If you are a parent, you probably know how difficult naming your children can be. Your child’s name will have a life-time effect. The same goes for your newest baby – your website. Name it in a way that will match its character (isn’t it amazing how you can know what your baby’s character will be before it is even born?) and will make its life easier.

Why are you creating your website? If your goal is to make some or lots of cash, before you sell anything, first you will need people to come to your website. A good domain name will attract new prospects to your website. Finding prospects through search engines is great, because it is effective and absolutely free (unless you use paid advertising).

Once your potential customers find your website they won’t stay there forever. Whether they make a purchase or not ñ they eventually leave. Don’t you want them to come back? If your website’s name is easy to remember, they will be more likely to return. Increase the chances of their return even more by giving your website the same name as your domain. Surprisingly for some/many people instead of entering keywords into a search engine, simply enter them in the navigation bar with the ‘.com’ extension. This is why experienced internet marketers will give you advise like this:

* Use the .com extension. Most people automatically enter .com as they type a domain name.

* Make your domain name short and simple. If all the names you wish to have are already taken and consider buying a premium domain name (a domain name that has already been registered and is for sale). You will have to spend more than $9.99 but you might not have to invest much more into advertising.

* As mentioned before – your domain name should reflect the nature of your business. You donít want people to come to your website and be disappointed or feel cheated.

As you find domain names keep in mind what you want to accomplish with them. And remember ñ the more traffic your website gets, the more successful your business becomes.
