Benefits of Owning Your Domain Name

It is imperative that you have your own domain name for your website.  There are many benefits to owning your own domain name and doing so doesn’t cost an ‘arm and a leg’. Consider your domain name much the way you do your landline telephone number. When people want to contact you, they give you a call on the phone number that they have on file for you.  A domain name is much the same way. Once you have your domain name, you have a permanent means for those who want to view your website to find your website easily and from memory.

Building on this landline telephone analogy, let’s say that you decide to move.  You’ve got nosy neighbors or you get a job offer in another city.  If you decide to move to another area code, most phone companies will assign you a new telephone number. You must then go through the process of giving your new number out to everyone that you want to contact you.  They must go through the process of remembering or filing your new number for future reference.  The same goes for those website owners who don’t own their own domain names. If they decide to move their website to another hosting company, then they most likely will not be able to have the same domain name, forcing them to start all over again in their efforts to market their website.  On the other hand, those who own their own domain name have the benefit of portability – they can move their domain name with them no matter where they go, allowing them to build a recognizable brand identity for their website without being stuck with one hosting provider company that they no longer like or may have outgrown.

Owning your own domain name also gives you, your website, and/or your business:
• A professional appearance
• Easier recall of your website name by potential customers and clients
• Ability to promote not only your affiliates, but yourself, too
• Gives you a corner stone for building a sturdy online business that is recognizable on the Web.
