As the saying goes: A good start is half the success. Here, I would like to say that a good domain name is the beginning of your success. As a webmaster, no one registers a domain name of their choice without careful consideration. Webmasters do not waste dozens of dollars to register a domain name because the domain name is unique. If you choose it, others cannot register it. But how to choose a domain name that is beneficial to the long-term development of your website? Let me share with you the domain name selection for novices.
The domain names introduced below are all simple and easy to remember.
First: COM domain names are preferred for domain name registration, because the potential impact of COM domain names on people cannot be changed by a few people in a few years. For example: baidu.com is not only easy to remember, but also short and concise. If you create baidu.net or baidu.com.cn, the effect is far less effective than .com, so when choosing, you should pay attention to the preferred COM domain name.
Second: Pinyin domain name. Many times, when someone tells me about a website, I think that the domain name of the website is the pinyin of the website plus .COM. Unless it is well-known and remembered by me, I will not be confused.
For example: Mango.com. It takes a lot of effort from hearing about "Mango.com" to typing mangocity.com. Since it has taken the name of Mango.com and is so rich, what I can’t understand is why it doesn’t buy a good domain name. Why not buy mango.com or mangguo.com? Maybe it only costs a few hundred thousand, instead of wasting hundreds of millions to promote mangocity.com, so when I build a website, I mainly do group work. When it came time, I chose the pinyin of the www.qunneila.com group as the domain name, so that it would be easier for everyone to remember.
Third: Domain names with hidden meanings
For example: the domain name of Henan Webmaster Network is www.hazzw.com . You may not remember it after reading it once, but webmasters who are not connected to the Internet all know that HA is the top-level domain name of Henan, so hazzw is exactly the Henan Webmaster Network. , it is easier to remember if you explain it this way, so don’t create a domain name that is vaguely understood, so that users cannot remember it many times. This will be very laborious to promote the website, and the effect is not very good.
Fourth: Register the domain name in the order of homophonic letters and numbers.
For example, Sina, chinaz.com, zhanzhang.com, 3158.cn. 59.cn 371.com, etc. are all relatively good domain names.
Fifth: Confusing domain names
For example, baidula.com, sinacn.com, etc., these are all methods that investors are good at using, but if you use it personally, it is best to choose a name that is closely related to your own field and a name that is easy to associate.
Personally, I am not optimistic about adding "-" or adding some letters in the middle of the domain name. For example, ha-bbs, huazioo and other domain names should not exceed 5 letters or numbers.
Sixth: Please refer to the law when registering domain names.
There are many differences between domestic domain name registration and international domain name registration, which are summarized as follows:
1. Naming of domain names: There are many restrictions on naming domain names: including
a. "CHINA", "CHINESE", "CN", "NATIONAL", etc. are not allowed to be used as part of the domain name;
b. Do not use the names of other countries or regions, foreign place names, or international organization names that are known to the public;
c. Without the approval of local governments at all levels, the full name or abbreviation of the name of an administrative division above the county level (including county level) shall not be used;
d. Do not use industry names or common product names;
e. Do not use others’ business names or trademark names that have been registered in China;
f. Names that are harmful to the country, society or public interests shall not be used.
The above are just a few personal opinions on domain name registration. I hope it will be helpful to everyone. For more exchanges, please join QQ group 4820214
