What Are My Options To Register Domain Name?

By Kimberely Horns


With the technological advancements in our times, the number of online businesses being put up is increasing at a fast pace and there is a great income potential from the internet. So if you're trying to get your site live, one important step to accomplish is to register domain name. In order to jumpstart your success with your business website, you have to go through domain registration the right way.

So why would you need a domain name anyway? With a domain name, your website gets its identity on cyberspace and so users will now have a way to get to your site by entering it on their browsers. Domain names are the ones that have what they call extensions and those you may already know include .com, .org, .net, and .info. Take note that your domain name should be relevant to what your site is about.

When it comes to choosing the name of your domain, using certain keywords is very much common, particularly those that are relevant to your niche. It is also possible to use your brand name if you have one. If your business is about mobile phones, then it would be good to have a keyword about mobile phones as a domain name. Just make sure that you stay away from trademarked or copyrighted names.

In order to register domain name, you should be able to find a domain registrar that will make it all happen. Domain registrars are the companies that have the authority to register and allow the use of domain names. You have plenty of companies to choose from, some even provide free services. To be safe, just go with companies accredited by the Internet Corporation for Assigned Names and Numbers (ICANN).

Before you register domain name with a particular registrar, you should review carefully the terms of their contract. Each will have terms that could potentially be beneficial or risky for your website. Domain registrars will usually offer a variety of packages that can cover everything you will need to get your site up. Also, make sure that your registrar provides timely notifications once your registration is about to expire.

You can expect to receive quality registration services from well-known domain registrars, and these services come at a price. And while there are also those that offer their services for free, are you going to risk your business with them? Remember that you always get what you pay for. A $10 per year registration is not bad at all and there are many registrars that offer their services at that rate.

It may be possible that your chosen domain name has already been previously registered - if so, don't be discouraged. Just try to use your creativity to come up with unique set of relevant keywords. Also, make it a point that you register domain name under the .com extension because it will lend your site a good level of authority. In the registration process, you will be asked to provide some personal information.

Once you have decided to register domain name with your chosen domain registrar, you should also consider having your website hosted by a separate company. Hosting services provide a place for the contents of your website and it is where everything about your site is stored. So in order to minimize the risk, don't put all your eggs in one basket.
