First thing to do when you want to start a reseller hosting business, is to choose a domain name. Choosing a domain name is the most important step in setting up your reseller hosting business, as it would be really hard to switch to a different domain name later on.
From our experience, the best reseller hosting domain name is a domain which satisfies the following conditions:
- Short and Easy to remember: Your reseller hosting domain names should be easy, short to remember, and should not cause any misspellings.
- Register additional extensions for your domain: Sometimes, it is useful to register the .net, .org , .info versions of your domain name, in addition to the .com version. The idea is to safeguard the goodwill your domain commands.
- Register related domain names: Let’s say you operate a company called Anyname Hosting, you might want to register anynamehosting.com , anyname.com, anynamewebhosting.com, etc. If you do this early in your business’ lifecycle, you can save a lot of litigation money when you have grown into a large business.
- Register a catchy domain name: A catchy domain name intrigues people and invites them to visit your reseller hosting website. For example, flyingball.com makes visitors think about how a ball could fly, and they enter your website into their browser, because they want to know how a ball could fly.
- Brandable: If you are marketing a product or supporting a cause, then your domain name should be brandable. Brandable means that it should stick into the heads of the people who see it. A brandable domain name should also reflect your website’s identity, i.e. resellerhosting.com should sell reseller hosting, not light bulbs!
- Do not use dashes or numbers: Using these characters may confuse your clients and make your reseller hosting domain name harder for them to remember.
Ideally, all of the above points should apply for your domain name. However, not all of them will apply most of the time. Just make sure your reseller hosting domain name includes the word “host”, “webhost”, “hosting” , or “webhosting”, that will do the trick, and help you fare better with search result rankings as well (courtixhosting.com , for example).
That’s all for today, happy reseller hosting domain shopping.
We hope this reseller hosting domain shopping article is helpful. Our next reseller hosting article will discuss choosing the best reseller hosting plan to start your hosting business and grow.
