So what’s in a name? Plenty if you’re trying to choose a domain name!

Think about it….. choosing a domain name is a bit like getting someone’s name tattooed on your arm. As long as your business is alive, you’re stuck looking at that name day after day. Choose one wisely!

What is a domain name? A domain name is your address on the internet. When you type an address into your browser, you type the (www.) or (http://www.) first. Then you add the domain name. (in our case podforyou) Type the extension. (.com, .net, .info, .gov, .org, .biz, .bz, .mobi and so on) There you go….. our address looks like this: www.podforyou.com or http://www.podforyou.com.

Sometimes an address will also end with a folder extension. For example, our forums are located in the /forums directory of our site. To get there, you have to type in www.podforyou.com/forums.
