A domain name is the address people type into their browser to visit your website—like www.yourbusiness.com. Think of it as your website’s street address on the internet. Without a domain, users would have to enter a long string of numbers (your site’s IP address), which isn’t practical or memorable. A strong, simple domain name gives your business credibility and makes it easier for customers to find and remember you.
When you register a domain, you’re securing that name for your online presence. It’s not a one-time purchase—you rent it yearly, and as long as you renew it, it remains yours. Most domains cost around $10–$20 per year. If you ever wonder, “Can I change my domain name later?”, the answer is yes. You can register a new one anytime and redirect visitors from your old domain to the new one, so no traffic is lost.
Each domain has two parts: the name (like creativezeth) and the extension (like .com, .net, .org). The most common and trusted extension is .com, but there are hundreds of creative options such as .design, .studio, .co, and .io. These can help your brand stand out or better represent your niche. For instance, a design agency might use .design, while a tech company might choose .io.
Choosing the right domain name is an important step. Keep it short, easy to spell, and aligned with your brand. Avoid numbers or hyphens if possible, and try to use keywords that describe your business or industry. If your exact name isn’t available, you can add small variations—like “get,” “try,” or “official”—to still capture your brand identity. For example, if creativezeth.com was taken, getcreativezeth.com could work just as well.
Finally, your domain is also a key piece of your brand’s professionalism. It connects to more than just your website—it can power branded emails like info@yourbusiness.com and influence your appearance in search results. Choosing a domain name early helps you secure your brand identity before someone else registers it, ensuring consistency across your website, marketing, and social platforms.
