Having the right domain name, or domain names, can bring more traffic to your site. Why more than one domain name? One domain is all you need to set up a website. But with more domains directing to your site, you can have these additional benefits: - Bring site visitors who type variations of your domain name - Acquire traffic that might otherwise go to your competition - Harness the marketing power of keyword domains Your primary domain name If it's feasible, use your business or brand name in your primary domain. People will remember it and associate it with your business. Also consider the following factors when choosing your primary domain. Domain name extensions Should your primary domain end with .com, .net, or .biz, or with a country-specific extension such as .ca or .co.uk? If your website is aimed at people in a specific country, having a country-specific domain can help: - Site visitors will recognize right away that the business has a presence in the country of the extension. They may therefore be more comfortable buying from you. - Some country-specific search results include sites with the relevant country-specific domain extension even if the site isn't hosted in that country.
