Your domain name is the center of your Internet identity. It must be a good representation of you and your business. How do you go about choosing the right name for you?

Keep it Short
Although you can now register a name with up to 63 characters, try to keep in mind that people need to be able to remember it. It also needs to be easy to it into a web browser. Register the shortest name that your customers and visitors will associate with your Website. The general rule of thumb is, keep it under ten characters if possible. (Not including the suffix.) If possible, it should be your business name.

You can order your hosting package at the same time you register your domain!
