Hunts Marketing

Selecting the right domain name is very important. It is always a good idea to take your time and choose a domain name that is a reflection of your business or organisation. A lot of people select a domain name which is the same as their business name or a product or service they provide.

 

The domain name constitutes a part of your web site address eg: www.mybusiness.com , where “mybusiness” is the domain “name”. The “www” part stands for “world wide web” and the .com is the domain name “extension” There are many domain name extensions available such as .com | .com.au | .net and so on.

Extensions such as .gov and .edu are reserved for government and educational departments. The .com.au extension is reserved for registered Australian businesses only and is most common for Australian web sites. To register a [.com.au] extension you must be an Australian registered company, or business, and must meet one of the following criteria:

An exact match of the business’ name or trademark
An abbreviation of the business’ name or trademark
An acronym of the business’ name or trademark
Product that the business manufactures or sells
A program that the business administers
An activity that your business facilitates, teaches or trains
A service that your business provides
A venue that the business operates
A profession that is practiced by the business’ employees or members
An event that your business organises or sponsors
Place names in Australia are disallowed as domain names

Anyone, anywhere in the world can register a .com domain name. Domain names can be up to 67 characters long (63 for .com.au) and can contain dashes to separate words but cannot have blank spaces between words. If search engines will be a dominant marketing strategy for your site, you may want to consider the use of “keywords” in your domain name.

Your domain name will also be your email address eg: mail@mydomainname.com

The first step is to decide on an appropriate domain name for your new website and then check to make sure it is available, someone may have already registered the domain name you want.
