- Choose carefully, it's difficult to change the domain name in later stage
- Must buy .COM domain name
- Domain Name can be a company name, your name with the twist of your profession in that or sometime they does not mean anything
- If you are buying a name, 10 or less characters are recommended
- Keep 2 words as much as possible
- A domain name, should pass the phone test but it not necessary
- 1 word brand name also create good brands name.
