Pick a Name

Now that you have an idea pick, a descriptive name that is keyword rich (ie contains words that the public might use when doing a Google search). For example, if you want a site about your favorite novels, the site name Carol's Favorite Novels would not be a good title. It is too general. Instead, think about your favorite novels in terms of category. Maybe you like Southern Novels which is much more targeted and descriptive. Carol's Southern Novels would be a great choice for a web site title.

Now pick a domain name. Choosing www.southernnovels.com would be a great keyword rich domain name. Try to pick a name using the suffix .com or .net if possible. If the names are taken try hypens like www.southern-novels.com. At Namesecure or Bravenet (see banner below) you can try out names for free to see what is available. They also have very low prices to register the name. Some hosting companies also pay for your domain name if you sign up for a hosting account.
