Domain Names and Longevity
It begins as an idea — a company name, a business venture, a personal project. You research available domain name options, choose the one you want, and finally register it. Or perhaps the perfect domain was in use before, and you register it after it completes the domain deletion cycle.
After going through the selection and registration process and then using the domain to brand your business, do you want to risk losing your domain?
Of course not.
Choosing a Domain Name - One of the First Stops for Your New Website
So, what is a domain name, or simply a domain? Well, the answer is also very simple: it`s your website`s name.
Let`s get straight to the point: you can`t name your website however you like. Actually, you can, but you won`t have any profits from it.
Search engines simply love when you have some of your main keywords in your website URL (Uniform Resource Locator), and you will get a higher ranking just for having some of them in your domain.
Its Raining ccTLDs
By now you’ve probably noticed the onslaught of unfamiliar domain name extensions popping up here and there. Like most domain name professionals, you’ve probably sat at your computer pondering whether or not you should kick out the extra cash to register some of these domain names… why?
Keywords! While droves of individuals place an extreme value on the domain names extension, I firmly believe that the extension has nothing to do with the success or failure of the domain name.
The Sub-Domain - An Affiliates Friend
It’s surprising, at least to me, the amount of Affiliates who aren’t aware of the value and flexibility that the ’sub-domain’ can give their promotional website activities. Set up in the right way, a single domain through a host who includes multiple ’sub-domains’ in their hosting package can fill ALL the online needs of even the busiest and most diversified Affiliate.
Know How DNS Works
Domain name Servers (DNS) are an important but invisible part of the internet, and form one of the largest databases on it. Each machine on an internet is assigned a unique address, called an IP address, which is 32 bit number and is expressed as 4 octets. The method user to represent these IP addresses is known as dotted decimal Notation”.
E-Business: Domain Names - Bad Faith
Ian McMillan registered the internet domain name TrivialPursuits.net and won the right to continue using it, after a challenge from Horn Abbot, the makers of the board game, failed to stop him using the domain name. The makers of the Trivial Pursuits board game failed to obtain the TrivialPursuits.net domain name from the person who said he registered the name to lament life’s loss of individual creativity.
