Register Your Domain Name

What Name ? Not Sure ? No Need To Rush.

There are many places you can register your domain name. But choosing the right domain name is the real task. If you can include your best keyword, the one you build your Home Page around, and explain your business at the same time, you are way ahead of the game.

Do Your Research First

Some web site building companies suggest you register your domain name first, choose your template, and then start to build. But build what ? It is important to well understand your site direction and content before you register your domain name.

Register Multiple Names and Re-direct

You might also consider registering similar names and re-directing them to your site. This just means that people finding your secondary names will be automatically directed to the main site. This covers a few more bases and protects you from other business' registering similar names to poach your customers.

Choose Your Web Host First

Another reason not to rush ahead with excitement before you do your research and register your domain name is it can take up to six weeks to move your domain name. If you register your name with the first solution you find, and then do your site research which may also include a template design and a hosting solution, you may end up with a long wait before you can go online.

When You Are Ready - Don't Procrastinate

Be sure to register your domain name as soon as you have decided on the best solutions though. You may be disheartened if you go back to register a name you were pondering, and find it registered two days later. When you are ready to register, you will find a list of places to both check the availability, and complete the process here. Remember your chosen web host may offer this service, and in that case, you will not have to transfer it.
