Importance of Domain Name
The feeling a person gets when he purchases his
own house is overwhelming. He gets a permanent
address. People get to know about his address and
are aware that where to go when they desire or
require to meet him. Owning a personal domain
name is similarly where one gets recognized in
the virtual world. It's a world where there is no
guarantee of the people's identity who are using
other domain names to carry out their business
work or just socialize.

What is a Domain Name?

As the internet traffic increased someone came up
with an idea of giving IP addresses an alternate
name so that internet users can easily remember
the addresses and also the identity of the user
one is wants to reach. Data bases of these names
were created which would lead you the desired IP
addresses. These names are known as the domain
names or in technical terms URL (Uniform Resource
Locators). There is a gigantic database server
called ICANN (Internet Corporation For Assigned
Names And Numbers) which has all the domain names
registered in it. If a person wills to register
his/her domain name into that server he/she has
to pay certain amount according to the world
domain registration rates.

Sections of a Domain Name
There are two sections in a domain name -Top
Level Domain (TLD) which is the part of the
domain located to the right of the dot e.g.,
www.xyz.com, .biz (reserved for business), .mil
(reserved for the military), .name (reserved for
individuals), .edu (reserved for post secondary
institutions). -The other is Second Level Domain
(SLD). This is the part of the domain which is
located to the left of the dot.

Importance of having a Domain Name
-Once you have a domain name you are considered
to be a registered citizen of the cyberspace and
hence you are seen as a credible user who has an
original identity and is worth for trusting upon
regarding any concerned business. -Having a good
and catchy domain name makes you much more
approachable and authentic as a user. Other than
this, the problem of many users using one domain
name vanishes as you get yourself a personal
address. No other person would have the authority
to use your domain name as his address.

-People looking at your domain name would make up
a professional image of your company and the
amount of credibility in the back of their minds
only if your domain name is catchy and short
enough to be remembered. -Also getting a domain
name registered enables you to make multiple
e-mails so that you can handle the visitors
feedback process in a sorted manner and make the
visitor to easily reach you and send across their
message easily. -Unique domain names are
preferred by search engines to be placed at
higher ranking which would eventually increase
your visitors helping you get more business
opportunities. -Not having your own domain name
makes an individual or a business entity
amateurish and less credible among the visitors
and the clients. These days it is a lot easier to
won domain names as the process is simple and
cheap to carry out.

Tips to Choose the Right Domain Name
Choosing the right domain name is the most
important step involved in establishing your
online business and driving traffic to your
website. The following are some tips which one
should consider while deciding a domain name
10
-Using the right keywords in your domain name is
the best way to improve your Search Engine
Optimization and driving the target web traffic
to your website. -Keep your domain name unique.
With this we mean not to add or misspell the
domain name intentionally to get more traffic.
This would be of no use to you as the amount of
unwanted traffic would certainly out number the
amount of the target traffic. -Make the domain
easy to spell and remember-able. -Most of the
users identify the most with the ".com". So, if
possible try to use ".com" as the top level
domain in your domain name. ".com" would let the
visitor know that you are a business entity like
".gov" makes everyone understand that it is a
government run website. -Check your Spelling and
avoid using abbreviation as they may confuse the
prole who try to reach you through the address.
