Why Generic Domain Names Attract More Search Engine Traffic by Abe Cherian Why Generic Domain Names Attract More Search Engine Traffic. By Abe Cherian Copyright ? 2005 Investing in a quality Generic Domain Name is the most effective and long lasting Marketing Strategy for your Internet based operation. In today's competitive online marketplace, it's increasingly difficult to get your website noticed or even seen by your prospective customers. Unless you are a large company with tens of thousands of dollars to spend on advertising and search engine optimization -- you may end up in the bottomless pit of huge search engine databases and never get the attention you deserve... Now, there is an easier way to get noticed and attract millions of search engine visitors starting from day one. The choice of your Domain Name is the most important Marketing Strategy you'll ever make to help you to rank higher on thousands of Search Engines and attract millions of visitors each year. The truth is, websites with Generic Keywords in their domain name WILL list higher (in the first 20 listings on top Search Engines) than the most optimized websites and is easier to find on top Search Engines. Before purchasing a domain name, there are many things to consider. In order to be seen by buyers when they are using a search engine to look for a product or service, it is essential that your website be one of the first 20 or so listed. One of the best ways to insure this, is to use a GENERIC domain name for your website. For Example... Using a search engine is very similar to looking up a product or service in the Yellow Pages of your local phone book - under the generic name of the product/service you will find companies that have what you are looking for. Similarly, on the internet, some search engines list websites by how closely the website name compares to the item being searched for. If your business name is ABC Corp. and you are in the business of selling 'Baby Toys' online. You'll drive thousand times more targeted traffic if your Domain names includes your "Main Key Word" on it like: TopBabyToys.com JustBabyToys.com CustomBabyToys.com AmericanBabyToys.com UltimateBabyToys.com or, ABCKidsToys.com; Instead of your brand name ABCCORP.COM. A good generic domain name can put you way ahead of your competition in the search engines, and, can literally be worth many millions of dollars. In the past, some companies believed that company recognition was the key and were willing to pay a lot of money to obtain this. The internet, however, is changing the way that knowledgeable company executives are attracting buyers. Unless you are willing to spend hundreds of millions of dollars on advertising, it is much more important to select a generic domain name that identifies the product or services you provide to users on your website. With a GENERIC domain name and a programmer who understands the importance of generic keys to search engine spiders, your website can be way above your competition on internet search engines.

During the last decade we have truly entered the information age. More and more people are becoming a part of the ever growing and wondrous community called the Internet. It was just over a decade ago that ‘Internet’ was just another new concept that a lot of people were skeptical about. Today however, it would be difficult to imagine living in the world without this amazing phenomenon. It really has enabled humans to reach new heights. Some basic terminology that you should take a look at before proceeding further: Web Page: A document that contains information created with the help of HTML. Web Site: A collection of web pages on a particular subject. HTML: Also known as Hyper Text Markup Language, this is used for the creation of web pages. Information is written in between HTML tags (<> ) to instruct the web page as to how information will be displayed. You can also put images into the web page by using this language. Some other languages like JavaScript, VB script, ASP, ASP.NET etc. are also used to display dynamic content on web pages and for performing user driver events. There are basically two main categories of web sites: Personal web site: These include websites that are about individual human beings/people. Business web site: Includes web sites that advertise and inform users about the products and services that a company is selling. This article will deal with creating personal web sites and putting them on the web. You too can make your presence felt on the web (if you have not already done so) by creating a web site. The demand and popularity of personal web sites have increased at a great rate since the start of the web. People have found web sites a great way to express themselves. A personal web site is your message center where you can upload information about friends and family and share them with the rest of the world. They can even act as a personal Blog (on-line journal). Having a personal web site on the Internet has a lot of advantages: * Gives you the freedom of self-expression. You can tell the world about your favorite hobbies, special interests, post your resume etc. for the whole world to see. * Ability to keep in touch share your life) with friend and family who are far away. * Great opportunity for making new friends and forming online communities. Now comes the question of actually creating a web site. Surprisingly it is not a difficult task at all. In fact there are a lot of web sites that will provide you with all the tools you need to create your own web site and put it on the web, and you do not even have to know HTML to make them! You do not even have to worry about buying up web space; almost all these sites will provide you with free hosting services. The only disadvantage is that they will probably put in banners (advertisements) of their sponsors on the site. For example: http://geocities.yahoo.com/ members.lycos.com These are two of the most popular web sites where you can create your own web pages. Yahoo gives you multiple options for creating web pages. It has yahoo page wizard and yahoo page builder, which are two very powerful yet simple editors for creating pages and have a point and click interface. http://www.webspawner.com/ http://maxpages.com/ www.expage.com/ These are some other sites where you can create your own web pages. You can also search on the Internet for more sites like these as well. All you need to do is register and then you can create your own web pages. However, there is one little drawback when creating a site on these sites: you do not get your own personal domain name, so the address of your web site will be something like http://www.site_where_you_registered.com/yourname Where ‘yourname’ is the name under which you registered. However, taking everything into consideration, this is the simplest way to get on the web and start expressing yourself.

There are basically two main categories of web sites: Personal web site: These include websites that are about individual human beings. Business web site: Includes web sites that advertise and inform users about the products and services that a company is selling. This article will deal with creating web sites for small businesses and putting them on the web. The Internet is one of the best ways to reach out to people and advertise your services. If you are a small business you will think twice before advertising your services in traditional forms of media like radio, TV and newspapers. However, advertising on the Internet is very cheap, for a fraction of the price that you might pay for advertising on TV you can reach out to millions of people. Your site acts as a virtual storefront through which you can sell almost any type of good or service. Having a presence on the web gives you a competitive edge and puts you on equal ground with others to compete while enabling you to reach millions of customers who browse the Internet on a daily basis. You can create your own site and you do not even need to have knowledge of programming. All you need is creativity and an eye for design. It must be mentioned that you can create your site by going to web sites that provide free hosting services. On the other hand, you will notice that these kinds of sites do not give you your own domain name. You will always get something like: http://www.somesite.com/yoursitename This simply doesn’t look very professional if you want to project an image of a serious business. Think about it yourself, would you buy from a site that does not even have its own domain name? There is lots of software out there that can help you make a web site. These types of software are basically WYSWYG editors i.e. ‘What You See Is What You Get’. They have a point and click interface and are suited for both beginners and advanced users. 1st Page 2000 –http://www.evrsoft.com/1stpage2.shtml NVU – http://www.nvu.com/ These are two of the best sites that I would recommend and have a very easy learning curve.
