When you are purchasing a domain there is one primary thing that you need to consider. The one thing is does the name that you are looking to buy match the content that you are planning to offer on the website?
In reality whether the name matches the content or not is sometimes irrelevant, but if you can get a domain name that has a general reference at least to your website that is a good start. For businesses this can be even more important, for most businesses building their brand is the most important thing so using the name of the business in the domain name is almost essential. For a personal site, something like your name or something that seems fairly similar to yourself or one of your interests.
The other option when buying a domain is to get something that is brandable. So that means if you can find it something short and memorable that you can easily try and link to what you site is about and eventually have people almost immediately associate with your site.

Welcome to Average Joe Host, the question is what do you want to know about the web that you do not already know. I am sure if you are looking at this site, that there must be something that you do not know and want to know about to get started with the internet.
Maybe you do not know what, where or how a domain works or where to get one. Maybe you want to know some ways that you can make money on the internet. Maybe you would like to know more about how to start a blog, and what to do with a blog once you have one. There is an absolutely huge amount of information on the internet, and about the internet that many people just start to get overwhelmed by it all, so my goal with this site is to put as much of that information as i can into one site, that is written for you to understand, and give you a logical path to follow in learning it.
In the future, there is going to be information covering topics like, domain names, web hosting, advertising, manageing your hosting, how to guides, and a whole lot more. Initially through written and graphics guides, and later on i hope to provide video tutorials and much more. I look forward to sharing the information on the site with you and hope that you will find it informative and helpful in your online advantures.
