Can Your Customers Find Your Website?
You’ve registered 12 domain names and you want to choose one to launch or rebuild your site under. Which one do you choose? Let’s put it this way: which one can your customer find?
If Google knows a particular domain name it will give your site a better initial start of attracting people to come to your site. Consider one of client’s two domain names:
Which domain will customers find when searching Google?
It’s pretty obvious. Buyers will find the first domain and won’t find the second domain at all. If Google doesn’t know you, people won’t find you when the search. And if they can’t find your site, they won’t buy from you.
Want to find out if Google knows a domain you own? Go to Google.com and search your domain with a prefix of “site:” such as “site:www.domain.com”. Here are two searches from our example:
If Google doesn’t know of any of the domains you own, don’t worry. There are ways to overcome this. But if you own a domain that Google knows about, why not use that to your advantage to draw visitors and buyers to your site?
