So, you want to buy some new domains. It may seem simple enough to choose
one that you like and go. But, some folks take some basic things in to
consideration when purchasing one:

*       Branded vs Keyword-Rich - It’s always tricky to figure out whether
to get a domain name that can be branded (e.g. Dosh Dosh) or one that’s
keyword-rich (Just Make Money Online). 

*       com vs .net vs. others - Which one do you go for? Most folks say
that having a .com is still the best way to go. Most people think of
websites as .coms still. But, there are still non-.com-sites that have also
gained huge popularity, like Problogger.net. 

*       With or without hyphens? - There are different points of view when
it comes to this issue. Is it better to get just-make-money-online.com or
justmakemoneyonline.com? To me, it depends. If it’ll visually help to
separate the words (or the alternatives are not available), then I think
hyphens are okay. 

*       How long is too long? - When it comes to domain names, the shorter
it is, the better. But, most good short domains have already been taken. So,
it’s not always possible to get them. 

*       To localise or not to localise? - You know those domain names that
have .uk (for Britain), .au (for Australia), etc.? Is it good to get them?
If you think you’re going to serve primarily local audience, yes. Otherwise,
if you’re trying to serve a more global market, then you’re still better off
with a .com.
