Choosing A Domain Name
--About Domain Names--
Choosing a domain name for
your web site is a major step for any individual or organization. You need
domain names that are sticky, short, meaningful, easy to remember and at
the roll of your tongue!
It is very easy to choose
a domain name but difficult to find a good name, simply because of the
fact that most of the good domain names are taken up by organisations.
These domain name organisations take up hundreds of thousands of domain
names and treat them as investments. It is not as easy to choose a good
domain name. Sometimes, even web professionals spend hours at their
computers to find good domain names!
Domain name registrations
are cheap to maintain and subscriptions typically last a year. The
subscriptions are renewable and paid to registrars by the design
companies.
The most common domain
names end with .com, .net, etc. Country specific domain names will end
with com.au, co.uk, .co.jp, etc. For organisations, domain names will end
with .org or be country specific- .org.au, .org.uk, etc.
