Before going out to buy a domain name, you should take these 3 power tips into consideration:
Power Tip #1: Know your business
Your domain name is your 'business location' on the Internet. A good domain name can mean the difference between a wildly successful business and a lukewarm one. Know what your business stands for and the type of clients it caters to. Then choose a domain name that relates well with that. Include some power words into your domain name. A good book to look up power words is the book 'Words That Sell'. You can also use NameBoy.com to help you come up with some useful suggestions.
Power Tip #2: Always go with dot com
Dot com still remains the most popular option, and most people associate dot com with the Internet. Any other extension seems out of place. While dot org and dot net are viable options, always go for the dot com first unless you really have no choice. If you want ultimate credibility, then dot com is the way to go.
Power Tip #3: Always act quickly
The moment you decide on going with a domain name and it's available, register it immediately. It's uncanny how you might want a domain name, and you come back later to find it registered by someone else. In fact, I have had this happen to me a few times. Unscruplous web hosting companies may be 'spying' on what people type into their domain search box, and register names which they feel have commercial potential. So no matter what, act quickly.
