Actually, this branding name need not be a domain name as such.

What you’re researching and choosing is a name or term which will fit the kind of image you want for your products and business. For example, you may want to suggest superiority, quality, power, or whatever. You could choose a term or word such as “super” to suggest these qulities. However, I’m sure you could find a better one, especially for your needs. We’ll use it as an example.

What’s the best way to use such a term?

1 Actually use it in a domain name for a website, for example, where you display the array of your products. This could be something like: TheSuperProductsWebsite.com” or just “SuperProducts.com”.

You can see it’s differentiating your products from others by using the name “super”, as well as associating those qualities we mentioned with those products and this website.

2 Put the term “super” in front of every product you create. There could be “Superautoresponder” ,
“SuperEditor”, “SuperPDFMaker”, and so on. This is branding your products with a recognizable prefix.

3 You can be branding your name and business as a whole through your products. When you create a sales page for a product, you put your name on it, and also the name of your business and/or your central domain name.

4 Now, when you are repeating this term, in relation to your products and so on, across the internet through links of various kinds, you’re not simply creating an image of organization but also a unique identity.

You want a domain name you can centralize your business around. This is very important and should not be overlooked. This is not your business name – if you register a business, the formal name of the business can be something else.

You could also think of it as a stand-in name and website. Mine is power-trust.com . I’m not using “power” in its domineering sense but more linked to the “power” gained through trust and honesty. If you go there, there may not be much development at all. I use the name as a reference point for my emails, such as, admin@power-trust.com, and for support needs. It’s used in my privacy policies and so on.

You can use the website flexibly, changing it as you wish to fit changing circumstances and as your business develops. So, you could leave it almost empty, put a few ads on or develop it as a central point referring to your products and services.

However, its main purpose is a marker for your developing business and a name which people will recognise as representing your business, the more you use it. You could have sub-folders with your main services in them, such as main tools or resources.

Without a central site, with a clearly identifiable domain name, your business may have no clear focus, even though you may brand it in other ways.

Where do you get domains?

There are register sites where you can choose and register a domain. Many domain names are already taken, so you may have to be creative in getting yours. Usually, they’re about $9 a year.
