Choosing a Domain

Below are some of the things that need to be taken into account
when registering a domain name.

Keep it shortAlthough some domain names can be up to 63 characters, people need to be
able to remember it and easily type it into their browser.
Try to register the shortest name that your customers and visitors will
associate with your Website.
The general rule of thumb is, keep it under seven characters if possible.
(Not including the suffix.)

Dot What?

There are many different extensions available for you to register.
For businesses we recommend a .com, .co.uk or .biz suffix.

Do Not Hesitate, Register Your Domain NOW!

To ensure that you get the domain name that you want you need to register it promptly. You do not need to be in the industry, you do not even need a web page. Just register before you lose the opportunity to have the domain name that you really want.

One May Not Be Enough

Sometimes, it a good idea to register several similar domain names,
particularly if you own a trademark for a certain name.
If you have "domainname.com", register "domainname.co.uk" so no
one else can register it.
You can register your full company name and a shorter, easier to remember version.
Registration even takes place for common misspellings of their company's name.
(You do not need a separate Web page for each name. Multiple domains often
point to the same website).

Character Types

Domain names can only use letters, numbers, and dashes.
Spaces and symbols are not allowed.
Also, domain names are not case sensitive.
