Choosing a Domain Name

In this lesson, we will learn how to choose domain names. Below are a number of generally accepted recommendations. It's better to follow them, but not mandatory. Here are these recommendations:

• The domain name should be short, memorable, and relevant to the website's topic.
• Use keywords in the domain name to improve website promotion.
• Avoid hyphens and numbers, but it's not mandatory.
• Avoid others' trademarks - it's illegal.
• Choose the right domain zone for your domain.
• Check if the domain is available. If it's taken, check this name in other zones.

In the following tasks, you need to successfully come up with a domain name and its domain zone according to the given website topic.
