Tips from Tuesday,
March 10, 2009
The Small Business tips today will be cover naming your
website and securing the domain.
- When
choosing a domain name (your website address) consider something memorial
and recognizable, such as YourCompanyName.com.
- Try to
keep your domain name to less than 20 characters. Have a few different options
in mind when you start out.
- Don't
use underscores in your domain name or spelling that is
"creative". That will make you more difficult to remember and
find.
- A
domain name should cost ~ $10/year. Don't get sold for more Try
http://godaddy.com for good prices; domain hosting as well.
Daily Overview: When getting a domain name use your company
name, keep it short & save creativity for content. $10/year = your name!
