How do novices master domain name registration? What are the techniques?

Domain name is the first step to the success of a website. Only easy-to-remember and distinctive domain names can stand out from countless competitors. So to do this, we need to know, or pay attention to what?

First, it is best to use an independent domain name: I believe that many webmasters and enterprises are aware of the need for independent domain names. In the past few years, there have been a lot of free space and second-level domain names, but now many services no longer exist, and it is not conducive to user memory, so now few individual webmasters and enterprises choose this free URL. In addition, there is also the risk of using other people's websites. If there is a problem with the service provider, the traffic and brand that have been hard-earned will be destroyed. Therefore, it is recommended that individual webmasters and enterprises register their own independent domain names.

Secondly, it is best to be short and easy to remember: many domain names are in the form of English letters and numbers, and some webmasters and enterprises like to use English words and company abbreviations as domain names. No matter which method you choose, you should follow the principle of being short and easy to remember. Especially for domain names with English words, since many domestic users have difficulty remembering less commonly used English words, Chinese websites are still the first choice for pinyin. Now many users register in order to give full play to their imagination, and embedded numbers, double pinyin, pure numbers, etc. are widely used. There are also some companies whose names are special pinyin combinations, so it is natural to form a brand, which is also helpful for future promotion. At the same time, the domain name should not exceed 7 letters. It is not easy to remember if it is too long.

Third, be careful not to use symbols: We also often use hyphenated domain names, because their domain names are already registered, so they use hyphens to register. Such domain names often give people an unprofessional impression. If the domain name is short, it will be better. If it is a few words plus a hyphen, it will not only be difficult for users to remember, but also not conducive to the company brand.

Fourth, the meaning of the domain name should not be too far-fetched: Some domain names can be understood literally. The basic meaning, but some domain names cannot be associated with specific meanings, but some users are too far-fetched when registering. A certain meaning, in fact, they can only understand it, and many users do not know what the domain name represents. It is usually not difficult for us to find that many large companies and big brands often only have the literal meaning of the required domain name, but may be homophonic, such as Baidu, Google, Vancl, Deng's, at least from the beginning we don't know what it means, and they are all built according to their own brand. Slowly accumulate and promote.

Fifth, com is the best: There are many types of domain names, such as .com, .net, .org, .cn, .edu, .gov, etc. What suffix should be used when choosing a domain name? First of all, it depends on its own nature. If it is a government agency, it can undoubtedly choose .gov. If it is a non-profit organization, it is more appropriate to choose .org. In addition, many individual webmasters and companies usually choose .com domain names. Since .com has the widest range and is most familiar to the majority of users, it is recommended that webmasters without relevant background and special significance choose .com as the suffix domain name.
