Domain name tips and hints

Some useful advice to get you started on the path to picking a great Domain Name that suits your business.

Keep your domain name short

A short domain name is important because it:

  • is easier to incorporate into logos and marketing
  • makes it easier to spell and find for your customers
  • makes it easier for you to spell to customers over the phone
  • makes a better brand
  • is more easily recognisable

Keep it relevant

It's best if your domain name can be derived from your company name. However, in your search for a domain name, don't give up if you can't find a domain that matches your exact business name.

Find functional names that describe your uniqueness and that express an emotion or attitude.

Watch out for trademarks

Trademark laws are designed to distinguish the goods and services of one trader from those of another.

If the holder of a similar domain name to yours trademarks their combination, it could severely damage your brand and threaten your domain name. Be sure to check with IP Australia before registering a domain.

Avoid ambiguity

Humans understand word meaning with a level of sophistication that search engines such as Google don’t have. Avoid clever phrases unless they are really on target and completely unambiguous.

If you break your domain name down to just its keywords, will it 100% accurately represent the topic of your site?
