain names have been taken well and nothing remains but the mad dashes, and the number of combinations. It is not true. It may take a little 'harder to find good.com couple of years ago, but there is still a decent domain name to be had. You just need a little 'patience.
