Choosing A Domain Name

A domain name is simply the name you type into the address bar to locate a website(example: www.successmatrix.net is our domain name).You will see some domain name have a (/) in them with more information after the (/), this is just a certain part of the original domain name, or a different page you may view (example: www.successmatrix.net/internet-business-steps-for-beginners.html).

When choosing a Domain Name you should keep it short and simple. If you choose a long domain name people won’t remember it or they will type it in wrong. Image is everything and no matter what you do with your website, the first thing people will see is your Domain Name when checking the search engines. You want a professional sounding business name.If the name you have decided on is not available try changing it by adding to it.(example successmatrix.net to successmatrix1.net or thesuccessmatrix.net).

When registering a domain name you are renting a space for a specific amount of time, usually a year or longer. You normally will be given the option to renew your registration when you are getting close to the expiring date.
