Domains Names And Web Design - Almost all domain...
(Page 3 of 6 )
Almost all domain registration services will offer free extras such as domain and email forwarding, if the company you are using doesn’t offer these basic add ons then say thank you and move on to one that does.
4. What is your name?
There is one domain name you should definitely register and that is yourname.com.
Why? Because branding yourself in your market is a brilliant way of letting people know not only who you are and what you do but also that you are very serious about it and take pride in your position. Think about it, would you want your name branded on something that wasn’t up to par, and that’s exactly how your customers are going to see it too “Oh, Denise has put her name to this so she must think it is a quality product/service”
And as long as it is a high quality item your name will become synonymous with quality in your field.
Warning: some domain registrars, upon closing your account due to spam complaints, missed payments or any other reason will retain the name that you purchased and assume ownership of it. Meaning that you will not be able to re-register it anywhere else and so will loose all the traffic that you may have spent months directing to that address. As with all things be sure to read the small print – it’s small for a reason.
