Keep It Short
We highly recommend using domains between two and three words. The more words in your domain name, the harder it is to remember for visitors. Make it memorable!
Keep It Simple
Avoid hyphens, numbers, slang, and words with multiple spellings in your domains. Complex elements like these make your website address much harder to spell and remember.
Perform a Domain Name Search
Before you choose your perfect domain name, you should make sure that it isn’t already trademarked or copyrighted by another company.

Domain Name Search FAQs
Domains are the equivalent of your home address but in the internet world. A domain name is an address people put into their browsers to access certain sites. This is a much easier way of browsing the web compared to the alternative – manually writing down IP addresses.
When you type a domain name into Google, the top search result is usually what you’re looking for. And if you type the domain name into your browser, you can directly access the website. Examples of domain names are HostingStafford.co.uk, Facebook.com, and Google.com. For the best results, you should include the name of your brand when registering your ideal domain.
A domain name allows visitors to access your website quickly. Without assigned names for different websites, users would have to access your website by entering an IP address, which is incredibly complicated. An IP address is a string of numbers like 111.111.1.111, so domain names make accessing a website much easier.
Just because it is available, doesn’t mean it’s a good domain. Before you check a domain’s availability, first determine if the name is worth a domain check in the first place. Some things to consider when creating a domain name for your site include:
Length. Keep it short; two to three words is ideal.
Simple. Don’t use lengthy or hard-to-spell words that make it hard for users.
Keywords. Add a keyword from your niche. For example, if you sell Whisky in Stafford, try Staffordwhisky.com
Avoid numbers. Numbers are hard to remember and make everything more complex
Brand name. Register a domain with your brand name in it for maximum recognition.
When creating a new domain, make sure to include keywords and your brand name so that it’s easier to find your website on the internet.
The minimum registration period for domains is one year. At Hosting Stafford, you can register TLDs such as .com, .net, and .org domains for three years when you know you’ve got your dream name.
Make sure you renew your domain on time to keep it yours. To ensure that the domain is always registered under your name, you can set up an automatic renewal which happens whenever the domain is set to expire.
No. The “www” part of the web address isn’t part of your domain – it’s a subdomain.
Let’s say you register the domain “wwwexample”. If you included the “www” part in the registration, the domain would look like this when typed in the search bar: www.wwwexample.com. For that reason, you should only enter the exact words that you want to appear in the domain.
Using the domain checker is as easy as typing your domain into the search bar at the top of the page to determine if it’s available.
Once you search for the domain, you can follow the steps to purchase it, register it, and get it up and running right away.
We don’t have any special requirements when registering a domain name on our site. We only require basic contact information in case of a problem and a valid payment method.
We are always ready to welcome new customers. You can use the domain checker tool and register a domain even if you aren’t a Hosting Stafford client. If you register a domain with us, you can easily transfer it to your hosting provider if you wish.
Of course. When you register a domain, it belongs to you, not the hosting company that you registered it with.
It is easy to use our domain transfer service to transfer your existing domain to Hosting Stafford. We will walk you through every step of the process.
TLD stands for top-level domain. It is the final part of any domain, like .com, .org, or .gov.
ccTLD stands for country-code top-level domains. It is a sub-category of TLDs that are used to identify a particular country. For example, .co.uk, .de, .mx, and .fr are all ccTLDs.
gTLD stands for generic top-level domain. gTLDs are the most common type of domain name. In part, because this category includes .com domains – which have more registrations than all of the ccTLDs combined.
The main gTLDs used to be .com, .org, .net, .edu, .gov, and .mil, but there are now many more gTLDs available, including .online, .xyz, and .name.
With Hosting Stafford, domain name registration is instant. So, once you register and activate your domain, you can use it right away.
We took steps to ensure purchasing domains is easy. With our domain search tool, you can register a domain and finish the entire process in a matter of minutes.
If, according to the domain search tool, your desired domain is taken, we recommend changing the extension. For example, check the availability of the same name with a .co.uk or .xyz extension.
Privacy protection ensures that certain information about the owner of a domain isn’t available to the public. Usually, this information is discoverable through a WHOIS lookup.
But if you have privacy protection, your name, address, phone number, email address, and business name will be hidden from the public WHOIS database.
Each gTLD has a different meaning. So, make sure to pick one that fits your website.
The .com domains are designed for commercial purposes. However, they are largely seen as the default gTLD for most websites.
A .org domain is recommended for charities, communities, and local organisations. These are still used for the same purpose today. Additionally, .info is great for wikis and tutorial websites.
There are no strict rules for each gTLD; however, you should still stick to the guidelines because it makes it easier for users to identify your site.
