Domain names for you or your organization
Finding a domain name is the first step to creating a presence on the internet. Domain names can reflect the values important to you or an organization. A unique domain name also offers an excellent way to create local, regional and international recognition.
Internationalized domain names are among the fastest growing tools for managing your personal or professional brand on a global scale. In many cases, you do not need to be residing in a particular country in order to use the internationalized domain name it offers. Many organizations register several versions of their official name using various domain suffixes to ensure that their brand, and its message, remain consistent throughout the internet.
Expatriates can take advantage of one or more domain names by using them for both personal and professional communications.
Writing and Blogging
Sharing international experiences with friends and family is simple with your own blog and it is made even easier when you have a personal domain name. Blogging services are happy to let you set up a blog but the internet address for your blog would be hard to fit on a postcard or text message! A short and meaningful domain name is easy to share and remember.
Trust and Name Recognition
If you provide freelance business services or are working as a ‘location independent’ professional, your clients need to be able to find you and trust your reputation. Having your own domain name offers both of these benefits and more.
Be “findable” – Your domain name can reflect the services you offer and their value. But more than this your domain can become a reliable online business card and opportunity to connect with your clients or potential clients. Your unique domain name can be ranked in search engines and can be used on proactive online marketing. You can also use your domain name as part of a branded email service such as “[yourname]@mypersonaldomain.com”. While many people use and recognize large, free email services it has become standard practice for professionals to have their own domain-specific email address for clients and official communications.
