1) SEO Your Domain Name
Because there will be two groups looking at your website, humans and robots. You might want to consider using two domain names.
One for Humans the other for the robots (spiders)
Human Friendly Domain Name
Your human friendly domain name needs to be something easy to remember and easy to spell.
It could be the name of your business or your name if you're a professional.
This will be your secondary domain name. It will merely point to a page that automatically re-directs to your other domain name.
Robot Friendly Domain name
For your REAL domain name choose your three (maybe four) best keywords and string them together in a sentence.
You should end up with something like:
loghomesmichigan.com or
log-homes-michigan.com or
log_homes_michigan.com
Depending upon what is still available.
Build your site under this second domain name and, as mentioned earlier, have your human friendly domain name simply re-direct to it. |
This is the code to re-direct a webpage:
<META HTTP-EQUIV="Refresh"CONTENT="0;URL=http://humandomain.com">
Change this bit to your address: http://humandomain.com
Add it to the "Head" of your webpage.
<head>
Add it somewhere in here...
</head>
Register your domain name for as far ahead as you can. I have no proof of this but it's so easy to look up a domain name and find out how long it is registered for that I believe that the search engines take that into account. They are looking at many different aspects and a more serious website has it's domain name tied up for 10+ years ahead.
