Domain strategy is a critical component of any business’s overall marketing plan. Domains that are memorable make it easy for your target customer to find you – even if hearing about you only briefly, essentially bringing free, consistent traffic to your site. Domain names that contain (searched-for) keywords are extremely useful for search engines rankings. These two criteria are the foundation for determining an ideal domain name to buy for your business.
How To Choose a Domain Name
You can acquire domain names with either generic domain extensions or country specific domain extensions, according to the nature of your website. Of the top level generic domain name extensions, .com, .org, .info and .net are most commonly used. However, the .com domain names are the ones that sell the most because people are used to searching for companyname.com.
Premium Domain Names
Many .com domains have already been acquired, but may not be in current use. To buy one of these premium domain names, you may have to go through a reseller and might find that it costs more than you anticipated, but consider the benefits of this investment. A good domain name will bring targeted traffic to your website and grow your sales/leads. It can reduce your reliance on paid advertising including PPC and banner ads by attracting more organic search traffic over the long haul. The ROI is significant.
Financing Premium Domains
There are financing options for domain acquisition as well, including domain resellers who will sometimes offer a payment plan. It is a good idea to use a domain escrow service during the transaction to ensure a safe transfer of funds. Since it is a such a critical part of your business, view the cost of your premium domain name not as a cost, but as an investment.
