Domain names are online
addresses of a website. These names are human readable. Root domains have top
level extensions such as .com, .org, .net etc. The example of root domain is
.example.com & these domains are purchased from registrar. Subdomain is a
third level domain & part of root domain name. We can create subdomains
under any root domains. The following are examples:
http://www.example.com/ “www” is a subdomain
http://blog.example.com/ “blog” is a subdomain
http://example.com/ no subdomain
To pick a good domain name for a website is very difficult because best domain names already exist.

Company Name
For business website, the
domain name should be your company name. For personal website, domain name
should be your name. This is a way to promote your business or brand online. Your
clients know your company name & they expect that your domain name same as
company name. By using domain name you can reach millions of user. Domain name

contain relevant keyword to your business. Keyword rich domains are good in
order of ranking factor in search engine & good for your business. You
should research the keywords of niche & choose some most relevant keywords.

Name Memorable
Your domain name must
be easy to remember, short & easy to type in the browser. Your domain name
must be short & simple. You should avoid the domain names longer than 15
characters. Short domains are easy to share & easy to remember. If your
domain name is long then there are much chances of typing it wrong. Short
domain name is pretty & understandable.
Avoid
Hyphens
A good domain name
should be in plain text format & avoid numbers & hyphens. If you use
numbers & hyphens in domain name then typing errors may be higher. For
example, if you use a number such as 1 e.g. “1example.com”, some users would
assume the word version e.g. “oneexample.com”.
You should also avoid
hyphens because these can lead the typing errors. For example, if you use a
domain e.g. “hosting-example.com”, sounds like “hostingexample.com”. If needed
you can use hyphens but more than one hyphen should not be used in a domain
name.

level domain extensions are available like .com, .org, .net, .info etc. So which
extension should you use? Following is more about these extensions.

should be .com before any other extension. This stands for commercial. This
domain ranks easily & quickly in search engine. You should choose .com
domain if there is any possibility.

for “Network”. Networking & internet service provider companies mainly use
this extension. This is not easy to rank a .net domain; you will need more time
& more backlinks.
