Domains: How Do You Choose?

March 24, 2012 By weborize Leave a Comment

DomainsConfused about selecting a domain? Consider that you want more than one.

Just because you want your name and/or your business name recognizable, neither of these may convey what you actually do to the search engines – a key factor.  So consider using a domain that does just exactly that for your main domain and hosting (for the search engines) and then forward (and use) other domains (your name and/or your business name) for marketing and name recognition.

Tips for domain selection:

  1. Pick more than one (see above)
  2. Never use hyphens or combinations of numbers and letters that are difficult to convey – remember you’ll be saying this over and over again – don’t make it difficult for you or them
  3. Short is almost always better than long
  4. Easy to remember is good too

Do you want to buy a domain?  Weborization is a domain reseller through Weborization.net.

Domain, hosting . . . what does it all mean?

January 10, 2012 By weborize Leave a Comment

HouseThink of your website like you would a piece of property and it becomes very simple:

  • The domain is like the street address
  • The hosting is like the land on which your home sits
  • And the website (or files themselves) are like the property improvements, i.e. the house, garage, etc.

We recommend Weborization,net* for domain registrations.  For hosting, we recommend WP Engine* unless your budget requires something lighter – in which case SiteGround* is recommended.

* Weborization earns an affiliate commission from our recommendations, but that’s not why we recommend these services.  We use them ourselves and strongly believe in them.

Do you have a project in mind…perhaps a new product/service or a revamp of something already in existence?

Maybe you’d be interested in a review of your current site.
