Hello Friends,

One of my friends is starting their startup. Their website is basically related to the food industry. So, can anyone please explain to me the steps to choose the domain name from an SEO point of view?

When you selecting your domain name, always keep in mind these tips
  • Select your URL according to your site as it has an impression on visitors.
  • Check the credibility of the site from which you are buying the domain.
  • Always keep in mind no charges are being hidden from you.

If you have your own brand, promote branded content, and based on that, choose your own brand domain name.
And then you'll need to work on brand awareness, so that your branded content gets a lot of views and conversions. In simple words, if you take a branded domain - you need to be talked about.

Or the second option - is to fight for niche competitive keywords.

Domain name is the first thing that user types in the search bar while looking for any website i.e. google.com. So it should be attractive and should be easy to remember. In addition, the domain name must be unique to avoid legal issues. The best way to select the domain name is to make sure that it contains the following keywords:
  1. Your targeted keyword
  2. Your targeted location
  3. You targeted category
  4. Important Product name/brand
  5. You targeted theme/sector
