Posted by Shiva Sunday, December 18, 2011

A good domain name reflects the purpose of its existence, and is the number one priority. Without an interesting domain name that somehow indicates what the website is about, the guest will not be inclined to check out the website. But don't think that if you put all your creativity into your domain name, you will get a great one. So what could be the key to finding good domain name easily and without putting in too much effort? The best domain name in the world is one with the relevant keywords embedded in it. Attractiveness and optimization are the two important ingredients for a successful domain name. This is your lucky day - this article will teach you how it is done easily!

You will have to start by searching a keyword that is good for the search engines and also can be a part of your domain name. To find this, you can use a keyword analyzer. You will get these if you do a search on the search engines. Think of some keyword that summarizes your website in short and enter it into this tool. You will get many options from the analyzer for the keyword you have used. From the returned options pick a particular domain name that better serves the meaning of your website. Your site is better search engine optimized if you use a long tail keyword because there will be fewer webmasters who will choose them.

Once you have selected your desired keyword for the domain name, you have check a domain name service for its availability. Should the exact name be unavailable, you will be given some alternatives. It is always good to go for the .com type domain names, but if these cannot be obtained, you could also consider different extensions.

Just putting in some filler words or numbers will allow you to retain your keyword. One ruse is to put the words 'a,' 'an' or 'the' as fillers. You get a good domain name, and you also get it indexed because the search engines will simply ignore such buffer words. Also consider using numbers such as 77 at the end of the phrase.

If .com, .org or .net cannot be purchased you could also try going for local extensions, for example .de for Germany, or .eu which stands for European Union. They tend to also work well with the search engines. Some also opt for extensions such as .biz or .info. Keep in mind, though, that if you decide to get one of those it may be harder for your website to rank in search engines.
