5 Essential Tips to find and select SEO-friendly Domain Name in India.

A Website should be comprised of many attributes but the Domain Name is the main factor. While keeping a domain name you should first give the due importance to SEO so that it improves the website’s search engine ranking. If you keep an improper domain name which doesn’t relate to the website it will give a wrong impact on your website or blog for a long run. There are many who keep their personal name as their domain name which is not recommended but it's an exception if you are a celebrity or a well-known person. 

Now I understand that there are many domain names that are already taken but there is an option of buying a domain name where you may have to pay hundreds or thousands of dollars if you want to.

While selecting a domain name you should go for .com domain extension because it is good for SEO and branding but if you want your website to target more of Indian Traffic then you should go for .in domain extension. For example, Cloud.in is easy to remember and easy to pronounce but if you keep a name like thisisanimportantwebsite.in then people won’t take your website seriously so you should choose a domain name which relates to your website and should be an appropriate domain name. 

 

The following are tips and advice for choosing an SEO friendly domain for your website:-

Original yet Unique:-

You have to be super creative while choosing the name for your blog because it’s the first thing your viewers or your audience see so it should resemble your website, it should be easy to pronounce, easy to remember, catchy name and many more. When your domain name itself is creating a buzz and attracting viewers then you have done a wonderful job. You need to keep your viewers coming back again to your website or blog so the domain should be in such a way that it is memorable.

Short and Crisp:-

A long domain name will bore your potential viewers or they might forget the second they read the domain name. Make sure that the domain name is simple and short by targeting to keep the domain up to 10 characters which will ultimately make it easy to remember, understand and convenient to type.

Hyphens not allowed:-

A domain name that includes Hyphen is expected not to be an SEO friendly name. The Domain Name that includes a Hyphen is supposedly observed to be spam website because they are available at low prices. But even though it is difficult to type a name with punctuation marks and it is also more difficult to remember a domain name with hyphens. So it is better that you avoid using hyphens in the domain name because that will affect the website traffic rate.

Branding:-

If you are focusing more on SEO then you should use your brand name for your domain name. There are many who avoid using their brand name which adversely affects your website SEO. Whatever service or product you will be rendering will be according to your brand so selling stuff on your website with your brand name will be added advantage for your business and also for SEO purpose. If you do this then your domain name will be your marketing component. A brand name often derives uniqueness and its own identity thus when you put your brand name as your domain name then you will be creating an active user followers.

Website extension:-

As discussed earlier that choosing a .com extension is recommended because it is global and it is most common extension used thus it makes it easily recognizable by the users. But if your website traffic target is limited to the specific countries then you should use extension according to the country domain level. In India, the domain name extension most commonly used is .in.

Keywords:-

Jason L Bauman, SEO Associate at Trinity Insight said that the best option is to select a company branded domain is to determine the targeted keywords that will be suitable to the service or the industry you are into. Ubersuggest is a tool that can be used to look for suitable terms from your industry that will give you an idea to keep the domain name. 

Search Engine Optimization is often used gaining traffic from the targeted users so when your website name is not visible to the preferred audience then it is a waste of the Internet space. Therefore, it is very essential to keep a name that is SEO friendly so that it fulfills the aim and goals that your website targets.

Key Factors to Consider Before Buying a Web Hosting Service 2018.

Choosing a domain name is crucial part as it soon becomes your brand name if it was catchy, then how about hosting? Web hosting industries growing like anything as peoples want a smart and time-saving technology to fulfill every need. In 2018 finding hosting service without any paperwork may cost you a lot with no gain. Can you choose any hosting that is cheap with some limited features? Absolutely No!

Choosing the web hosting carefully is highly required in this promotional era. The reason why I mentioned the word ‘promotional era’ is, web hosting service providers may try to attract you by providing hosting at cheap price with no required features or with very limited features as a part of their service promotions. So, before buying a hosting for your dream website, these are the essential things you should keep in mind.

What Should I check Before Buying Web Hosting?

1.     Price: 

Price is the first thing comes to our mind while buying anything and same with the hosting. But buying the hosting because you are getting it cheap is not really a good idea. Remember you get what you pay for. Important things like non-outsourced support and uptime cannot be bought for mere $2 per month. The better idea is to compare the features along with price while buying.

2.     Uptime Score:

24 x 7 operating web hosting is really essential if you want to maintain your website without any server issues. 99.8% and above uptime is recommended to avoid further complications and you can get that only with a powerful server and stable network connections. So it is required to have a deep look at the uptime score before choosing a web hosting.

3.     Renewal Cost:

Wonder how cheap the web hosting is? Here is the logic. Most of the web hosting service providers increase the cost that you cannot actually bear for renewal. However, you can choose another hosting. You can get the shared hosting for less than $10/mo which is actually buyable for new websites but don’t forget to check Terms of Service as the providers can manipulate you.

4.     Tech Specs: 

Depending on the type of your website, you have to choose the web hosting, if you want to host an e-commerce website or the blog contains rich content, images, and videos, you have to go with a better hosting package rather buying cheap hosting and creating problems for yourself. A Disk space, Ram, and Processing Space will be provided only if you pay enough bucks

5.     Add-ons:

Why you are choosing the specific web hosting? Are they providing any special features or add-ons? You must check that the hosting service providers are providing hosting space for multiple domains as you can buy multiple domains because of their cheap price but what you are going to do without a good hosting space?

6.     Hosting Control Panel:

Everyone cannot handle a hosting control panel because of not having enough knowledge on technical issues. So, it is better to choose easy-to-use hosting control panel. If you are not able to choose a user-friendly control panel, you have to contact a technical support team of hosting provider for basic issues who may not respond many times to your problem

7.     Professional Email:

If you are maintaining an online website for your business or if you want to make your website a brand, a professional email id is required. Almost all web hosting service providers provide a professional email hosting for your business. Though you have many ways to get professional email id, buying it along with web hosting is a good idea

8.     Refund Policies:

Knowing the refund policies before buying the web hosting is essential. Many hosting providers will offer a trial period and that’s really good but they may charge really high when you cancel the account and you have no option other than paying them. So, be careful while opting for a trial period from a specific provider. Check the refund policies, if you didn’t find anything similar to their website, you can contact support team to get clear details on the refund policies. A few hosting companies provide the pro-rated refund and offer a money back guarantee which would be a better option.

 

9.     Site Backup:

 it’s a mini heart attack when you came to know your website got hacked by replacing index.php file or your database destroyed. So, your hosting provider must be able to take backup regularly and give it to you when required, in no time. Site backup should be done easily through your control panel and for that, you have to select the hosting company who are providing automatic backup and so you can managing it by yourself

10.  24 x 7 Live Support:

You can make a call to the web hosting providers when you have an issue with your hosting, but live chat is really helpful when your calls are not getting connected. Also, live chat will help you to solve the issue step-by-step by the instructions. People who cannot manage to talk on a call can use this option to get their problem solved. Along with that your hosting provider must have the facility of remote desktop access which is really fast with an end to end solution instantly.
