Creating A Great Domain Name

Naming a site after its domain name is important, for the simple reason that when people think of your website, they'll think of it by name. If your name is also your web address, they'll automatically know where to go. For example, when people think of DocWebDesigner.com, they don't have to wonder what web address to type into their browser to get there. The name of the site is also the web address.

Below are some good tips on creating a good domain name for your personal or business website.

1. Make it Easy to Type.
