Domain Names

How to Instantly Out-Rank Your Competitors on the Internet
 


 

Choosing the most appropriate Domain Name will grab instant credibility and attention from your potential Online Customers

Making that all-important first impression by getting a top ranking in the Search Engines or running an effective Pay-Per-Click Campaign starts with registering the best Domain Name - even if you’ve already got a website, since a new Domain Name can be set to redirect visitors to your existing web pages

 

When deciding your Domain Name, start with the end in mind

To get Sales your website must get Visitors

To get Visitors your website must get Traffic

To get Traffic your website must be highly ranked in the Search Engines or have a Pay-Per-Click Campaign, and be actively searched for by your qualified potential buyers

Your Domain Name will be your signpost on the Internet for many years to come, so it must be visible and relevant to the Search Engines, and exactly targeted to potential buyers looking for you

By having a Domain Name which instantly states what you do and where you do it faster than your competitors, you are immediately positioned to win more business than they do

This Domain Name Guide reveals the two critical success factors in deciding your Domain Name, and our Free Keyword Report eliminates guesswork by giving you the search terms being used to find your business - today

Using the most highly searched-for keywords to choose the best Domain Name guarantees you more qualified potential buyers through higher and faster Search Engine rankings and Pay-Per-Click advertising campaigns

These two simple things instantly make your Domain Name out-rank your competitors in the Search Engines:

  • Your Domain Name Description states what you do by using keywords that are both relevant to you and actively being searched for by your potential buyers
     
  • Your Domain Name Extension (.com .net .biz .info .co.uk .gov etc.) states where and what your marketplace is


What do these Domain Names tell you?

www.prospectwebsite.com (a UK based Estate Agency – did you guess?)

www.whitegrove.com (a small football team in a small town in the UK – did you guess?)

Would this be your choice of Domain Name?


By comparison, consider these highly targeted Domain Names and what they instantly tell you:

www.horse-transportation.co.uk (a company transporting horses based & trading in the UK)

www.topsearchenginemarketing.com (a company specialising in Search Engine Marketing services and trading internationally)

Both these Domain Names have been carefully selected to generate the maximum traffic from Google searches for a specific keyword relevant to the service offered. It also reflects on the professional attitude of the Domain Name owner that they have made the effort to get it right and serve their potential buyers better

Your Domain Name Description strategy:

 

  • Describe your product or service in a short, concise statement
  • If appropriate, use a clear benefit statement, like fast, easy, instant, secure
  • Brainstorm ideas and try to put yourself into the mind of someone looking for you
  • Use a Thesaurus to come up with alternative descriptions
  • If you have multiple products or services you should register multiple Domain Names
  • Register multiple variants which can capture web traffic for you and be redirected to your main Domain Name (e.g. horsetransportation.co.uk along with horse-transportation.co.uk)
  • To check the most popular search terms currently being made on your chosen Domain Name, or words within it, you can request our Free Keyword Report (examples are shown above)
  • Ensure you choose the most appropriate Domain Name Extension for your marketplace (NEXT)

Your Domain Name Extension strategy should be:

  • Register as many extensions as you can afford – you can use these to generate additional traffic, and you may be able to sell any you are not using yourself later, plus our preferred ISP gives away free .co.uk Domain Names if you register a .com extension (plus other goodies)
  • Only use the most appropriate one yourself from this list to ensure a credible and professional image
    • .com | Commercial company, trading anywhere (often has downloadable products on trial or paid for in advance by credit card)
    • .co.uk | Commercial company, trading within UK only
    • .eu.com .gb.com .uk.com .us.com | Only choose these if you are committed to having some form of .com extension, as they are a little self-contradictory in our opinion; second choice to .com
    • .net | Technology-based or Technical services company, trading anywhere
    • .gb.net .uk.net | Technology-based or Technical services company, trading in UK; second choice to .net
    • .biz | Business to Business, trading anywhere
    • .us | an American Domain Name identity
    • .org .org.uk .info | Non-profit organisations
    • .me.uk .name | Personal and individual Domain Names not advised for Commercial companies

Domain Names are usually registered for a one- or two-year period
