What You Need to Know About SEO

What You Need to Know About SEO

How many different websites do you visit each day? How many of those sites did you reach through a search engine? Chances are at least one of them if not more. Search engines are the gateway to much of the internet. People just like you go online in search of something, but not sure where to find it. Their search engine then directs them to a list of ranked websites. If you’re like most people, you will only check out the top ranked results, even though there may be multiple pages of results that match your search query. This means that it is extremely beneficial for your website to appear on that first page of results.

But how do these websites make it into the list? Search engine optimization. Simply put, search engine optimization is a process used by websites to give them a higher ranking and more visibility in search results.

It used to be that search engine optimization, or SEO, was as simple as having the right keywords placed all over your website and in the code that makes up your website. But that’s no longer true. While the big search engines like Google, Bing, and Yahoo have many number of factors that affect SEO with their service, they aren’t sharing what all these factors are. Think of what affects these SEO rankings as a recipe. We don’t know all the ingredients that make up this recipe, but thankfully top SEO experts have identified some.

Read on to learn how to include some of these ingredients in your website.

Your Domain

Before ICANN opened the gTLD world to more personalized domains, your domain didn’t matter much to your SEO. When most websites had similar domains like .com, .org, or .net, these didn’t add much to SEO other than credibility for the domain. Keywords have long been important in web addresses, but now they are important in domains as well. Websites that battled for top SEO ranking  with just their web address can now battle for it with their domain. Coffee.com now has to battle www.fresh.coffee. Think about the keywords that are important to your website and business and choose that domain.

Your Website

Keywords still play an important role in your website. Though they have been supplemented by some other important ingredients–which we will explain below–they still need to be a focus of your website. What are you selling? Why should people come to your website? If you’re selling, local, fair-trade coffee, find ways to include those keywords and that keyword phrase in many places on your website. Search engines give preferences to website who use a search term many times in their website. This shows these search engines that the website must be a good fit for the search term since it is used many times on the website. However, that doesn’t mean you should just type “local fair-trade coffee” on your website over and over. In fact, this is a bad idea. As search engines have gotten more complex they have been able to identify and even weed out websites that are trying to game the system and get all the clicks without providing good content

Your Content

Search engines like Google will often change what the engine looks for from websites to keep sites from manipulating it. One of the big changes Google has made recently has been a focus on quality content. Google is essentially a robot that crawls websites, so how does it know good content from bad? It doesn’t but it has some rules for what it think makes good content. A big rule is content that is enjoyed, shared and supported by others is considered more legitimate. That means you can create quality content all day, but if no one is reading it, Google won’t give it as much weight. So it is important to create quality content and get others to read it. How do you do this? Following the coffee example this may mean writing a blog on your website that talks not just about your coffee but about coffee in  general. What’s the best roast? How do you tell good coffee from bad? Write these blog posts and share them with friends, on social media and other blogs if possible. You are creating quality content that is keyword rich that you are now hopefully building an audience for.

These are just three ways to build your SEO and SEO is always changing. Services like Google give a little insight into what their search engine is looking for every few months. Keep an eye out for these updates, keep checking back here, and continue creating great content.

Five Reasons to Purchase Multiple Domains

Five Reasons to Purchase Multiple Domains

 

Domain Cost Club’s pricing and exceptional service makes it easy for members to purchase multiple domain names at many different top level domains (TLDs). But should you purchase multiples or maybe just one domain to start? For cost reasons, the benefits are great for DCC members. Your membership grants you at-cost pricing, so multiple domains won’t break the bank with markup. But are multiple domains the right choice for you? Read on to learn the benefits of owning multiple domains.

Diversity

For many people, a domain is an investment, and like many investments, a grouping of multiple domains is often referred to as a portfolio. A portfolio is often used when discussing stocks, which is a great way to frame reasons for having multiple domains. You wouldn’t invest all your money into just one stock, would you? That’s one reason to own multiple domains. Consider buying multiple domain names as well as domains at multiple .TLDs. This way, your investment is spread across many options that could give you a return on your purchase.

Experience

While there is much money to be made in domains, that doesn’t mean you’ll get rich off of your first domain sale or even feel totally sure of what you’re doing. With the low price point of domains purchased through DCC, you can learn domaining as you grow your portfolio. Perhaps your first few domains will be inexpensive, as you have success selling them or using them, you may feel comfortable buying domains in a higher price bracket with the hope of  a bigger return. Your experience in “domaining” and your portfolio can grow alongside each other.

Price Points

Due to demand and different TLDs, price points for domains purchased through DCC can range a bit. However, you can always be sure you’re getting the best price for your domain. Currently, domains with a .energy TLD purchased through DCC run around $66.00 dollars per year, where .net is just $7.54 per year. These TLDs offer different branding opportunities and a priced differently to reflect that. People might be interested in these domains for many different reasons, so it makes sense to purchase a few domain names at different TLDs and different price points to build your portfolio. This will help you to get different levels of return from your domain sales or personal use.

Investment

We’ve mentioned it a few times, but domains can be a great investment! The more domains you purchase, the more money you stand to make from sales of those domains. Just be sure you can manage the number of domains you own. Like stocks, domains will have high and low days and not everyone will be interested in the ones you own. Remember, investments can take time, so dont be afraid to hold out for the sale price you think your domain is worth.

Establish

As you purchase and sell more domains, you will become more experienced and established in the domain industry. This allows you to work with others who will benefit from your experience. A prospective buyer might be unsure if the person selling them a domain has only purchased one, built a portfolio can show a buyer that you’re experienced and have many domains to offer. This will give you great referrals too!

How to Register and Transfer Domain Names with DCC

tranfer and register domain names   Now that you’ve decided that you want to join Domain Cost Club and start selecting your domains, how do you want to do that? DCC offers options for your domains including registration and transfers. Here’s how to choose which one you want and how to do each different option.

Who Should Register Domains

If you need a domain and don’t yet have one, registration is the right choice. Registering a domain means choosing a name at a domain like “mikes.pizza” and purchasing it through DCC. Once the purchase is complete, your domain is registered and ready to use. If you’re not sure if you’re ready to register, watch the DCC video and learn about all of the benefits of registration.

How to Register Domains

To register your domain with DCC, navigate to https://www.domaincostclub.com/ and select “Register” from the top menu navigation. You will then be taken to a page where you can search the availability and pricing on the domain you like, as well as get suggestions for other domains. Try typing in the word “optimized” into the search bar without adding any other information, the DCC search returns suggested options for you: optimized.club, optimized.cash, and optimized.pics. Not what you’re looking for? You can adjust the search bar to include a specific top level domain (TLD) for you. Just click on one of the TLDs listed below the search bar or click “More TLDs” to see more searches. From this box you can now search any address at .marketing, .property, .diet, or whatever you would like. Once you’ve picked an address, you can see what it will cost you as well as what it would cost you through other registrars like eNom and GoDaddy. Once you’re satisfied with your domain, select “Add to cart” and proceed to check out.

Who Should Transfer Domains

If you have one or multiple domains that are up for renewal with your current registrar and you want to explore at-cost pricing with DCC, consider transferring a domain. Transferring a domain will allow you to take advantage of DCC’s referral program as well as at-cost pricing for your current domains and any new domains you purchase.

A DCC Global Domains International History Brief

Global Domains International History

 

GDI History

Global Domains International was launched in 1999 by Alan Ezeir and Michael Starr. The founders of GDI had the foresight to see beyond the restricted world of .COM and wanted to gain another top level domain (TLD) for use by people like you. Ezeir and Starr decided on the TLD of .WS, which stands for website and many other branded names.

In the early days of TLD, countries around the world were each granted their own  TLD, usually an abbreviation of the country name. As such .WS was the TLD of Western Samoa. GDI’s founders worked with the government of Western Samoa to secure .WS for use with GDI. GDI launched as an opportunity for people to have their own branded domain for life at .WS. The average consumer could never afford an expensive .COM, but .WS opened personalized domain names to everyone at an affordable price. In addition, GDI launched many support tools to build out the website at those domains as well as an affiliate marketing opportunity. To this day you can secure your .WS and more through GDI and earn income.

Domain Cost Club

Much like Ezeir and Starr predicted, .COM  is becoming less and less powerful while personalized TLDs are now becoming a hot commodity. Starting in 2013, ICANN began releasing TLDs never before imagined for public use. Think of .attorney, .pizza, and .website to name a few. These TLDs give the opportunity to brand your website in a whole new way.

Domain Cost Club was launched to bring these TLDs to you at the lowest price possible. All you have to do is become a member and you can have any number of these TLDs at cost—no markup! Now you can uniquely brand your business or businesses with any number of exciting top level domains. You can also become a DCC affiliate and work to offset your membership cost and make additional income.

The Connection

As you can see, GDI and DCC were both founded by the same people, Alan Ezeir and Michael Starr. In 1999 they saw the potential of opening the world of TLDs to buyers like you and as the landscape of TLDs changed, they are doing it again. GDI is still a great way to secure your Internet Address for Life as well as some great support tools to build out your website. DCC is a wonderful way to get into investing in domains and being ahead of the curve as the world of TLDs once again changes forever.

What is a Domain Name? Why Should I Get One?

What is a domain name

 

The domain industry can be intimidating–first starting with all the vocabulary. We’ve created a post with some common domain vocabulary, but in this post we want to focus on domain names, what they are, and why you need them.

Look up to the top of your browser, do you see that address that starts with http? That is your domain name–sort of. You may know this as a URL and while a domain name is sometimes a URL that is not always the case. Thoroughly confused? A domain name is the actual name of the website whereas a URL can contain that name, but also other words. For example, www.domaincostclub.com is a domain name. That is the official and main domain of that website, while https://www.domaincostclub.com/tlds.dhtml is a URL that contains the domain name www.domaincostclub.com. Think of a domain name as the main part of a website and usually where you start.

So why do you need a domain name? Think of all the reasons you visit domains each day–to look at a restaurant menu, buy something from a website, learn more about a business. All this information can be found at domain names. Domains are a great way for you to brand yourself or build your business.

Buy for You

If you have a restaurant, you run a business, or you want to share your knowledge, you need a domain name for yourself. This is a way for people to find you online. So purchase a domain that suits you, like www.Mikes.Restaurant and start building.

Build a Portfolio

If you dont have an immediate need for a domain, it’s easy to see that others do. So start building a domain portfolio. Explore the new TLDs and see which drive traffic and make the most sense for you to own.

Adult Branded Domain Promotions

Adult Branded Domain Promotions

 

The adult industry is big business on the Internet. Countless searches every day include adult keywords, many of the most trafficked websites are adult themed, and now there are several new top level domain extensions launching to target that traffic. The registry for .XXX is launching .ADULT and .PORN in May 2015, and is doing so with deep promotional discounts. Domain Cost Club will pass those discounts on to you, courtesy of our at-cost pricing.

[tboot_table strip=”yes” border=”yes” condense=”yes” hover=”yes” cols=”Top Level Domain,Regular Price,Promotional Price” data=”.XXX,$62/yr,Only $12 for the first year during April!,.ADULT,$62/yr,Only $12 for the first year during Domain Matching from May 6th-31st!,.PORN,$62/yr,Only $12 for the first year during Domain Matching from May 6th-31st!”][/tboot_table]

.XXX domain owners get dibs on the matching string in .PORN and .ADULT before those names become available to the general public. The “Domain Matching” window gives existing .XXX holders (as of April 30, 2015) a priority registration opportunity from May 6th – May 31st. All you need to do to be eligible for this special is own your .XXX domain by April 30, 2015. The matching domains have to be from the same registrar as the .XXX registration, so if you already own a .XXX you need to transfer it to DCC asap.

If you’ve ever considered profiting from adult traffic, now is the perfect time to buy in. Grab some .XXX domains at an 80% discount during April, then do the same for .ADULT and .PORN in May!

What is Wholesale? Part 2

What is wholesale

 

In Part One of “What is Wholesale” we explained how wholesale pricing works in a general way with easy to understand examples. Now that you have an idea of how wholesale pricing works, lets discuss how it works for the domain industry. If you’ve watched the DCC video, then you know DCC is a domain registrar, which is an organization that sells domains.

Read on to learn what role DCC plays in the wholesale domain world and how best to take advantage of this.

Domain Name RegistrIES

A domain registry is not the same thing as a domain registrar, which can be very confusing since the phrases sound so similar. DCC is a domain registrar.

So what is a domain registry? A domain registry is the database of all domain names and their registrant information. A registry essentially holds many top-level domains (TLDs) waiting for someone to come along and buy them. (Remember, TLDs are domain endings like .com, .ws, .org.) These registries fit in the chain as the wholesaler or distributor. Think back to part one and the role the wholesaler plays.

Domain Name RegistrAR

So if a registry holds TLDs, that’s where you should go to buy them, right? Wrong. Just like you cannot buy directly from a Coca Cola factory, you can’t buy directly from a registry. Registries, like the Coca Cola factory, operate in big bulk orders. Thats where the domain registrar comes in. A registrar purchases many TLDs to then sell to you, the consumer. Since the registrar just paid a price for these TLDs and wants to generate revenue, they will try to sell these TLDs for more than they paid for. Now think back to part one of our “What is wholesale?” post. This kind of behavior and place in the chain make the registrar the retailer. Which means you are the next level in the chain–the consumer.

Customer/ Member

Now it’s time for you to jump in. You want a TLD and you can’t buy it directly from the registry, so you have no choice but to buy from a domain registrar at a marked up price. This means paying more for the exact same thing a registrar paid much less for.

That is, unless, you’re a member of Domain Cost Club. Domain Cost Club offers TLDs at the wholesale price–no mark up. All you need to do is become a member to enjoy these at cost benefits. DCC also has a robust referral program. This program gives you a chance to earn cash from DCC for referring your friends. That means with enough referrals, your membership can essentially be free or you can even make money. Now you’re getting the wholesale pricing or even cheaper!

 

 

Now that you know how wholesale pricing works in domains and TLDs, go get your domains!

What is Wholesale? Part I

what is wholesale

 

You’ve probably heard of wholesale pricing before and not thought much about it. Flyers will promote wholesale pricing at certain club membership grocery stores or vitamin companies might shout at you during a commercial about wholesale prices. But what is wholesale pricing? The most important thing to know is wholesale pricing is a money saving opportunity. There’s a reason you hear about it a lot in commercials—it’s something to shout about. So you know wholesale pricing is good, but how good and what are the benefits for you?

Read on to learn more.

Wholesale by Definition

Wholesaling refers to the sale from merchandisers to retailers. Think of this as your favorite grocery store buying oranges for them to sell to you. The grocery store is the retailer and the farm that grew the oranges is the merchandiser. The retailer pays a certain amount to the merchandiser for all of these oranges. The retailer of course wants to make a little money when they sell  those oranges to you, so the retailer is going to sell them to you for more than they bought them for. The wholesale price that the retailer paid for those oranges is much cheaper than what you, the customer, will pay in store.

Passing the Bargain to You

Now think of how much cheaper those oranges would be if you could get them directly from the merchandiser (remember, the merchandiser is the farm). This is how we pass the discount of Domain Cost Club on to you. Our prices are at the wholesale level with no markup, which means a great discount for you.

How do we do this?

No Middle Man

We’ve cut out the middle man. In our example of the orange farm, retailer, and you, we explained that the retailer needs to mark up those oranges so they can make a nice profit. Not so with Domain Cost Club. We’ve cut out that retailer and the markup that comes with it. The price for your domain is at cost. You pay what we pay, no markup.

Why Membership

Your membership is what ensures that we can keep bringing domain prices to you at cost. This is just how those wholesale grocery stores work, your yearly or one time membership allows you access to prices that are normally reserved for big retailers. Your membership guarantees you access to the best prices in the business. But unlike those big wholesale grocery stores, there’s one more way to keep your costs low, make your membership free, or even make money from your membership.

Sharing Wholesale Deals

When you get a good deal, you want to tell all your friends, right? What if you could benefit from these referrals? With Domain Cost Club you can. Each time you refer a friend who becomes a member and gets the same great deals you do, you will get a minimum of $25. As you refer more friends you stand the chance to make more money. By just referring 3-4 friends, you can have the cost of the Club Member membership completely covered for you. Learn more about affiliate rewards.

 

Now that you know how wholesale works, start saving!
