Do's and Don’ts of Securing a Domain Name
"Don’t Restrict Your Self to “.Com’ Extension Only
There is no doubt that ‘.com” domain extension is one of the most popular top-level domain extensions used by millions of people across the globe. Nevertheless, it is not the right choice for every website always.
For example, if you want to promote your business in a particular region, “.com” extension will not work as good a location-specific domain can. Let’s say you are running a restaurant in London, ‘.restaurant’ or ‘.london’ can be a better option for you.
Do Consider Purchasing More than One Extension
Let’s continue with the restaurant example. If the main site is registered with .london extension, you can also buy some domain names with different extensions. For example, you can register a .restaurant extension and redirect its traffic to your main web page.
You can also think of domain names such as .coffee, .pizza, .beer. to highlight your food specialties.
You may register different domain extensions and redirect them to your main site. It will help you reach to a larger audience and receive more visitors to your site."
