Some Tips



Never underestimate the power or importance of a good domain name. It should be easy to say, spell and remember. This is your front door to the world, so the address has to be a snap to pass around by word of mouth. I can work with you through this process to help you secure a good domain name.

If you already have a domain name or intend to register your own, here's some friendly advice. Please make sure you have total control over that domain name. This means that your email address has to be current with the registrar, or company, you registered with. Also of importance is your username and password to manage this domain at the company where you registered the name. If you lose this username and password, there is a long and involved process to recover this information and no one will be a happy camper throughout that ordeal.

Unfortunately I have been involved in too many situations where the registrant, or domain name owner's, email address was no longer accessible, or the username and password information had been lost for being able to change vital information for the domain name (for example, trying to move it to another server).

I have three simple steps to make sure you do not suffer this heartbreak and frustration (because your site could be down for weeks on end):

  • Register your site with a reputable company (GoDaddy, Register.com, etc.)
  • If your email address changes, make sure you update your email address on your domain name as soon as possible
  • Keep your login details for managing your domain name in a safe place

All too often this information is lost because many years can pass by before you need to change that information. If you keep it in a safe place, like wherever you keep your tax records, you'll have the information you need to make the changes when you need to do it, and everyone will be all smiles.
