Website Marketing with Domain Names - Part 1
Domain names are extremely helpful to your business. They are the key that will have your clients finding you in the online world. Of course if you are only online and this is how you are securing your clients it can be less important. However, if you are a local business that has an online site it is imperative that you have a domain name that will mean something online in regards to your local location.
For example say you have a pet store business named Rocky’s Pet Supplies. You would want the domain name to be www.rockyspetsupplies. Then you need to decide where on the web you would like your audience to find you. In other words if you are based in the UK you would want a .co.uk ending to the domain name. This will tell the visitor where you are located and may be shipping from. On the other hand if you are based in the US a .com would suffice.
The idea is to create a domain name that means something to the online customer as well as places like Google. Google is going to offer the website for the location you are searching in over other countries. You can also have the site redirected to the proper location.
