Choosing a domain name for a website is one of the vital steps you have to make when developing a website. Just imagine, thousands of new domain names are registered every day. So, finding a website domain name takes a lot of time and patience. Let’s go a little deeper into the subject of domain names and outline a few tips on how to choose domain name and what to keep in mind when selecting the domain.

What is a website domain name

The domain name is a unique alphanumeric name consisting of English letters, numbers 0-9, and hyphens (-). A domain name can be up to 60 characters, but, we recommend to avoid choosing long domains and get a domain name length to be less than 25 characters. Shorter domain names are easy to remember, easy to type and easy to promote.

Every domain name has a suffix or extension. The extension indicates which type of organization or country it belongs to. Most common domain name suffixes are: .com – commercial business .biz – business .org – organizations .gov – government agencies .net – network organizations .info – informational.

Domain name keywords

To develop the right domain name, select the keywords which are short, easy to remember and relevant to the website topic.

Avoid long domain names

A domain name length can be up to 60 characters. But, we recommend it to be less than 25 characters because shorter domain names are easy to type, hard to misspell, easy to remember and promote.

No hard-to-spell words

Avoid using hard to spell and hard to remember words. The website domain name should be easy for your website users to remember and type.

Domain name marketability

When choosing a domain name for a business project and/or e-commerce website, remember about its commercial attractiveness. For example, imagine your domain name in a commercial and think of how it will look there.

Domain name availability

Check domain name availability to avoid legal issues. Avoid domain names that are similar to existing ones.
