It turns out that you can earn the first lines in search engines not only thanks to high-quality and "running" content, but also due to a sonorous name. For the site, the name is a calling card. At first glance, coming up with a domain name is easier than a steamed turnip, but it wasn’t there. Long "gibberish" and hard-to-pronounce combinations of consonant sounds alone, as well as "repetitions" will definitely not work, and they will also significantly reduce ratings. A few useful tips will help you create a "delicious" and attractive name for your new web page.
Domain zone - like a foundation for a house
Before you start getting creative with the thematic name of the website, you need to decide in advance on the zone in which the fresh web product will be registered. In simple words, these are the letter combinations located at the very end of the site name: ru, com, net, su, org, biz, info, by and other popular syllables that are easily driven into both Russian and English search engines. Too much with keywordsthere is no need to be smart or fix a page with an ending of Cyrillic letters. This will complicate the search for a fresh web site. By resorting to stealing ideas from foreign sites, you may encounter a "double-edged sword": on the positive side, there are no problems with registering a project, but on the negative side, confusion with writing domain zones and getting on the pages of competitors.
Brevity is the sister of talent
The sweet-sounding short name used in the site's original name is the right way to reach a large audience. It is much easier to say a simple word of 2, 3 or 4 letters than to rack your brains with a long difficult to pronounce set of sounds. You also need to be careful when using numbers. It is better to dwell on the semantic play on such numbers, the main thing is not to overdo it. Short naming is often used to create a brand project, and their cost is the highest.
Abbreviation - looks good too
In order not to build "trains" from long phrases, you can beautifully shorten two words that are suitable for the topic and mold them into a chic name. Examples of Free Domain Names:
- domikot.ru (cat house, cat house) - the name will serve as an interesting option for a site dedicated to cats or selling pet products;
- medoray.ru (honey paradise) - an interesting solution for a page dedicated to honey;
- vinoley.ru - a playful name for an alcohol-themed portal.
Examples of busy domain names:
- autotuni - service name aboutcars and tuning;
- infoglaz ("information eye") - the name of the project where you can learn about everything.
And the ear is nice, and people go
In order for all search engines to display a fresh web site, it is wiser to choose Russian names for the site using the Latin alphabet, while avoiding hissing sounds, as well as "ts" and "f", which can make writing difficult. If the nickname includes a Russian-language word, you can use a similar lettering for a clear transliteration, for example, use the English-language "X" as the Russian "ha". At the last moment, if you really want to include the sound "h" in the word, you can replace it with the number 4. A harmonious sequence of letters will significantly increase the rating, which in the opposite direction will make the set of a hard-to-pronounce "consonant" combination. Here are examples of memorable site names with successful domain names that have already existed for several years with "ru" domain zones:
- 2uxa, which is easily pronounced as "two ears" or "two" - a site dedicated to finding free downloads of MP3 music, videos and images on your phone;
- 101kote ("101 kote") - at the time of creating the title of the page about cats, the authors successfully beat the title of the film "101 Dalmatians";
- Povar, it simply reads "Cook" - a site of culinary recipes for every taste;
- Stihi ("Poems") - online space forpoets;
- Datki ("Datki") - this is the name of the site where you can find a congratulation suitable for an important date;
- Cruiz ("Cruise") - it's easy to guess that this is about travel.
- 1001sovety ("1001 tips") - a web space dedicated to the secrets of female beauty and fashion trends. Here the authors of the online magazine decided to "play" with the eastern name "1001 nights";
- lubimyjdom ("Love Home") is an attractive name for an interior design website.
Be trendy
If the content of the site includes trendy topics that are on everyone's lips, then why not come up with an appropriate name. Many existing pages are named after a brand or long-running glossy magazine. Website name examples:
- Cosmo ("Cosmo") - short name of the popular fashion magazine "Cosmopolitan";
- Svadbuzz - the creators of a family social network have found an original approach to merge the word wedding with the newfangled syllable "buzz";
- The familiar Russian word "obraz" has acquired a modern English synonym for "bow", which is so often used by users of the glamorous network "Instagram": they were not at a loss on the site with the name "wlooks", which literally can be translated "in the image";
- Womanclub ("Vuman club") - web magazine for women;
- modnail - stylish manicure service name;
- Hitcrazy ("HitCrazy", "Crazy Hit", "Mad Hit")' - the name of the site for downloading music and watching videos;
- modishlady - stylish site for women.
My yours to understand
It's great if the creator of an Internet project speaks foreign languages, in particular English. Based on this, the translated name for the site can become a winning "chip". In addition to English, other languages that use the Latin alphabet can be taken as a basis. If there are difficulties with translations, online dictionaries will come to the rescue, where you can find a bright, suitable word for the subject:
- Teamo ("Teamo") - translated from Spanish means "I love you." (such a sensual name was invented for a dating site);
- onelady ("first lady") - beauty and style service;
- womansmyle ("a woman's smile") is a positive name for a popular online women's clothing store
Shopping Therapy
The most popular today are purchases made without leaving home through online stores. To earn high ratings, it is not enough to be limited only to goods, it is necessary to create an attractive "sign", otherwise, with an incomprehensible name, the site will literally "overgrow with moss", despite the wide range of goods. And no one wants to work at a loss:
- Price ("Price") - immediatelythe borrowed English-language phrase "price list" suggests itself, and for good reason. This is how the territory of a popular online store in Russia with universal goods sounds.
- A clothing buying notice board with the playful and sonorous name "tangle.com".
- A universal name was invented for the Ukrainian online boutique Brand-City.com.
Your own brand
If inspiration occasionally visits the head, and thoughts about what site name it is better to come up with do not come, the best option is to use your first and last name. This original method will perfectly fit into a personalized blog, promotion of creative works or business. Photographer Rimma Murzilina used this unique method by naming her Internet space using the abbreviation of her first and last name "rimmamur.ru". Here are some more interesting examples of well-known websites created:
- "Alinasbux.ru";
- "Katyaburg.ru";
- "Yanamazuleva.com";
- "Mont Marie.ru";
- "Anabel27".
Idea Generator
In the same case, when the task arises of how to make the name of the site highly rated, special applications and online programs can come to the rescue, with the help of which you can choose a sonorous nickname for your Internet project. The catch lies in the discrepancy between the name and the theme of the finished Internet product. However, if you "hang" and "rummage around" there, you can dig up treasures of interesting ideas. handsomelynames sound with combinations of vowel sounds "a la Spain" "io" or "ai" at the end of the word. It is reasonable to do without "fancy" borrowings, where there are combinations of "zh", "ts", "ph", to avoid the sound "u" "sch". Many web pages contain a dash, but for a nice name design, this character can make it difficult to write an address.
Association game
The right approach to the implementation of the idea is associative thinking. To do this, you need to take a piece of paper and write on it those words that are related to the theme of the website. Then select associations with these words using suitable prefixes and suffixes. Do not be afraid to experiment and bring some optimism and expressiveness to the names. Strict titles are appropriate only in the case of serious content: jurisprudence, ritual services, religion. Examples of interesting real-time institution names:
- "Kind cat" - the name of the pet store;
- "A million scarlet roses" - a sign on the trade flower pavilion;
- "BBC" - taxi service;
- "Papyrus" - a store of goods for creativity;
- "Corkscrew" - a store of alcoholic beverages for every taste;
- "Matrix" - computer equipment store;
- "Sletat.ru" is the name of the travel agency".
Examples of existing pages:
- "Bride.info"' - site on wedding theme;
- Turskidki.ru - shopping space for travel lovers;
- "Vdomah.ru" - all about the interior;
- "Automania.com" - service for car fans;
- "Servantoff.ru" - a platform for fashionable interior design;
- "Svadbagolik.ru" - service for wedding shopping.
Mouth to lock
Even such a small happiness as a personal web project loves silence. Showing off to friends and asking for advice from members of the forum until the registration of the original site name is more expensive for yourself. There will always be an envious "mump" who can appropriate and have time to fix the name earlier.
Check for uniqueness
Before you register your internet brainchild, you need to check if the name is free, so as not to run into disassembly over the assignment of copyright. This can be done using special online resources that display all busy and "intact" domains. If the invented name is occupied in the "ru" zone, the "com" and "no" zones are popular, in extreme cases the Belarusian "by" zone is suitable. Now international domain spaces are in vogue, like "club", "info", "org", "biz" and so on. It is better not to peck at the free "narod.ru", because people often treat such pages with distrust, as they get the impression that the site was created "on the knee".
I want change
Sometimes there are situations when the name of the Internet site is not liked, does not bring fruitful results, or the domain will expire soon. How to change the name of the site or the main name of the web page, some simple ways will tell you. Let's analyze them in more detail.
Before you start replacing the full name of the site, you must get rid of it in advance and register a fresh one. Or link the purchased domain to an existing web project using the settings menu. However, these changes will not take effect unless you change the title of the page itself using the following steps:
- Log in to your account.
- In the "Site Management" option, find the "Rename" column.
- Click on the link address and change the content of the desired cells.
- Everything must be saved.
Purchase a new domain through Ukoz
Operating principle:
- On the computer, enter the control panel and find the "Domain Management" section.
- Attach the acquired name using a certain key on the pop-up window, and wait until everything changes.
Change the name of the web page in the "WordPress" platform
We do everything in sequence:
- In a new browser window, type the name of your new site plus add the phrase: /wp-admin to it. A page should appear with the name "Achtung" written in Latin.
- Click on the link specified in the page, hittingby going to the admin panel.
- On the left, in the "Parameters" section, select the "General" column.
- Next, click on the "Site Title" option and change the old name to the desired one.
- In all lines, where necessary, make changes and save.
- To check if a name has been saved, go to the home page and move the mouse arrow over the top line of the menu bar.
- In the pop-up list, click the line "Go to the site".
- If the new name is not displayed, right-click on the project's home page and select the "Source code" line.
- At the top of the opened field with codes, move the cursor over the Latin "Title", type a new name there.
In order not to have to take troubles with the new name of the site into your head, it's easier to immediately name it not narrowly. If, for example, the online store shoe.ru focuses on selling only shoes and all the “gadgets for it”, and then “throws” all types of clothes plus accessories, then it is unreasonable to call such a trading project a “shoe”, and use a universal name like existing Ozone, LaModa, Jum, Lanita.ru.
