What's
Cool in Domain Names? Your choice
of domain names is as wide and as fresh as your imagination
or as near as your dog, your street, or your own name! Here are
some of the types of names being registered: Full names Family names Pet names Team or
club names Names of
books, poetry, music, movies, literature or art that people
have created or plan to create Names that
will be used for marketing a business in order to track advertising
results. For example, a farmer named Joe can register an everyday
domain name such as joefarmer.com. He can also register a special
domain name, such as www.myfarmweb.com. When Joe buys print
advertising, he can use "myfarmweb" as the contact
web address in the ad and point this URL at his regular farm
website. He can then track the number of "hits" to
his website generated by that particular ad. Toll-free
phone numbers (this is very popular in Asian countries, because
Asian characters cannot be registered in the global data base) Names that
protect a brand. People are registering the .com, .net, .org,
.info and .biz domain names for their companies, in order to
stop cybersquatters from taking advantage of their success. Back |
