Domain name registration


A domain name is a name that identifies a computer or computers on the Internet. These names appear as a component of a Web site's URL, e.g. ideo-studio.com. This type of domain name is also called a hostname. In fact, all computers in the Internet a identified with figures, e.g. 192.233.100.18, but for the majority of people it’s quite difficult to memorize such a set of numbers. That’s why the letter addresses were invented, called domains. Only Latin letters are used for domain names.

Choosing a domain name is an important part of the website development: The domain name should be easy to remember. It’s preferable to think out several domain names, as some them could be already used by someone else.

Domains are registered within several days, the registration deadline is one year or several years, after that registration must be renewed.

An easy-to-remember and to pronounce domain name relating to the activities of your business will play an important role in promoting your company in the Internet.

Here are some reasons to register someone’s own domain name.

1. Your address will be easy-to-remember

If your website has a short and an easy-to-pronounce name, a potential customer will easily memorize it. You’ll be able to spell it easily by phone. A visitor of the site will remember its address even a week after he sees it, and will recommend to his friends. And so on.

2. Quick search in the Web

The match of your website address and the name of your company will make an additional contribution to the promotion of the name (brand) of your company on the Internet. If a user knows your company, the first thing he would do in order to find you in the Internet is to type either www.company_name.com, or www.company_name.ca (for Canada). It’s preferably to register several domain names corresponding to the most likely spellings of your company.

3. Strengthen the image and reliability of the company

Lack of someone’s own domain name is often interpreted as a frivolous attitude to the Internet business or a lack of funds.

4. All the employees of your company would have the significant Email addresses.

Registering a domain name www.company_name.ca, you can open the mail server and assign to each employee an Email address as employee_name@company_name.ca. Such Email addresses will be informative and easy-to-memorize. In addition, you’ll be able to assign a number of service addresses like info@company_name.ca, support@company_name.ca etc.

  • The name should be easy-to-memorize
  • rather brief
  • simple in writing
