How to Select a High Converting Domain Name For Your URL

domain names

Since the dawn of the Web, it has become a universal truth agreed upon by every successful internet marketing expert around the World, that having a great domain name is critical to your success.

A domain name is a small group of words that you’ll purchase from a domain registration company and then redirect toward the URL of your Landing Page or Lead Capture Page. (URL = universal re-direct link)

Because a URL is the exact online address where a website is hosted and can contain a combination of words, letters, numbers and even random, seemingly meaningless characters like question marks, back-slashes and dots, it’s a great idea to have a short, targeted domain name that describes your business, marketing system, product or service.

If you are using an online marketing system in which everyone is given a similar URL for their Landing Page, having a domain name that separates you from everybody else using the same system, is critical to your success.

Therefore, the domain name you purchase should be short and simple and something that intrigues a person to click on it when displayed in an email, online advertisement or from any website where your domain is posted, like at Facebook, YouTube or Twitter.

Buying a Domain

As a rule of thumb, always buy your own name, or a version of it.

If your name is John Smith, you might want to buy JohnSmith.com, JohnSmith.net or JohnSmith.info.

If these are not available, you can use variations like WhoIsJohnSmith.com, MeetJohnSmith.com or PartnerWithJohnSmith.com

Even if you don’t use this domain right away, you will certainly want your own name for any personal branding you might create in the future. Of course, you can use it for your Landing Page as well, if you choose, depending on the market you displaying your domain for.

Aa a rule of thumb, it’s a great idea to use your own name in a domain, when marketing to your friends, fans or followers from the Social Media Market.

People who follow you and are your friends on Facebook, Twitter, YouTube, LinkedIn, MySpace and/or any Social Media Platform, want to know YOU, and so by using your name or a version of it, this will create curiosity in your friends, fans & followers, perhaps compelling them to click on your link at your Profile Page.

When selecting a domain name for Online Advertising, it’s a great idea to create what is known as “relevance”, by including in your domain name, a couple or few words that appear on your Landing Page.

Because this is not a Social Media Advertising Campaign, using your name is not the best option because most often the cold market doesn’t know you, yet.

So, It’s better to go with more ‘Marketing Savvy’ words in a domain name that is short, sweet and intriguing to your audience.

Again, curiosity is one of the biggest factors in compelling people to click on your link. Your advertisement could even be overlooked, but your domain name might attract all the clicks.

A great way to come up with some ideas, is to build your Landing Page first, then purchase a domain name that matches up with some of the more powerful words on the page. Or, buy your domain name first and then make sure you use the words in it on your Landing Page at least a few times, closer to the top of the page in a Pre-Headline or Headline itself, where it will catch the attention of anyone who clicked on your domain name out of curiosity.

This will also help you get a good “Quality Score” with Search Engines, especially Google, if you are using Google AdWords to drive traffic to your Landing Page.

In addition, stay away from any abbreviations or spellings that are different than its normal spelling as it will confuse people.

For example, for the word “easy”, don’t use “EZ”. (not that we recommend that word as a part of your domain – just stay away from abbreviations)

The best domains use short words and phrases that are easy to spell and easy to remember.

A good domain name should create curiosity and intrigue people and make them want to see the information at your Landing Page or website.

Of course, if your Ad is well written and draws attention by high placement on Google’s Sponsored Ad Bars, your domain name is important, but what is MORE important, is that the searcher, now turning website visitor, finds what they were looking for when they click on your advertisement. Again, this is called “relevance”.

This goes for Social Media domain names as well. If one of your Facebook friends clicks on your displayed website address (your name.com), but they get wisked away to a Landing Page that reflects nothing about you and does not display your name, a picture of you, a video or anything about you, chances are they might think they are at the wrong page and most likely not even be interested.

You can buy inexpensive domain names at Go Daddy, if you don’t already have a domain registrar that you like. This is who I use for all my domain registration.

When visiting this website, the first thing you will want to do is Search for a Domain name, to see if it’s even available.

If it is, you will see suffixes available for the domain you choose, i.e..com,.net,.org,.us,.biz,.info, etc…

.Coms are usually associated with a website where a purchase might be made, ie. the word “commerce”.

.Nets could be used for “commerce” like a dot com, but are usually associated with a network that the website would represent.

.Info is usually associated with just that, information about someone or something

.Org is usually associated with information about an organization

And the list goes on!

Pick whichever you like, however, remember that Dot com domains usually get the biggest response, not because you’ll have the best domain name online, but because.com domains were the first to the marketplace when the internet was still in its infancy and if people forget that your domain is a.net or.biz or.info, they will always go to the.com version of your domain.

Be aware that it could take up to 24 hours for a newly registered domain name to be active so be sure not to start marketing it or sharing it with others until you have thoroughly tested it to make sure that it forwards to your Landing Page.

Now, after purchasing a domain name, you will want to forward it to your website URL.

Forwarding your domain to your URL is similar to someone calling your home telephone number, but being “forwarded” to your cell or mobile phone.

Forwarding a domain name is the same concept – you choose where your purchased “Domain”, forwards to, in this case, your URL.

You can even “mask” your domain name, which simply means that when a visitor lands on your site, they will not see the URL, but the domain name which you purchased, forwarded and now want to display in the address bar of your website.

So this is how to select a high converting domain name for your URL and how to make sure that your Landing Page and/or Website gets as much traffic as possible when advertising and marketing online.

Just keep in mind that your domain name marks the beginning of your Marketing System or Funnel, so make sure that it catches people’s attention, compels them to want to look at your business and is a working link that will take them directly to your website.

The Domain Name Gold Rush

domain names

All the good ones are taken. The really good ones, that is. But
they don’t always stay taken.

Domain names often come back onto the market. Even before they
do, domain name prospectors are sifting through them to find the
gold domains among them.

Why domain names become available again

Thousands of domain names expire every day. Other domains are
offered for sale. The reasons are varied:

Carelessness

The webmaster forgets to renew the domain by the expiry date.

The email address that the domain is registered with becomes
invalid, and the domain name registrant doesn’t receive the
renewal notices.

- Lack of need or funds

- The company that had registered the domain goes out of
business.

- The website owner loses interest in or doesn’t have time for
the website.

- The website owner doesn’t have funding to continue the website
venture.

- The domain name registrant registered numerous domains on
speculation and couldn’t afford to continue renewing unused
domains.

Profit

- The domain name registrant may realize how much a domain is
worth and decide to sell it.

- The domain name registrant may have registered the domain
because of its potential worth, with the aim of selling it later.

What makes a previously registered domain name valuable?

In July 2005, the domain name website.com sold for 0,000, the
highest-valued domain name sale this year. Why would anyone pay
so much for a domain when they could register a new domain for
under ?

- Instant traffic

If the domain name previously pointed to a website, search
engines have already indexed that domain name. Other websites
probably still have links to that domain. If the domain is
listed in directories, these links bring in even more traffic.
You register the domain, and the work getting incoming links has
already been done for you.

- Surf value

Sometimes web surfers search by typing generic words followed by
dot com (or other extensions) into their browsers, for example,
dogs.com. This particular domain name redirects to the website
for a company that sells pet products and services. A domain
name like this constantly brings visitors to the website without
the cost and effort of advertising and marketing.

- Easy to remember

Your company name may not be memorable, but domains such as
dogs.com and website.com are. People are more likely to return
to a site or pass on the name to their friends when they can
easily remember it.

How to find domains pending expiration

You decide to join the gold rush for valuable pre-registered
domains. Finding expiring domains is the first step, but you
also need to research domains that are about to come back on the
market.

Lists of domains pending expiration

At these websites, among others, you can search for domains
containing keywords you enter. At expireddomains.com, the
results contain domains that are currently available, soon to
expire, on hold, in the Redemption Grace Period (RGP), or for
sale by their registrants. Extensions searched: .com, .net, and
..org.

The domainsbot.com database searches .com, .net, .org, .info,
and .biz extensions for domains that are available, for sale, or
expiring.

Domain research

You can find some (but not all) incoming links to a domain by
entering “link:siteURL” (replace “siteURL” with the domain name)
into Google or Yahoo. When you find the links, follow them to
see what types of sites link to the domain. How would you feel
about having these particular sites linking to your site?

Also look into any possible problems associated with the domain.
Search engines may have banned the domain if the previous site
had controversial search engine optimization techniques
employed, such as the use of hidden text or links. Check the
history of the site at a domain name via the WayBack Machine. If
the domain previously pointed to a site with gambling or adult
content or a lot of affiliate links, or if it employed
questionable search engine optimization techniques, search
engines may have banned the domain. Aside from the possibility
of a domain being banned, you may not want incoming links from
sites associated with these types of content.

How to register domains pending deletion

You’ve decided on a domain that you want. How do you maximize
your chances on getting it?

At eNom.com’s Club Drop, you can bid on expiring .com and .net
domains the day before they’re available to the public. You can
also be notified when domains matching your search criteria
become available.

The NameWinner system places bids on .com, .net, .org, and .info
domains for you. It bids only as high as is necessary to
maintain your high bid position up to your maximum bid.

How to profit from your domains

- Selling domains

If you have a domain that may be valuable and that you aren’t
using, consider selling it at a domain auction. If you already
have a buyer for a domain, you can transfer it securely through
Escrow.com.

- Paid parking for domains

With paid domain parking programs, also called “domain
monetization” or “monetize domains,” you can earn pay-per-click
revenue via targeted advertisements. These sites offer domain
monetization services:

- DomainSponsor

- Park Quick

- Domain Spa

- Google Adsense for domains

With the right knowledge, timing, and a bit of luck, you have a
chance as a domain name prospector to hit pay dirt.

Cheap Domain-Buy the Ultimate Domain Name

A comrade of supply calls me the “Domain Queen”, since at single period I possess in this area 50 domains. I’ve let several of them move (I own only 22 now) as my topic has misused and urbanized, or I’ve recently easily unconscious hobby in the aim. I’m generally asked how I move out about selection of use domain names, so much as the “Domain Queen”, I’ll divide my idea course with you.

1. Whats the reason of the domain name? Are you planning on make do with The present fame as the focal website for your enterprise, as a single contact buying dispatch place, or hold side place? If the domain fame will be your basic enterprise website, effort and catch the nearby story to your enterprise fame that you can. If you’re now preparatory out, pick your trade identify and domain fame with thoughtfulness.

When I on track my fundamental companion usual procedure, I appoint the refer to SOHO dealing Solutions, as I idea everybody knew that SOHO stood for slight position, home-based department.

I feel I’ve travel into 2 public in my 7 years in small business who knew what that acronym stood for. If I had it to prepare more than one more time for The present small business, I would point out a small business fame and domain fame with fundamental companion in the title, according to Internet purchasing Virtual companion.Com, a fame I truly lately achieve.

If the aim of a domain is for a one-page business dispatch place or a hold side, feel early as to how you might build up this site. For the reason that gratified is ruler in today’s internet retailing world, there’s tiny luck that each of these number of sites would be chosen up by the search engines on key terms. Accordingly, your most excellent move up scheme is PPC, or “pay for each click”, everywhere you’re business keywords for sequence in search engines. If you’re retail keywords from Google, for example, the paid listings are present at the basic of a inquiry in a blue package, or low the right-hand part of your screen.

You wish for to be really that the info displayed there is force to acts much as necessary to acquire someone to click along with call your location. Usually, for case, I’ve shaped a hold contact, Get added buyer Online.Com, which has a force to act result to a usual trouble that my buyer have, as a surface entry portal to my OnlineBizCoachingCompany.Com coaching website.

2. Brainstorm a catalog of method of the difficult you’re annoying to deal or the result that you have. A domain fame that openly make what you resolve, or a difficult that you deal, or a result that you have to a difficult will grant a visitor a fair and square fine drawing of what s/he’ll catch on your website. What I hide work out is go off to my domain record, www.UltraNetDomains.Com, along with very soon begin publicize in the names I’m share idea until I occur up with 3 or 4 that are accessible. If the domain label that you way in isn’t accessible, the business will extend upward with 10 or so chance for you to assent to. I detect this chance list absolutely useful freshly in selection the fame of an article agenda place that I like to build.

3. For SEO (Search Engine Optimization) aim, it beneficial to have your keywords in your domain fame. Marla Regan, who’s a certified planner, has put two keywords in her domain label, OrganizedTime.Com. Retreating Coach Lin Schreiber has her keyword compartment in her domain, RevolutionizeRetirement.Com. Professional advisor John Reddish has the long for consequence keywords in his domain, GetResults.Com. I own a domain that I haven’t yet growth for home caretaker, befit AHouseSitter.Com. Previously exchange your domain, manufacture an inventory of keywords that someone might make use of to catch you online. This catalog could admit your management, your function bazaar or compartment, a difficult your Destination advertise has, or a result that you can award.

4. Little is choice, if it’s to be your basic domain. I haven’t continually come after my particular habit at this point, as I look after to have small business names that are absolutely extended. If the domain label is going away to be your basic domain where your first email dispatch will be contained, you want your domain identify to be as little, catchy, and signal as viable. Similar to a few period of meaning impossible your extended email dispatch, you’ll approach to understand the shape of a little domain fame. Your domain fame can involve up to 67 script and figures, admitting I would further you not to have one of this part, and can involve no particular lettering other than hyphens.

5. Possession your particular fame as a domain name. I typically tell my buyer not to effort and quality their known fame as their small business fame, as that takes countless years, great fund, and several of powerfully creation to have the fame acknowledgment of Oprah, for pattern. After all, it at rest wages to buy your given fame as domain fame, as well as some ordinary misspelling acknowledgment

Of your fame. numerous public feel my choose is Donna Gunther, with an “h” in the final label, although I’ve been incapacitated to file that mutual misspelling of my label, as a artist in Venice, CA, has owned in since 2000. Once upon a time you’ve achieve your name as a domain, you can turn a different direction it to your basic website. This way that when someone write in a domain, they gain at the website to which you call attention that domain. So much, presently DonnaGunter.Com change to OnlineBizCoachingCompany.Com for the reason that I don’t like to benefit from my fame as a website, admitting that might modify in the upcoming.

6. Buy the .COM version of the label if it is free. When public read a domain fame, they read .COM whether it’s .NET or .BIZ or .ORG or Part for. Usually, it wages to discover a domain label that you want that is factor of the .COM relations. If you merely can’t get the fame you like, effort a hyphenated story of the .COM fame. For pattern, as I was looking for domain fame for my Self-Employment Coaching sports center,

I absolutely felt a need SelfEmploymentSuccess.Com, but it wasn’t presented. Any how, Self-Employment-Success.Com was accessible; usually I catch hold of that. Countless SEO professional state that search engines according to hyphenated names, and countless online business purchasers make use of hyphenated keywords in their domain names to be more delightful to search engines. I don’t have a bright reply as to the genuineness of the present feeling, usually I now promoter going the present course previous to having to vacation place to the .NET or .BIZ of the fame you appeal.

How to snatch your desired expiring Domain

domain names

What is a domain name?

A domain name is the address of a web site that is intended to be easily identifiable and easy to remember, such as yahoo.com, or google.com. These user-friendly addresses for websites help connect computers – and people – on the Internet. Because they are easy to remember and use, domain names have become business identifiers and, increasingly, even trademarks themselves, such as amazon.com. By using existing trademarks for domain names – sony.com, for example – businesses attract potential customers to their websites.

Domain reservation : It is good to have a websites for your business , each and every company try to block the domain name the moment they named their business . You can search for the availability of domain namein reservation service provider like www.godady.com orwww.networksolution.comor you can reserve the domain from any of web hosting service provider . But I recommend you to reserve the domain name with domain registration service provider than web hosting . Because some time you will find difficulties to change the web hosting provider after any disputes. If the domain is not available in .com then you may check for regional domain extenction like .co.uk , co.in .in , com.au etc. How to snatch your desired Domain Business owners will get upset when their domain name related to their business was registered by some one else already. Domain name reservationis first come first serve basis and some time companies get their name back after a legal battle and this will cost you lot and can be done only by big corporate like Microsoft , they approached the court for the domainmicros0ft.com. If the desired domain is registered already then check the whois details http://www.networksolutions.com/whois/index.jsp for the registered owner details. You can judge the age of domain from the “Record created on ” details. If it is too old then chances of getting the domain name is very less . Try to access the domain via browser some times it may be listed for sale by domain trader and there may be a change to buy it and the price will depend on the domain popularity. You can also approach the domain owner to buy the domain using whois contact details and there may be change for that . Facebook.com CEO Mark Zuckerberg Launched the social network aswww.thefacebook.com.because that time some one was registered www.facebook.com . Once his web sites become most popular he www.facebook.com bought the from the original owner for million of US$ . It is not possible for small business owner to buy back the domain at premium price and you may try to get the desired name in any of the following ways . Domain expiration : Note down the domain expiration details and check weather your domain is renewed or not using who is details on due date. As per the survey 30 to 40 % of domain owners failed to renew the domain name. If it was notrenewed on due date then be alert and you may get it back in 75 days. Domain delete cycle.
Expired Status :

After a due date domain status will be set as Expired,most of the domain registration service provider will send up to 3 email reminder about expiring domainto the domain admin contact set in the who is record , but owner may miss that warning email if they changed the email address . Owner may realize about the domain expiration when they are unable to access the email service or website. Owner can renew the domain again with in 45 days for domain expiration date with out any additional price. Redemption Grace Period: If the domain owner failed to renew the domain with in 45 days of expiration date then domain name status will be set as Redemption and owners details will be removed from whois data. Original owner still have a chance to renew the domain for another 35 days with additional fees up to US0 based on the service provider. Owner may contact the web hosting service providerfor live support via live chat or email to renew the domain. Deletion Period : After the redemption period of 45 days , domain will be deleted completely from the whois database with in 5 days and any one can register it after the deletion. Deletion period may be up to 5 days depends upon the service providerand you have to check the availability very frequently during this stage. If the domain name is not much popular then you can register it from any domain registration provider or web hosting companies. Some time domain name itself a keyword then lot of people will try to get that domain name will create more competition and in that case it is safe to place a Back order with leading domain registration service provider like godady.com, Snapnames.com, Enom.com, and Pool.com . I recommend you to place the back order with more than one provider and you will get the money back if they failed to block the domain for you.
