Tips for choosing and registering a good domain name

Everyone would like to think that their online business is going to be the next Amazon.com, or Yahoo.com, and will get instant recognition once they publish their web site on the Internet. However, the odds of that happening are minimal. Therefore, you should establish a domain name that meets the following criteria:

  • Should be easy to remember, easy to spell, and preferably short. The name of your company is always a good choice. If your desired domain name is already taken, you can search if the .net or .org variation is available. You may also use hyphens to create unique domain names.
  • .Com, Net, and .org domain names must meet these requirements: They cannot exceed 67 characters, including the characters in the suffix (63 characters plus the 4 character .xyz). Only letters, numbers, or hyphens are permitted. A domain name may not begin or end with a hyphen. These requirements are not set by registergo.com. They are part of the regulatory standards that .com, Net and .org domain names must follow.
