We’re currently in the all important phase of renaming our business. We’re not quite ready for the big reveal, but we’d like to share some tips that can help you while choosing a domain name for your website.

Lots of our clients already have established businesses and come to us with a domain name already picked out. If you’re just getting started, here are a few things to consider:

• Keep it simple. A domain name that is obvious and says what the site is about will help increase traffic to your site.
• Have you found the perfect business name but the domain name is already taken? Don’t let domain name availability force you to decide against the best name.  Modifiers like these can help you work around domain name squatters, and they help communicate what your business does:

Get_____.com

Shop_____.com

ILove____.com

LetsGo_____.com

Enjoy_____.com

The same principles can be applied when choosing social media handles.

• Pay attention to how the name reads without capitalization to avoid mistakes like:

speedofart.com | Speed of Art

therapistfinder.com | Therapist Finder
