When you create a website, you will have to choose a domain name. Do you know what it is? Let’s see what domain names are and our recommendations to select the perfect one for your project.
A domain name is like the postal address of your website. It allows your site to be found on the vastness of the Internet. You need three things make a domain name: a prefix (www), a domain, and an extension (.org, .com, .net, .ca).
Since it is often easier to remember words than numbers, domain names were created to ease web browsing. It is also an essential element of your branding since it must be related to your project’s name. Furthermore, domains are unique; two businesses cannot have the same web address.

It must be related to your field of activity.
It should be your first choice!
If it sounds like something that already exists, people will be confused.
Regarding the extension, it is up to you. If your business is located in Australia, it could be relevant to use .au. If you wish to work on an international scale, more general extensions like .com or .org should be preferred.
