Tips Memilih Nama Domain
dikutip dari : komputek magazine
Meskipun tampaknya sederhana, memilih nama domain bisa menimbulkan masalah tersendiri. Apalagi jika nama yang terpilih terlalu sulit untuk diingat calon pengunjung situs Anda. Timbang sana, timbang sini. Jangan bingung!

Berikut adalah 4 kategori utama yang berguna yang biasa digunakan sebagai panduan dalam memilih nama domain yang baik :

1. Pendek

Sebuah nama domain yang baik harus pendek, semakin pendek semakin baik. Artinya bisa diucapkan dalam satu tarikan nafas. Baru-baru ini Art-U-Frame.com membeli nama art.com seharga US$ 450.000, merupakan harga yang sangat mahal. Namun, nama juga bisa merupakan investasi berharga, sebab nama domain dapat juga berarti identitas Anda atau perusahaan Anda. Nama yang pendek lebih baik, mengingat dua alasan: dapat diucapkan tanpa kesalahan dan mudah diingat.

2. Mudah Diingat

Tidak semua yang pendek gampang diingat. Misalnya nama domain cbcp.com yang merupakan singkatan dari Citra Bakti Computer Pratama, sangat sulit untuk mengingatnya. Memang nama cbcp.com pendek, tapi tidak semua orang mampu mengingatnya. Bila Anda IBM, gunakanlah nama tersebut sebagai nama domain Anda. Daripada cbcp, sebaiknya gunakan citracomputer.com, agar lebih mudah diingat dan tetap mengandung arti.

3. Berhubungan dengan Bisnis Utama Anda atau Nama Bisnis

Nama domain yang baik adalah nama yang bisa ditebak. Ketika ingin mengetahui alamat situs organisasi Focus on the Family, masukkan saja www.focusonthefamily.org. Nama domain core-nya adalah family.org, tapi kita bisa juga menemukannya cukup dengan memasukkan nama organisasinya saja. Sebagai contoh lainnya adalah menggunakan nama www.pramuka.com, untuk web site bagi organisasi pramuka Indonesia.

4. Sulit untuk Salah Dieja

Kriteria yang keempat adalah sulit bagi orang untuk salah mengejanya. Anda akan terkejut mengetahui begitu banyaknya nama domain yang sangat sulit dieja hanya dengan mendengarnya secara oral.

Anggaplah kebanyakan orang adalah pengeja yang buruk. Sebagian yang lain adalah pengetik yang buruk. Maka sangat dianjurkan Anda memiliki nama domain yang pendek, mudah diingat logis dan mudah dieja. Sebagai contoh: rosevilleelectric.com. Nama ini sesuai dengan kriteria 3, karena memang menggambarkan perusahaan elektronik di Roseville, California. Tapi huruf "e" dobel di tengah nama, akan membuat bingung banyak orang.

Tapi, bagaimana yang telah kehilangan akal karena beberapa nama bagus telah dimiliki orang lain diperlukan kiat-kiat kreatif tersendiri diantaranya mengkombinasikan kata d engan akhiran-akhiran sehingga menjadi sebuah rangkaian yang tidak kalah bagus. Tim
