Domain names
A domain name is the Internet address that people will use to visit your web site. Selecting a domain name is perhaps the most important step in the entire process of website building.
Key Issues
Domain names are unique identifiers on the Net. You need to get a domain name if you're serious about making your business successful. Having your own domain instead of an extension of someone else's, gives your site better credibility, recognition, and visibility with the search engines and directories.

Technically speaking, domain names are aliases which refer Internet users to IP addresses, complicated series of numbers that represent the location on the server.

If you haven't purchased a domain yet it's best to buy one that includes one of your most profitable keywords for higher relevancy. The engines will rank your site higher for your keyword if it's included in your domain name.

Besides, when readers hit your site, they should be immediately able to understand what your site is all about. And the best way to do that is including your concept keyword in your domain name. It's a better description of your Web site.

The length can be up to 63 characters, although the shorter the better. You may use dashes if it helps readability. Generally, don't use dashes if your name has only two words in it.
Choosing domain names
Keep the length between 5-20 characters if possible.
Try to base it on a common phrase, that's easy to spell and easy to remember
The generic TLD .com is by far the most marketable, and thus the most valuable domain
The next step is to find out whether or not your name has been registered
