NAME BEFORE DESIGN

If you plan to put up a website, one of the very first things you have to do is perform a domain lookup. Domain lookup checks if the name you want for your site is available or has already been taken by someone else.

You should perform a domain lookup even before you design your website because this way, you are sure that the website design matches the website name. Imagine creating a website around a particular domain name, only to find out later that the name is no longer available. You will have to go through the design process all over again; all because you chose to do the domain lookup at a later time.

FREE AND EASY

There is no excuse for not doing a domain search because it the service is easy to use and absolutely free. For a domain lookup, all you have to do is go to any web hosting site. Depending on the website you use, the domain search feature may either be on the front page or within one of the links.

In any case, whatever site you use, the domain lookup will be just a matter of typing the domain name you plan to use and clicking the confirm button. In a matter of seconds the site will generate the results. If the domain name you want is available, you will be given the choice to reserve it. If you are serious about putting up a website, it is a wise move to reserve the name you want because someone else might want the same name and if you do not reserve, the name will go to the one who reserves or registers it first.

If the search turns out negative, you will be given a list of name options closest to the name you want.
