Selecting a Misleading Domain Name

To many of you this may not be a good idea but some of you may already be taking a huge advantage of selecting a misleading domain name. Whether you may or may not be a part of any conference or workshop about "blogging tips" you should have a mind set that you won't be getting any views if your domain name is misleading but it seems a bitter truth that for a decent start you can also give a shot to a domain name that resembles any other big website or blog.
Although I count this in "ways to get traffic" but I doubt it at the same time. The only doubt that I have is you don't have visitors that will come to your blog regularly. Beside that, it is a great way to cash in the big names. 
 It is the matter of time and effort for you to take your blog to the next level. Since you have a domain name that automatically brings you boat load of traffic every day, you just have to provide the basic facilities of the blog or website that you are making a duplicate of. 
 Lets say you have a blog that has a domain name "Googlr.com" it just seems to be a typo error but imagine 2 billion people coming to Google and even if there is a probability of 0.0001% that would type "googlr" instead of Google, there would be more than thousands of clicks each day to you blog or website. But remember one thing that you should always be providing same services that are provided by the original domain user in our case its Google.

Selecting a Memorable Domain Name

Great ways for getting free traffic is what we are gathering information about. Whether it is a blog about "how to" topics or its about an individuals family blog, one thing you must know about is it should have a memorable domain name. A catchy blog name is always good to see and remember. The simple point that I want to mention here is  if you're launching a new blog, choose a name people will remember easily. 

I still remember years ago, I visited a site called "bored.com". Its logo is a face with a bored feelings. Sounds awkward, doesn't it? However, all it took for me to remember that unusual site was ONE visit years ago.You may not wish to go to such extreme lengths, but at least ask yourself: "Will people remember my domain name?" That is how you would get a good domain.

I do know that there are many domains that you would think are best for your blog but that are no more available. It's because of the trend that people have set. Many bloggers that I know have more than 10 blogs in average. So It won't be easy for you to get the desired domain. Still there are domains that are available for you to buy. Just think fast, because you don't want to wait for someone to get the domain you think suites for your blog.
You can see recommended blog names at NameBoy.com which has a handy tool to help you choose domain names. Also, you can find a surprising number of good deleted (expired) domain names at Whois.net both those websites are free. So I hope you get the best domain for your blog because it will surely help you get in the SEO rankings and eventually you will get traffic to your blog. Memorable domain name will get you boat load of traffic that you are looking for.
