Good Domain Name

To start, you need to buy a great domain name. To have an optimizable domain name, it needs to be:

Normal words that you can easily search.
Make it short and simple, because they will be easier to remember.
Make sure to use extensions like .com, .org, .edu, or .gov.
Avoid using hyphens because they may be harder to remember to add.
Make the name broad so that you can add future products.
Make sure to search the name so that you know it’s not taken by another person.
Make sure it’s a fair price for the domain name you’re purchasing.
Make sure your domain name conveys what your website is about.
Create a URL that indicates geolocation and keywords.

Purchase A Secure Server from a Helpful Host

There are a few different servers that you can use. Shared Server, Virtual Private Server, and Dedicated Hosting. Shared server is okay because it’s cheap, costing around $2-$10. But a risk because you’re connected to other people’s websites. You could be affected by whatever issue others may have on the same server.

Dedicated Hosting is good because you have a server that is specifically for your website and security, but costs around $100-$1,000. Most small businesses don’t really have that budget.

Your best bet is to use Virtual Private Server because it’s relatively cheap. It cost between $20-$50. But, it also helps to secure your website.
