1. Domain Name Should Be Short

 

The Domain Name you choose should be short.It should contain maximum of 3 words not more than that. Try to to get a single word Domain Name. It will be difficult to get a single word Domain Name as you will find most of them have been already sold out. So try out some Synonyms and use the Dictionary to get maximum ideas for  a good Domain Name. But the words should not be complex. If don’t find any appropriate Domain Name for your niche then go for 2 words and 3 words Domain Name. Even the 3 word Domain Name should not contain more than 20  letters.So Try to get your Domain Name as short as possible.

2. Domain Name Should Be Easy To Memorize

 

Your Domain Name should be easy to memorize. So that it will be easy for the visitors to memorize the name your site and revisit it anytime depending on his requirement.Don’t have a complex Domain Name which will be difficult to memorize. Thus reducing the number of returning visitors.

3. The Words Used In Domain Name Should Be Easy To Spell

 

The words used in your Domain Name should be Easy to spell.It should not contain any strange fusion of characters.You should stay away from complicate spelled words.If you have some complex spelled words then your visitors might misspell your sites name ending up on another website . Resulting into loss of visitor. So be simple.

Depending on your need you should choose an extension for your site. If you are creating a site for an Organization you can opt for .org extension. If you targeting visitors from a certain geographical location  then you can opt for a .cn, .co, .uk type extensions. But you are creating a site for commercial purpose then you should definitely go for .com extension as they will provide you better results.

I basically prefer .com as it gives the best result and has made its own standard in people’s mind. Some of the basic internet users don’t even know that .net and .org type extension even exist .So the best possible and most popular is .com type of extension.

5. It Should Be Free From Hyphen And Numbers

Domain name containing hyphen(-) and numbers comes in complex type of  URL.Many people might misunderstood if you suppose use 1 for one. Many people might even forget if your URL contains Hyphen or not. Hence your Domain should be free from Hyphen and Numbers.

I will recommend you to visit Domain Tools  or  Check Domain for more help and search options.

NOTE:You may find some exceptions.
