Choosing a domain name is very important before you start building a site. The domain name will be a unique feature of your site. Indeed, to have a domain that contains keywords for a google search is very difficult today. Some even buy domains for resale, of course the price is quite expensive.
The most widely used top level domain is .com. Buying .com is very easy, because there are no requirements. and of course the price is cheap. There are many top level domains that you can choose according to your needs such as: .net, .org, .bz, .ac.id, .id, .web.id (for Indonesian domains).
Here are some things you need to pay attention to when choosing a domain:
1. Use the domain name as a tool for branding. People will say the domain name more than the company name.
2. Short and easy to remember. This will help visitors when they are going to search for something on the internet.
3. Choose the right top level domain. .com is the most popular, but you can choose a local top level domain if your site is in Indonesian.
4. Using your own name/business. A domain name is a presentation of a business activity or a presentation of yourself.
5. Creativity in combining words. It must be very difficult to find a domain with two words at this time, you have to be more creative.
6. Avoid using hyphens as domain names. The most used hyphen is “-“, avoid it.
7. Do not let your domain expire. The longer the expiration date of a domain, the better.
You’ve probably heard of subdomains, addon domains and domain parkers. These three types of domains are quite important to know, especially by webmasters.
• A subdomain is an address and is part of the main site (main domain). If you have a shopping site, then want to create a forum related to your shopping site. Of course you do not need to buy a domain name again is not it. Simply by creating forum.namadomain.com.
• Addon domain is a website outside of your main site, and unique or different from the main site. When you buy a domain of course you also have to have hosting. If you have another domain and hosting for which you still have enough space, you can add another domain. You can set it in cpanel, make sure the hosting you choose can add an addon domain.
• Parker’s domain is not a unique website. This means that in a hosting you can have more than one domain and all of them point to the root folder. Or shorter can be interpreted as a website alias. For example, if you have a shopping website, you can use the shopping1.com and shopping2.com domains where both access the same files on the hosting.
