Choosing a Domain Name
Your domain name is your digital identity. Here’s how to pick the right one.
Keep It Short
Shorter domains are easier to remember, type, and share. Aim for 6-14 characters before the .co.za extension.
Make It Memorable
Choose a name that’s easy to spell and pronounce. Avoid hyphens, numbers, and unusual spellings.
Include Keywords
If possible, include a keyword related to your business. For example, “capetowncoffee.co.za” immediately tells visitors what you do and where you are.
Think About Your Brand
Your domain should align with your brand name. If you’re starting fresh, consider choosing a brand name that works well as a domain.
Check Social Media
Before committing, check if matching social media handles are available. Brand consistency across platforms builds trust.
