The first important step for starting your own Internet Business is to get your own domain name.

To find a “Killer Domain Name” can be the difference between a successful business and a failed one! This can make or break your business.

A domain name is like a street adress at the Internet and has the functionality to represent a recognizable name that allow Internet users to easily find and communicate with you as the website owner. Your customers will associate your domain name with your product or service.

Note: Don’t use free domain names! To start your own blog (website) register a top level domain which ends with - “.Com”, to have full control about it.

Here are 8 tips to find a “Killer Domain Name” for your online business

1. Select a name that is easy to spell and pronounce.
2. Several marks are not allowed such as: colons, exclamation points and any kind of slashes. Same for spaces, so that your domain name is - one word!
3. Choose a short domain name - everyone hates long domains because they are not easy to type and difficult to remember.
4. Think about catchy names like: Ebay, Amazon and Google!
5. BEWARE OF TRADEMARKS! Let’s say you are creating a website about “Porsche”. You should keep in mind that you can’t use the word “Porsche” in your domain name without getting trouble!. Be careful that your domain name is not in violation of trademarks or copyrights.
6. To have a -”.com” top level domain is a MUST for every successful Internet Business!
7. Include your top keyword or phrase in your domain name.
8. You can also use your full name as your domain name, that will spread your name over the Internet.

When you create your domain name that represents your business, look that it is short, brandable and an easy to remember one.

After creating you have to register your killer domain. You can search on your own at all the search engines for a cheap domain provider or you can choose one, most elite marketers are using for their successful Internet Business. I highly recommend to you:

• HOSTGATOR

Every vendor has a free tool with which you can check if the domain you want is free or not. You can also type, your created domain name, in the adress box of your bro ad domain exists.

Next you have to buy some web space. This will be tha place on a server where you can place all your content to the Internet such as: text, images and video etc. You can buy this web space (webhosting) from the same provider where you registered your domain name.

Note: Your web space should include:

• Web space 1 GB or higher (best is unlimited)
• Bandwith 75 GB or higher (best is unlimited)
• 24 x 7 hours support
• An admin contro panel
• Scripts like:PHP 5, CGI
• MySQL database 5 or higher (best is unlimited)

As you own your domain name and some web space, you can start creating your blog (website) about your business.
