One of the most important decisions to make is what domain name you will have. In other words, what address will you want people to type in to go to your site. For example: (www.MarkAgan.com). The most popular domains are dot-com names (.com). Also popular are (.net), (.org), plus others including (.info), (.biz) and (.us).

Unless you are looking for a very unique name, most domain names with the dot-com tag at the end are already claimed. This is where creativity may be required to find ways to make your domain name unique.

Registering a domain name works essentially like a lease, granting you permission to use the name as long as you maintain the annual fee to keep it registered.

A good domain name should be short, but still reflect your website; you want your visitors to remember their way back. Once you have your domain name registered, it is wise to find creative ways to advertise your new website. The more people see your domain name, the better chance they will remember it.

mIt is also wise to purchase your domain name with more than one ending such as m(MarkAgan.com, MarkAgan.net, and MarkAgan.org).

mThis is a common practice among businesses and helps ensure that if someone mtypes in the wrong extension at the end, they will still get to your site.
