In this video, you'll learn the essential steps to picking a great domain:

✅ That you should aim for "two to three words max".
✅ Why you must avoid numbers, hyphens, and "weird spellings".
✅ That numbers, hyphens, and weird spellings "confuse users and break word of- mouth marketing".
✅ That a "subtle, relevant keyword in your domain can help with click-through rates and context".
✅ That "Google values brand over exact match domains".
✅ That the ".com" extension "still rules globally".
✅ That local businesses can use country TLDs like ".ie or .co.uk".
✅ That newer extensions like ".agency or .shop" can work if they fit your niche and look professional.
✅ Why you must check for trademarks, domain history, and matching social handles before buying.
✅ That checking domain history helps you avoid "legal drama or to inherit someone else's spammy past".
✅ Why you must think long term and choose a name you can grow with.
