It has been and will remain to be a huge issue in trying to obtain a quality domain name. There are many great domain names that are only parked with no web page. Have you ever been to Ebay and viewed some of the domain names being sold? I saw one listed for 20 million, yes 20 million dollars. A domain name is only worth what the buyer is willing to pay.
The first domain name I purchased was in 1995 and today it still a strong content driven site based on fishing in New York.
What’s the most important things in a domain name?
There are 3 significant things you should consider before purchasing a domain name.
1. Easy to remember. This is a must and the most important.
2. Short, less than 15 characters. Don’t buy a name that is too long. A bad example is www.thewarcraftplayersexchange.com. Try this instead www.thewarcraftpe.com. Short and easy to remember.
3. Relevant. Always try to make sure that your domain name has the main keyword that relates to your web sites identity.
I purchase my domains with GoDaddy.com and have been since their inception. The pricing is the best, and support as never been an issue. Godaddy has a lot of cool features for webmasters and site owners.
One of the best features about Godaddy.com when searching for a domain name that’s not available, is that Godaddy will provide a list of names that are close to the one your looking for.
Happy domain name hunting!
