Domain names are how we call websites, in much
the same way that we call people by their names.
It's important to realize that
while people often have identification numbers but always have names,
websites always have a number called an IP address to identify them,
while they often have domain names as well.
Why Does My Site Need a Domain Name?
It's easier for people to remember names than
numbers. I can't prove it, it just seems like one of those things
you take for granted. Many feel that having their own domain name
is an expense that can wait or that it takes more knowledge than
you posess. Neither of these are valid.
Let me explain. First of all the cost of getting
a domain name is only Rs.390/$7.50 per year. That breaks down to
less than Rs.50/$1.00 per month. And it is tax deductable.
Secondly, the process of obtaining your own
Domain is extremely simple. The hardest part is deciding what to
call yourself. (See "How Do I Choose a Name?" below.)
We at Candidinfo.com will set you up by just filling out a short
form ( Click

or by demand draft.
Why Have My Own Domain?
1) The Number One reason is to add credibility
to your business. When you have a web site you ARE a business
owner. Very few people will ever view your Internet Business as
serious without your willingness to take this step to present yourself
as a professional. It all boils down to this: "If you are not
willing to invest Rs.390/$7.5 in your own business, How serious
can you really be?"
2) Money - Increased Sales:
In reality this is merely a result of increased credibility. Your
Internet buyer does not know if you are a large corporation or a
housewife working out of a closet in flannel pajamas. What you offer
and how it is presented to a buyer IS what makes you successsful
on the Internet. The buyers perceived impression of your company
can ONLY be viewed as professional when you have your Own Domain.
3) Control - When you
have your Own Domain, YOU are the Master. Should you decide to change
web hosts, it's a simple transition. Your URL (Web address will
not change). You are no longer required to post someone else's advertising
on your site. Search Engines that were not willing to index your
Free Page will now accept your listing readily. You can set up email
addresses such as webmaster@yourdomain.com, sales@yourdomain.com,
or editor@yourdomain.com. Suddenly your company takes on a more
professional and Larger appearance.
How Do I Choose a Good Name For My Site?
This is the heart of the matter. I think that
the factors that go into choosing the right domain name for your
site include:
- available
- meaningful
- easy to remember
- hard to misspell
Your Internet Address
(Domain Name) should reflect what you and your web site are all
about. This is decidedly the most difficult decision you have to
make. Begin by evaluating what you are marketing on your web site.
Secondly create a list of possible URLs. Try to keep it as simple
as possible or easy to remember. Even a long name is OK, if it reflects
your business or what you are trying to present. (For example: A
name
such as learntoreadandwrite.com is a long name but easy to remember
and certainly would explain what your site is all about.)
The next step is to check on availabilty. If
you think you have come up with the one and only perfect name for
your web site, you may find that it has already been taken. Be prepared
with several acceptable possibilities then check the avaliability
at our domain registration section by visiting at http://candidinfo.com/web-hosting/domain-name-registration.asp.
Our whois database will give you up to the minute availability of
your desired URL.
From this point, it is just a matter of minutes
and you will be able to establish yourself as a Professional Internet
Business by using our online registration form. If you are doing
the online registration or if you have someone else do it for you,
be sure that you are listed as the administrative contact. Doing
so will give you the control over your site.
In Summary:
The creation of a Professional Image on the
Internet can only be accomplished by obtaining your Own Domain.
The willingness to Invest a mere Rs.390/$8 in your Internet future
can add credibility and the impression of being around for the long
haul.
Don't allow the time and effort you have put
into your web pages get sucked into the blackhole of cyberspace.
