Some Domain Names Registration Tips

Having your own site or blog is now very popular not just for ecommerce but for many other purposes. Self expression through online publishing is just a primary reason and many of them can go from business to professional to academic purposes. Now, online publishing starts with getting your own URL and this can be done by getting domain names. When you plan to create your own site or blog or if you simply wish to reserve some names, then every useful and powerful tips and pointers to consider:


1. Make them unique and interesting


They serve as your virtual address on line. It is what people type over the internet to be led to your site or blog. Hence, it is important that you choose a name that is unique and interesting. You would want a unique name so people can easily remember it and so that internet users can easily type them when accessing your site. Remember that while your URL can easily be bookmarked for easy search, having an easy-to-remember name still counts.


2. Make them short


It's also important to choose domain names that are short. Not only are they easier to remember but also, they are easy to type. Based from experience, it really is quite unappealing to type in a long URL so the shorter the url, the better it is for both the user and the site owner.


3. Choose a domain that is reflective of the content


Aside from the length and uniqueness of your domain, it would also be important to carefully choose the words you use for your url. Choosing words that are too general or too common can cause confusion and can make it difficult so that you can establish branding and recognition. This is especially important if you wish to setup sites or blogs for business. You would want your url to be closely related to your site's content or to the business you offer.


4. Try to register for other extensions


When making your registration, it becomes a practical move to pay for multiple domains. Registering them are actually very affordable but you can obtain more savings if you actually register several. Aside from bulk registration, it would also be wise to register other extensions (dot net, dot org, dot info, etc.) so that prospective customers can land on your page when they forget to type your dot com address.


5. Opt for reputable and established domain name registration companies
Of course, it would always be better if you only deal with reputable companies. There are plenty of companies which accept registration for domain names and it can be difficult to choose with the low prices and great packages offered. Now, when you choose an established company, you get more assurance not just of quality and honest service but you can also expect better after-sales service and support.

Registering A .in Domain Name

Domain Name Registration

Domain registration is a simple process, you choose a domain name i.e. name of the site like yahoo or google and then choose its extension to register. One of the most common and popular extension is .com which is meant for online commercial activities.


Each domain is registered for at least one or more years (usually upto 10 years for most common domain names). A domain name is just an address on web which points to a location (web hosting server) and therefore whenever we register a domain we need a web hosting service which can either Linux based or Windows based.

What do you get when you register a domain name?

People often think that when they pay for domain name registration, they get a complete package to host a website. 


When we register a domain name we only receive an email which is linked to that domains name. It is like buying a mobile SIM which doesn't have only have a unique number associated with it and a validity period for which it will remain active if it that period is not extended to use the SIM we need a handset and talktime too.


Currently when you register a domain name from Infoweb Services you also get unlimited email forwarders, one hosted email account, dns management panel etc., which means that if you want to register a domain name to use it for customized email then it is already available free of cost.
