Web Hosting Guide -> Web Hosting and Domain Names
Use your Domain Names wisely.
A Domain Name says a lot about you to your customers and website visitors. But did you also know it tells Search Engines and other computers about you aswell?
Picking the correct domain name is essential when designing and building a website. Find out how they tie in with our Web Hosting Packages and how you can make the best use of them.
All our hosting packages come with the option of domain names if required. It's important to understand the true value of domain names and what they can really do for you.
When you choose a domain name what should you be looking for?
Something short?
Something easy to remember?
Something descriptive?
Answer: All of the above.
A domain name tells your visitors what your website is about and what your business does. Ensuring you have a shorter and easy to remember domain name means your website visitors are more likely to remember how to get to your website and what they can find there.
What most people don't realize is that domain names also tell search engines a lot about your website. Some of the more popular search engines give a lot of weight (and in turn high rankings) to websites which have descriptive and useful domain name.
Hence, if your company is called Harold and Son and you produce widgets you may want to look at a domain name similar to buy-widgets.com. That way, when a user runs a search for "buy widgets" they are a lot more likely to see your website in the top 10 results.
