Many people assume that as long as the domain name is easy to remember, relevant to your website and that is enough. That is not wholly the case. You have to bear in mind that your domain name only represents the online identity of your business. You may have great products or ideas for your website but picking an appropriate name for your site is one of the daunting tasks you have do, and it can be rather be challenging.
6 reasons why careful consideration should be given to the Domain Name you choose.
Your domain name is also your URL
Many people often seek a domain name that match a keyword of a product they’re selling right into their browser, for example if you’re selling baby toys and you’d want your URL to be “baby toys dot com” and it is therefore stands to reason that your URL should reflect the product or service you are selling.
Well, let me tell you that is not really necessary. Don’t get me wrong; having a keyword rich domain name can help with search engine rankings. However don’t base your domain name purely on keywords as you may want to expand with more products or services later on your site. Buying Australian domain name may be a better choice for you in some instances, if you target customers from Australia, you don’t want to buy a dot com, but a .com.au and such URL tend to go for less money, it depends where you make the purchase.
Hyphenated or not?
Disadvantage: Spelling typos occur easily. If I say to a friend that I visited the “free-digital-marekting” site and he should try it. He may try “freedigitalmarketing”. So you see how the hyphens in a domain name might not be advantageous because it is easy to forget the hyphens and generally it can be a pain in the neck.
Advantage: Search engines can distinguish your keywords better if they are hyphenated as they stand apart and the name you want may no longer be available in non-hyphenated form.
The shorter the better
A shorter name is easier to remember, less chance of spelling mistakes when typing it into the browser and good for word of mouth.
It MUST be relevant to your website
If you choose a domain name that represents your product or service you are offering, you are setting a solid foundation for the success of your business.
Trademarks
Be careful not to pick a name for your online business that already belongs to someone or a company. It could result in a legal battle! I’m not talking about an URL name, there’s no way you’d be able to buy or register it anyway.
Choose the right domain extension for your market or country
For instance, if you aim to launch a website and your target is in Canada, then you might want to pick a domain with .ca ending which is a Domain name Registration Canada.
I want to add that personally I like having my domain name registered with the same hosting company, but some might differ. Conduct a domain name search campaign and good luck with finding the most appropriate one for setting up your online presence. You’re going to have to come up with a unique name for your site by yourself.

Great discussion! EMD's are soo very much overrated! They can still serve a purpose. More a user-friendly one and also for ranking purposes as well. Because as anyone will tell you, having the words you're trying to rank for in your actual domain name does and can make it easier to rank for those keywords. But that doesn't mean to say you can't still rank for them!
However, these days, it's all about branding. And having a domain name that lines up and matches with your business or brand name. Let's say for example you have a business that is in the fly fishing industry and you specialize in creating amazing fly fishing lures for trout.
Well you could create the domain name www.flyfishingluresfortrout.com but you probably wouldn't have a business called that. If you did register an official business that is. You probably wouldn't be called that. You would probably and possibly be called something more along the lines of "[b]Fly Fishing Lures Ltd[/b]" or [b]FFL[/b] abbreviated. So a better domain name choice might be something like [b]www.FFL.com[/b].
However, using the abbreviation is not really exactly user-friendly and could be harder to rank for the keywords you're targeting. So one would have to consider this when thinking about the right domain name to choose for his/her business.
A better way about it is to have an actual name of your business or brand. Something that can help people to identify you with. Some kind of name that you can use first like Jameson or Bangling or something. So your domain could be like [b]www.jamesonflies.com[/b] or [b]www.banglingflies.com[/b] or something like that. That way you have your business name and some other word you want to rank for in the domain itself.
That's the way I think about it anyway. :)

How to find out if the domain was previously registered?
This will help you in the long run, and you won't have any hassles if something were to occur at some point in the future. I would like to also point out that before registering your domain, do a little "background" check and see if the domain was registered in the past. This is to help you understand if the domain was used as part of a business, or personal website. This can also help you understand if there is any backlinks, or even if the domain was involved in any scam or spam activity.
