Picking a domain name for your website
Posted by JASON FETROW on June 18, 2009
Step 1- When choosing a domain name ( a name for your website- ours is www.myatlantaleasepurchase.com) Try to choose a phrase or part of a phrase that people use when they search for what you are selling. A good way to identify this is to search for key words using google keywords. Here is the link. https://adwords.google.com/select/KeywordToolExternal
Step 3-There is a spot where you can enter an actual competitor link and hit search. This will allow you to check the entire site for the most searched keywords.
Step 4-Then pick the most common key word (the ones that have the highest search rate) and integrate it into you domain name.
Step 5- Finally, I recommend going to www.godaddy.com to purchase your domain. I have had a great experience with them as their customer service department is AWESOME! They have people answering the phones and can answer any question that you may have with setting up your site. Remember, Buying your domain and hosting a website are two different items.
