More details about Domain Name Registration
Everyday people from all over the world are scanning and searching for information, products and contacts. A good domain name ensures a valuable first impression upon your Website visitors.
The Domain Name Registrar is the corporate body that will keep a record of where your Website is in the world and on which computer it resides. Wherever it resides it will have an IP Address consisting of numbers and
full stops, such as 63.105.202.61. Read further for more details on this.
Meanwhile, instead of using an IP Address of numbers and full stops, you can make it much easier for people to find you by using a domain name, such as www.yourbusinessname.com or
www.yourbusinessname.net or www.yourbusinessname.com.au
This domain name can then be used in your advertising, on your business cards, promotional materials and other marketing purposes.
Domain Name Registration is where you pay an annual or biannual fee for the ownership of your own domain name such as www.yourbusinessname.com or www.yourbusinessname.com.au. Every domain name in use must be registered.
Once you have bought your domain name or we have bought it on your behalf, you own it as long as you keep it registered and up to date when renewal is due. It is important to put a note in your diary or on your calendar to renew. Failing to re-register can interrupt the services of your Website and you may even lose your Domain Name if your registration is not fully paid on time.
The use of a good domain name can be likened to Bob Anderson and his business name being Bob's Collector Stamps. A good domain name would be www.beststamps.com or www.collectorstamps.com or www.stampsaregreat.com.
A bad domain name would be www.bobanderson.com or www.bs.com. Having a clear word or definition such as 'stamps' in your domain name makes it easier for people to find you through search engines.
The selection of your domain name is also important due to the use of your domain name in your emails. bobanderson@beststamps.com would be more effective than bob@bs.com. Even though the latter is short and may be easy to remember, it is not really marketing your company name or trademark. Some people have even changed their business name or created a new business just for their online presence advantages.
Bob could receive 3 visitors a week in his hometown but have over 300 visitors to www.beststamps.com a week. If Bob could get his information right and have a great offer to encourage people to do business with him he might be able to convert 1 in every 50 visitors into a customer. He could then sell more products and make more money from his new national and international contacts as well as the money he is already making from his existing Local market
The overall design can change the face value of your business as people's first impression is established from your Website when potential customers find you online. Having an impact on the Internet can be greatly enhanced by the use of colours, navigation, layout and all functions working properly. first impressions are lasting and you can achieve fantastic results by having a user friendly and professionally designed website. We will discuss this in more detail in the last topic.
Select your domain carefully as you will have it for a long time and it is like your address and phone number combined. If you are in an Australian Business it is recommended that you register a .com.au domain and use it as your main domain name.
