Importance of a Domain Name.

HI,

There are a number of good reasons for having a domain name:
# If you ever change your web host, your domain name goes with you. Your regular visitors or customers who knew your site name as "www.whatever.com" (for example) would not have to be informed about a change of URL. They would simply type your domain name and they'd be brought to your new site.
# If you are a business, a domain name gives you credibility. Few people would be willing to do business with a company with a dubious URL. like "http://www.whatevers.com/whatever/12345."
# If you get a domain name that describes your company's business or name, people can remember the name easily and can return to your site without having to consult their documents. In fact, if you get a good name that describes your product or service, you might even get people who were trying their luck by typing "www.yourproductname.com" in their browser,
# If you want good sponsors (advertisers) for your website, a domain name is usually helpful. It tends to give your website an aura of respectability.

A good domain name should include a keyword related to your product or services. It should be easy to find and remember, and should have a strong and unique trademark so it can't be used by others, especially your competitors.

Domain name should be catchy and reflect the brand. if you choose domain name with your company or brand related keyword it is good from seo point of view also.

The first point makes a lot of sense and is good advice and the second is, as well. I do agree with the third point but if there isn't anything available that really does that for your business? Should you change the business or tweak it? Also, how much importance do the advertisers place on the domain name as opposed to content?

Domain name should represent your product and should be easy to remember.
