Buy a Domain name<\/span><\/strong><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: georgia, palatino, serif; font-size: 14pt; color: #000000;\" data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">A domain name is the web address where internet users access your blog or website. Every digital marketer advises you to pick brandable keywords to start a blog. But you must stop to erode the best resource i.e. time for searching Brandable names for your blog.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: georgia, palatino, serif; font-size: 14pt; color: #000000;\" data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">Let&#8217;s take a simple test.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: georgia, palatino, serif; font-size: 14pt; color: #000000;\" data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">Ask the people who neither know you nor bother your interest what your domain name means. If they don&#8217;t answer within 5 seconds then your domain name is viable.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: georgia, palatino, serif; font-size: 14pt; color: #0000ff;\" data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">Why?<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: georgia, palatino, serif; font-size: 14pt; color: #000000;\" data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">If your target audience doesn&#8217;t figure out what your domain name means they will bounce. This not only hinders SEO but also Google assumes your content doesn&#8217;t meet the searcher&#8217;s intent. Thus your post rank lower in search results.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: georgia, palatino, serif; font-size: 14pt; color: #000000;\" data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">Here are the few points to consider while buying a domain name,<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: georgia, palatino, serif; font-size: 14pt; color: #000000;\"><span style=\"color: #0000ff;\">Buy a domain with \u2018.com\u2019 extension\u00a0\u2014\u00a0<\/span>If you tell your friend about your site capitalante, your friend types <em>capitalante.com <\/em>without asking the domain extension. If you don&#8217;t buy a domain name with &#8216;.com&#8217; extension then you lose another reader and probably a paying customer.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: georgia, palatino, serif; font-size: 14pt; color: #000000;\" data-preserver-spaces=\"true\"><span style=\"color: #0000ff;\">Buy a domain name that is easy to pronounce\u00a0\u2014\u00a0<\/span>Suppose you make phone and your friend tells what&#8217;s going on. You tell your friend that you have started a blog a while. When you tell a name like &#8216;reviewcage&#8217;, your friend is likely to be able to type with ease since the words &#8216;review&#8217; and &#8216;cage&#8217; is easy to pronounce.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: georgia, palatino, serif; font-size: 14pt; color: #000000;\" data-preserver-spaces=\"true\"><span style=\"color: #0000ff;\">Avoid Hyphens in the domain name\u00a0\u2014\u00a0<\/span>It is not a good idea to buy a domain name with a hyphen when your desired domain name is already taken. Your target audience will likely visit your competitor&#8217;s site if they don&#8217;t include hyphen while typing the domain name.<\/span><\/p>\n<h4><span style=\"font-family: georgia, palatino, serif; font-size: 14pt; color: #0000ff;\" data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">Best resources to buy a domain name<\/span><\/h4>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: georgia, palatino, serif; font-size: 14pt; color: #000000;\" data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">If you have found your desired domain name with a &#8216;.com&#8217; extension, you can register your domain name from <a href=\"https:\/\/www.jdoqocy.com\/click-9270574-13346111\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener noreferrer\"><span style=\"color: #ff0000;\">Namecheap<\/span><\/a>, or <span style=\"color: #ff0000;\"><a style=\"color: #ff0000;\" href=\"https:\/\/www.anrdoezrs.net\/click-9270574-12527405\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener noreferrer\">Dynadot<\/a> <\/span>with a price of $8.88 a year.<\/span><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><span style=\"font-size: 14pt; font-family: georgia, palatino, serif; color: #ff0000;\"><a style=\"color: #ff0000;\" href=\"https:\/\/www.jdoqocy.com\/click-9270574-13346111\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener noreferrer\">Get your domain from Namecheap<\/a><\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h3><strong><span style=\"font-family: georgia, palatino, serif; font-size: 14pt; color: #0000ff;\">Step #3. Buy a Webhost<\/span><\/strong><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: georgia, palatino, serif; font-size: 14pt; color: #000000;\">A WebHost allocates a space called servers to store your content, visuals, etc. When any user types your website or blog in the URL bar your WebHost allows the user&#8217;s computer to connect with the server to deliver the desired content through the browser.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: georgia, palatino, serif; font-size: 14pt; color: #000000;\">Domain Registrars offer not only domain registrations but also Webhosting services.
