Business Domain Name Registration For Websites

Choosing a Business Domain Name

Business Domain Name Registration For Websites - It is essential that great care is taken when choosing a business domain name for your website. Mackins Design Studio can manage your Business Domain Name registration on your behalf. Read on for more information on Business Domain Name Registration.

 

Domain Name Registration Service

We can register your domain names for you, provided we are designing and creating a website for your business. It is often wise to allow your web designer to register domain names on your behalf, so they can be set up for web hosting and email without having to go through a domain transfer process to allow him/her to take control of your domain.

 

TLD (top level domain) Variants

If you are planning on registering a .co.uk web site domain name (example: mycompanyname.co.uk), you would be advised to also buy the other Top Level Domains for the same prefix (example: mycompanyname.com, mycompanyname.net, mycompanyname.info). By doing this, you can stop other businesses gaining from your brand name by using a different suffix (.com, .info, .net etc.).

There are numerous types of TLD which can be registered, we would advise you to buy the following TLD variants to protect your company brand:

Buy as many TLD variants as you like, but ensure you get the major ones as listed above. Some people looking to jump on the back of your branding may also register your domain name separated by hyphens: my-company-name.com, my-company-name.net, my-company-name.info which is something else you should consider.

 

Are All TLD's Available?

If you search for a domain name for your business and find that only the .co.uk TLD is available for your selected prefix (example: mycompanyname), we would advise selecting a different domain name prefix, a domain name that has all of the main TLD variation available.

 

Planning for The Future

We would advise you to select a domain name which limits you to your current market area as your business may add new products or services in the future, or you may change to a completely different product or service altogether. Therefore, we would advise you not to make your business domain name too specific, choose a name that will allow your business to evolve without having to change your domain name.

 

Domains Containing Search Keywords?

Some of the major search engines are currently giving extra ranking weight to domains that include your product or service name. Based on our extensive experience, domains that have the keywords in them do appear to rank better in tests we have carried out. But, remember the Search Engines are constantly change the way they rank websites and this could change in the future.

 

Domain Name Registration companies

We would advise you to select a major Domain Name Registration company who is established and has been around for a while. If you register with a new company and that company goes out of business, this could cause big problems in the future.

Select a Domain Name Registration company which offers a user Control Panel that allows you to manually edit your domain name options, such as email forwarding or transferring your domain name to another hosting company.

If you choose to buy numerous domains at once, you should register them all through one Domain Name Registration company. The management of your domains will be much easier if they are all accessed and administered from the same Control Panel.
