No doubt, that blogging is most popular online medium today for expressing your thoughts. In addition, to some, blogging is a new way of making or earning decent money online. And probably, one of the most important steps to take when you want to take your blogging into a serious level is having your own domain name. However, how do you choose a domain name? Here are at least three practical tips that you might want to consider when choosing a domain name:

Identify your niche or blog category.

Most of us started with a personal blog, where we virtually discuss anything under the sun. That is good at some point, especially where you have no intention of monetizing your blog. Otherwise, it is better to choose a niche or a particular category for your blog; because that would be your first consideration for choosing a good domain name. More so, take into account your blogging intentions here.

Choose a short and easy to remember domain name.

Follow the common sense rule: KISS (Keep It Short Stupid, err…Sweetie ^^, ) Hmmm, I should change my Domain Name then huh. Nah. That decision was based more on this blog’s niche (See No. 1 there). Other than that, a short and easy to remember domain name is much preferable. Especially something that is closely (or better yet exactly the same as) related to your blogs name or title.

Choose a good domain name registrar.

Read reviews and ask other blogger’s opinions. You might want to consider Domain Express.
