Should I have multiple domain names for my website?

Many people do not realise that it is possible to have many different domain names pointing to the one website. Why would someone want to do this? There are many sound reasons:

  • You only need to have one website
  • By registering multiple domain names, you can prevent others competing against you with similar names
  • You make it easier for those browsing the web to find you
  • You can have extra listings in search engines
  • You can have different domain names pointing to different sections of your website

    • If your budget allows it, registering multiple domain names and having them forwarded to the one website (or to different parts of the one website) is an ideal way to increase your website traffic and to secure your position on the web.
