Goal of this Lesson:
Help you choose a domain name that’s clear, credible, and easy for your audience to remember — before you buy hosting and register the domain.
🎯 Why Your Domain Matters
Your domain is your online home. It’s the name people will type into their browser, see on your emails, and associate with your course brand.
A good domain builds credibility, trust, and clarity about what you offer.
✅ What Makes a Great Domain Name?
Here are some tips to make sure you choose a strong one:
✔ Keep it Short and Simple
The fewer words and syllables, the better. Avoid complicated or long phrases.
✔ Easy to Spell
Avoid tricky spellings, hyphens, numbers, or anything that causes confusion.
✔ Reflects Your Topic or Transformation
Use keywords related to your course topic, your niche, or the result you help people achieve.
✔ Use .com if Possible
It’s still the most trusted extension. But .co, .academy, .online, or .io can also work if .com is taken.
✔ Make it Brandable
It should feel like a real “name,” not just a string of keywords. You want people to remember it.
