Which website name should I choose? - Taylor - 06-03-2014 01:59 AM
I have two options for my photography website name. one is (my name).com or the other is (my name)photography.com. Whichshould I choose?

the one with your name and photography

2nd one since it shows the purpose, the 1st one sounds like it would be a personal website about you and family.

You can drive people to either site so there isn't really a wrong answer, but I would choose (myname).com and then title it (My Name) Photography for once they get there. Less for people having to type in the url is better. That's why you don't see hewlitpackardcomputers.com for example. In fact it's hp.com and I would pick something shorter or abbreviated like that except it's not one of the two choices

Get both and use the one with photography in the name.
Its good to have yourname.com. But having keywords in the domain name helps with Google and other search engines. Also you could 301 redirect yourname.com to yournamephotography.com
