You can do the same, or maybe purchase a name you really want for a few hundred dollars. The only characters that a domain name can contain are letters, numbers, and hyphens. Domain names are not case-sensitive and will show up in most search engines in all lower case. If you use a name with a hyphen, you should also consider getting the same name without the hyphen. Dot com names are still the commercial standard on the Internet.
Many people also choose to also register the .net version of their name.
If you plan to attract visitors from outside the United States, you should also register your country-specific domain. Use our Multilingual Translator or Multilingual Registration tools for help with languages. Pick a name that matches your business. It can be your company, your product, or the benefit your product provides. If you have a company name that is long or hard to spell, consider using an acronym.
