So, you’re ready to create your website—congrats! 🎉 Whether it’s for your business, personal brand, blog, or project, one of the first and most important steps is choosing your domain name. If you’re not familiar with web stuff, don’t worry—this guide is made just for you.
A domain name is the address people type into their browser to visit your website. For example, www.guavaxp.com is a domain name.
It’s like your online identity. It should be easy to remember, spell, and reflect what your website is all about.
Here are simple tips anyone can follow:
1. Keep It Short and Simple
The best domain names are:

Good: tropitours.com
2. Use Keywords if You Can
If your website is about something specific, try to include related words.
