Why and how to chose a domain name.

Domain names are web addresses, such as networkmarketfacts.com , that is linked to an IP address (which represents a physical point or central location on the Internet). These names are restricted to the ASCII letters a through z and are also case sensitive. They consist also of the digits 0 through 9,and the hyphen,(-) with some other restrictions in terms of name length and position of hyphens. When someone types that name into a web browser, the requested Web page displays.

Why you should create a Unique Name for your Web Address?

When I first started in network marketing I tried the phone, email, flyer's, business cards and many other sales and communication methods to try and capture leads. They worked somewhat but they were not very successful. In fact they were very discouraging. The results just did not match the effort. As I grew in knowledge about the business model I realize that I needed my own central location for my prospects. I needed a store with my name on it in bold prints "Network Marketing Facts" . So for this I needed a website.

I was introduced to companies that were offering websites along with their business opportunities. That was awesome I could finally have my own store, that is my own website. Unfortunately not one with my own name. These companies gave you their own domain names which were usually part of their business name and were made up from the businesses own domain name with an extension to include your information usually your account number and or login Id, which made the names very long and hard to remember like this sentence. These website addresses are in reality sub domain names from the parent company. To demonstrate, If I gave you a name from my website it Say network marketing business opportunities. Your website domain would look like this.

Wow! imaging putting that on your business card. Or better yet try giving it to somebody over the phone. Hope you got the point.

The idea of having your own website and address was great. The execution however was very poor. What good is a website address that you can not remember? Even worst when given to prospective clients they may misspell it and end up going to the wrong site. Most times to the website of your competitors. That's not good for your business.

This great spin on doing network marketing business online was going nowhere. However the introduction of companies like Godaddy.com offering individuals their own personalized domain names has immensely improve ones chances of success at network marketing online. For a small yearly fee in most cases you can get a name with your own twist about the business you are working with. You can use that domain name to redirect your prospects to the link given by your parent company. That works somewhat but I recommend you create a website. Build at least one good page that you can use as a landing page or home page for your clients. Use this page to brand and introduce yourself and the business before sending them to the parent company. This is much more successful. Customers like to know who they are doing business with. Remember network marketing is about building relationships.

How to create a Unique Name for your Web Address.

The name must be short and easy to remember. It should describe in some way the business it represents. My method is to write out a sentence describing my website. I usually try to put it in a question format. For example: 'Where can I find network marketing facts online'. That sentence describes my entire website concept. Then I choose the part of the sentence that gives me the most information about my site. Network marketing facts Unfortunately it was already taken. I had other options but I wanted it more precise and shorter so I edited it and came up with www.networkmarketfacts.com .

There are many other ways to choose a domain name. The key is to make one that short and one that describes your site theme in some way. Companies like Site Build It have come up with a more thorough method to choose a domain name but the idea is the similar. They concentrate more on using keywords and content to brainstorm for the best name for your business. Working with Site Build It has proved to me that I am on the right tract to success at network marketing online. I recommend SBI, short for Site Build It, to everyone interested in making a profitable website online.

Creating a unique domain name for your business and registering it is necessary for your business success. Your domain name is what differentiates you from your competition. Something to remember is that ever important name factor. If we did not have unique names, can you imagine what a mess that would be? Have you ever been in a gathering, for example a classroom or job meeting with two or three people with the same name?

To be successful on the internet you need your own website with your own address. You must be unique . To do that you need your own domain name.
