Search Engine Optimization

Mr Dot Com and Miss Dot Net! Congratulations!

Today, domain names, especially in Google, can help you obtain a better rank. It might not in the future, but right now, it helps.

If you don’t have a website yet or if you’re planning to launch a new one, you should, prior to buy a domain name, do a keyword research in order to find the most popular terms used to describe your business.

After that, you should consider a .com domain name or .net if the .com you want is not available. Google tends to privilege .com and .net domains. We at SEO expert have noticed Google likes .ca domains too so it’s good news for registered Canadian businesses.

When buying domains, you should really disregard .info, .biz and .name domains. If possible, try to pick a domain without dashes.

The thing you have to keep in mind is to have the right keywords in your domain: that’s the first step to proper search engine optimization.

Happy shopping everybody!
