But aren't all the good domain names gone you say?
It's true that most short or one-word or generic names are
taken up, BUT you can still win at the domain name game by
following these simple steps...
Here are the 5 super easy secrets to a winning domain name
anytime!
== BRANDING ==
Every business needs to be branded, and that does not
exclude your online business!
Now what's branding in simple terms?
It's an identity that you want your customers to remember
you by, and the best way to do that online is by your
domain name!
For instance, your business branding may be "Best Quality
Service", so why not use that as your domain name,
BestQualityService.com if it's still available for
registration?
This is a great way of creating a CONSISTENT branding and
identity!
== PHRASING ==
How about using familiar or unique phrases as your domain
name? This can help differentiate your site and heighten
the recall factor.
You can think up many catch-phrases for domain branding,
how about "CowJumpsOverTheMoon", "MakeLoveNotWar",
"SaleOfTheCentury", etc?
But it's important that the phrases you use is aligned to
your business, you wouldn't want to use a domain like
CheapAndGood.com when you're selling high end premium
products, it just doesn't gel!
== KEYWORDING ==
An important and smart approach to selecting domain names
used by many marketers is to create the domain based on
rich keywords relating to their businesses. The reason
behind this lies in the fact that it helps enhance search
engine rankings, especially pay-per-click listings which is
essentially a bidding on top keywords.
As an example, if your site deals with golf improvement,
you may want to identify your main keywords and come up
with a domain like "improve-golf-lower-scores.com"?
My personal example is my ezine site at
http://www.Marketing-Make-Money.com which utilised the
keywords 'Marketing' and 'Make Money'.
== EXPIRED AND EXPIRING ==
A wonderful method of grabbing quality domain names is by
registering domains that had expired or will be expiring!
Thousands upon thousands of domains are expiring every
other day and getting a good one is real possible
Try this site http://www.DeletedDomains.com to source for
such domains, I grabbed http://www.allwebmarketing.com from their list the last time I did a search!
== BUYING ==
This option is a little more costly and risky but you'll
have a better chance at finding a domain that you really
want.
There're three main ways to go about this :
1. Email the webmaster of the existing domain about your
interest and intention
2. Bidding and buying at domain auction, sale sites like
http://www.Afternic.com or
3. Typing in the name you need and you may land on a 'for
sale' page
Here are also Three domain registrars that charge less than
$10 for each domain name registered through them (with no
hidden charges).
I've personally used and tested them with my own domain
names and they've proven themselves to be reliable and
provide quality services.
Why spend more when you can save more?!
