The most important goal when choosing your domain name is to seduce visitors to have the desire to enter them in their browsers. It is like how book covers are to novels.
However, being unreasonably creative doesn’t make for a good domain name either. Why? It’s because if a domain name is creative but not keyword enhanced, search engine bots won’t be able to index it in search engine listings. So, basically, your domain name must be both catchy yet search engine optimized.
This article will inform you on how you can achieve both objectives. First, you will need to find a search engine friendly keyword that can be integrated into your domain name. You can use keyword analyzer to find latest popular keyword. These can be found fairly easily with a basic search engine query.
With a keyword analyzer, enter in a keyword that best summarizes the purpose of your website. The keyword analyzer will return different versions of this keyword. From the list, choose one that best fit the nature of your website. This is because when it comes to search engine optimization, more specific keywords are better.
Now you can begin selecting your actual domain name. Almost all domain name companies will allow you to see whether or not your domain name is available. If it is not available, it will return a list of recommended domain names. This could help you greatly when it comes to choosing your domain name.
If your keyword as a domain name is not available, consider the suggestions the domain name company gives. If the main keyword is still included in these suggestions and it ends with .com, consider it. Otherwise, you will have to be more creative.
Here’s how you can get more creative yet search engine optimized: You can use ‘filler’ words, numbers or phrases within your domain name and still include your selected keyword. Fillers such as ‘a,”an’ or ‘the’ could be used as well as placing number fillers at the end of a phrase.
With fillers incorporated within your domain name, your domain name can still have a good chance at getting indexed by search engines. The search engines tend to pay less attention to fillers.
What if you looked at suggestions and tried using fillers and you still couldn’t get .com? When a keyword is just that popular and you couldn’t find .com, you should consider using other extensions such as .net, .biz, and .org. Although not as popular as .com, they still get noticed and is increasing in numbers.
Furthermore, if you don’t mind international or local-based marketing, you can also consider using country or state-based extensions. It’s better to rank in top ten of France’s version of Google than to be number 100 or worse in America’s version of Google.
