			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Domains are a pain to pick, it always seems that the good ones are taken. However here are some great tips I have for creating a domain that is right for you.</p>
<ul>
<li>Be creative</li>
<li>Keep it relevant</li>
<li>.com it!</li>
</ul>
<p><strong>Be Creative</strong></p>
<p>Coming up with a domain is hard work, but you don&#8217;t need to limit yourself to obvious words. Google.com is (believe it or not) a typo, it was going to be registered as <a href="http://hubpages.com/hub/Google---The-160-billion-typo-error">Googol</a>. Try and avoid common domains words (such as design, games and free) as this could lead to greater composition in your rankings.</p>
<p><strong>Keep it relevant</strong></p>
<p>If you website is about web hosting, make sure you have something about hosting in the name. Don&#8217;t what ever you do call it something completely irrelevant such as newtech or easypeazy, as this could making initial rankings hard to come by.</p>
<p><strong>.com it!</strong></p>
<p>If you have ever saw an average user at work they never seems to notice that you can have different extensions to a domain. In fact I was once telling something about a website (which ending in the .co.uk tld) and when they went to type it in they put sitename.co.uk.com. It could be that I work with tech-tards alot, but it&#8217;s safe to assume that if you can&#8217;t get your domain as a .com, it&#8217;s not worth the time.</p>
<p>And don&#8217;t forget, you can easily register your domain (in a large variety of different tlds) with XDnet so you can easily manage it within our client panel.</p>
<p>Check if your <a title="XDnet Domain Checker - Register Yours Today" href="http://xdnet.co.uk/clients/domainchecker.php">domain is available</a> and get registering!</p>
<p><em><strong>Sssh!</strong></em> Using the secret XDnet blog promo code <strong>blogdomain215</strong> get up to <strong>20%+ off your domain</strong> order!</p>
