Domain Owl

In the last several years the availability of website domain name suffixes have grown. These include such names as .eu, .ws, .cc, and so on. This makes it a little bit easier to find a domain name directly related to the subject of your website.

For example, if you want to create a website about raising goats, it would make sense to use a domain name with that exact phrase in it. Unfortunately for you however, lots of other people have had the same idea. So www.RaisingGoats.com may no longer be available, or www.RaisingGoats.net, .bu, .biz, or any other domain name at the top level suffix.

It is also a fact that people that are doing searches on the net are going to give first priority to the sites that have a top-level domain name such as .com or .net.  With the. com top-level domain (TLD) people automatically think that they are more credible and have authority just because they have been around since the beginning of time. This is important to consider as you are promoting your business or products as it translates into trustworthiness.

People also believe that search engines will rank sites better with a top level domain (TLD) of .com. However, this is not true. As long as you have a domain name with your main keywords ,the top search engines will find this relevant and will allow you a fair chance of ranking.

So now that we know the importance of a top-level domain (TLD) of .com, what can you do about it? There are a couple easy tips that will help you in getting a domain name of your choosing with a .com at the end.

The first thing that you should try is to pluralize your version of the key phrase rather than a singular version or vice versa.

The second thing that you can try is far more likely to get you what you want. You can add numbers to your website name. Don’t try putting the numbers in front of the name, but rather at the end. Search engines don’t necessarily like domain names that start out with numbers. However, numbers at the end of your address will work fine. Better yet, adding numbers such as “2”, or “4”, in the body of the web address work really well.

The reason I use the number “2” and number “4” for examples, is that the number “2” can substitute for the word “to”, and the number “4” can be substituted for the word “for”.

You can also use this idea with the letter “u”, and replace the word “you”. Using these tactics you are sure to find a good top level domain name (TLD) that still fits very nicely with the subject of your website.

At this point you should have a good idea of how you can come up with creative ways to get the name that you want for your website using a top-level domain (TLD) .
