Selecting the best domain for your website

Selecting a domain name for your website is always a challenge for any startup or business. Should it be a .com, a .net or a .org is always a confusion for the business owner and his team. Currently there are over 100 different domains in the market and selecting the exact one is a bit of challenge.

Having a .COM domain is still preferred for a majority of business as they think that having a .COM domain will increase their presence on google listings. Nothing can be further from the truth now days! Now Google focuses more on the content rather than the .COM or any other domain TLDs.

Now many branded domains are coming on the market and such domains are now finding a better alternative to the traditional .COMs of the early 2000s. Now many country based domains like .IN for India are getting popular alternatives to the .COM and .NET domain, but even so many cheaper domains like third level domain like .NET.IN are also making waves and new companies who are finding their .COMs harder to find or already taken can easily book their .NET.IN domains.

For professionals or business now branded business related domains are more popular than the .COM.

People tend to remember you easily by your profession than your .com or company

More on such domain will be posted in my next blog.

Finally I would conclude by saying that any other domain name than a .COM can also give you professional results and so don't hesitate to experiment with these new non traditional TLDS
