Domain Names

April 6th, 2009

I have just had a big domain name rush and I think its because keywords are so competitive. I have just gone and registered a bunch that I thought would assist me in gaining some valuable search engine ranking.

The domain editundo.com has been unused for about 5 years now. I have been offered money for the domain I think it fits into the equation of a brilliant domain.
1. It is short and sweet
2. Easy to remember
3. I think if someone heard it on a radio or television they would remember.
4. It fits in with my industry as I am always hitting on edit undo in webbased programs.
5. It is a .com which is the most popular extension worlwide and is typed into browsers by default. Don’t get me wrong .com.au is valuable. If you saw a friend on the street if your business was Edit Undo 95% would guess editundo.com.au Only 4% would say editundo.com and 1% would say editundo.net.au.

If you are appealing to an international audience a .com is necessity.

Traditional and Online Methods

Business Owners now is not the time to abandon your website. The abandoned website is one that has been built and still has the frames instilled from a designer setting up your business 10 years ago or has a animated graphic of flash intro with click here. Believe me I had to revamp a website  just the other day on a resort website. My client had his tariffs dated back in 2006. The only thing that kickstarted him was a visit from a sales rep deploying the new online resort management technology (which was in the high end budget reigns). On the same day another resort I was working with locally on the Sunshine Coast rang me to let me know they are going ahead with the highend budget quotation system. The same guy has been calling and appointment setting with all local resorts here.  After a week or so later with a few tweaks to his website designing an online quote form and implementing keyword optimisation and  advertising online in Google Maps. All under $500.  I was out shopping at Woolies and was delighted to hear his resort has been booked out for the last two weekends.  This only goes to show that it is crucial to the success of your online business to keep your website interactive.  Fresh content is the key to repeat user traffic as well as new visitors.  Innovative ideas, specials, bonuses and create action to phone and not email. Not only will this appeal to your visitors entering your website but Google is monitoring the activity with your site.

I am going to get straight to the point and start to discuss some much need stuff that has been on my mind since the new year. During the Christmas break I was reading a book written by Stephen Cover  ” the 8th habit” I read the first two chapters then business resumed I found many helpful motivating techniques. Either it was one direction to lead to effectiveness or the other to lead to straight jacket and before reading this I believe I was heading for the straight jacket. Anyway, I will leave this book behind if I pick it up again during my life I will bring to the forefront the things that grabbed my attention . As soon as worked resumed my phone was running hot with new businesses reaching out for there website and wanted some information on Google advertising. For the first two weeks was out on the field driving to the Gold Coast to see a very reputable business who I have now been working with for over two months. Fast payer, good direct communication and lots of work to be done. I like this client already.
