How Domain Name Suggestion Tools Can Benefit You

By Dean Smith


A website is a useful promotional tool. It is where you can inform people about yourself and your product. You can include details such as embedded videos, audio files and so forth. However whatever the content of a website it is important that people are able to find it. Therefore it is worth considering using domain name suggestion tools in order to make sure you get the traffic your website deserves.

For example you may have recently come up with a brilliant website. Everyone agrees that it looks brilliant, it is easily accessible and everybody who uses it says how wonderful it is. However you may not be getting as much traffic as you like. One reason for this could be the wrong domain name.

Ideally you should get a . Com domain. While there are other options such as . Tv and there are likely to be more in the future . Com is still what a lot of people look for. It is what they think of when they type something into a search engine and it will often be the first thing they click on when they look online.

If possible it should be . Com as opposed to a specific country such as . Co.uk or . Ie. This is generally what people tend to look for. You should also avoid names with excessive slashes or characters. If possible keep it to one word and make sure it includes a keyword that is relevant to your business. In some cases the . Com may not be available. If you have a name that you really want to use then a good alternative is . Org or . Info as these are often commonly looked at as well.

There are a number of sites where you can look up keywords online to see what people are searching for. This will give you an idea of their level of popularity. You can then decide what ones would be best for you and how to incorporate them into a name.

The best way of doing this is by using a domain name suggestion tool. You type in a keyword and it should give you a range of options based on that. You can then look online to see whether it is available and if so how much it will cost.

Once you have found one you should also consider the hosting package and how much it will cost to renew. You do not necessarily have to buy it from the first site you see. It is worthing checking other sites that offer this service in order to see what is available.

There are a number of tools available for domain name suggestions. You can also find a lot of directory sites and customer reviews recommending them. It is worth trying a couple to see what results come up the most frequently. This should help you find the best ones for your requirements.
