Domain Names
Domain names are integral in order to give proper identity to an entity or entities. When picking a domain name the first thing to consider is the availability of the name. To date there are already a great amount of domain name infringement cases. From a marketing point of view the amount of available domain names have greatly depleted. This being the result of many companies having already taken several domain names under their wing. To name an example we have www.3m.com and www.mmm.com both of which are owned by one company. These variations are done to ensure that the said companies are protected against infringement.
Domain Name Relevance
As aforementioned domain names give identity to an entity therefore when registering for a name, one must put into consideration the nature of business or personality of the domain. Relevance must exist between the entity and its chosen identity partnered with a justifiable basis for the name selection.
