What's in a (Domain) Name?
There
is a lot of thought that goes into purchasing a domain name, from the type, to
the length, and even to its name. Once you decide on a domain name, use
HosTek.com free
Domain Search to validate the name.
The name of your domain does not have to match the name of your business. However, it's an excellent idea to have the name included, if at all possible, because most people trying to find your site will put a dot com after the name of your business. Using your business name makes it simple and easy for interested people to remember.
Aliases help users get to where they want to go even if they misspell or forget if the domain name is singular or plural. These aliases are purchased domains that take a user to the same content as the main website. For example, browsing to saginawscholarships.org or saginawscholarship.org will bring up the same website content.
It's important to make sure you contact the registration maintainer of your domain when you purchase domains. This is so the maintainer is knowledgeable about all of your domain names and can make sure all aliases point to the main site. Just because you purchase a new domain doesn’t mean it will be an alias, rather, it will be a loss of money if the only content a visitor sees is "Page Not Found".
