Shall we start now?

Let’s get started!

Myth 1 – It’s easy to own a domain name

The truth is, no one can own a domain name. You merely rent a domain name as determined by the annual renewal notices you receive. You pay a registrar that registers the domain with ICANN or any entity to whom ICANN, which acronyms – The Internet Corporation for Assigned Names and Numbers, has assigned the responsibility for a particular TLD.

Even when you are renting a domain, you don’t have enough right to use it.

Myth 2 – Domain name should hold keyword

If you are planning to register a domain name, it could be either you have a new business or your strategy is the latest. In case if you have started keyword research, but your website is not live yet – in this case, your keyword research efforts would never be possible. Basically, here you don’t know about your keywords. Even if you have enough confidence in your keywords, they keep on changing with the trends. Undoubtedly, there is the SEO benefit in placing keywords in a domain name, but your targeted keyword might change with time – what will you do then? Hence, it’s better to not stick to such beliefs.

Myth 3 – You should not prefer .com

In a few regions, the “.co” extension is preferred compared to the “.co.**” format. However, .co tends to be considered as .com by users that choose to stick with the more common format. It is even possible to choose names using specific TLDs like join.in or buy.in. If you are planning to register a domain for a non-profit, it is better to choose .org instead of any other extension. Also, you need to consider whether a domain is worth the lost traffic if you don’t register with “.com”.

However, “.design” is a perfect extension for designers, and “.io” is suitable for an application or website that target developers – Joke apart, though! It is suggested to register with .com and if you can’t, it is necessary to consider with whom you are competing on the search engine result page.
