Choosing an SEO Friendly Domain Name That The Search Engines Will Love

Very often website designers are so focused on the appearance of the site for humans that many opportunities to optimize the site for the search engines are overlooked until the site is completed.

For your website search engine optimization to be truly effective, you need to begin in the website planning stage to generate the best results from your listing on the directories and search engines.

When you decide to create an online presence, the purpose of the site is where you need to focus when selecting a domain name, because this is your primary marketing tool.

Think about your site visitors;
1. WHO are they
2. WHAT do they want
3. WHY should they visit?
4. HOW will they benefit?
5. WHERE are they going after the landing page?

Answer those questions throughout the design of your website and incorporate a specific keyword from them in your domain name. If "music" is your keyword, your domain name could be www.worldwidemusic.com.

Research every related term to your audience, a specific group within your audience, their interest, or the product or service. Take the top ten related search terms and create your domain name from them.

Pay close attention to the length and spelling of your domain name, unless you want to use hyphens; certain phrases sound great like: music circle. But as www.musiccircle.com, the predominance of the letter C is a problem, opening the door for your site to lose visitors to the site www.musicircle.com.

Extend the power of your keywords to include your file names, for example: www.worldwidemusic.com/music_Brazil.html

Domain names can be a huge advantage or a huge mistake. Researching the best name for your Business is always the first priority... but a little SEO friendliness never hurt nobody!
