Welcome to Pocket-Sized Podcasting, brought to you by Alitu: The Podcast Maker. And on this episode, we’re talking about domain names for podcast websites. Whether you’re using a default hosting provider website, a Podpage site, or a self-hosted WordPress site, you can buy and use a domain name. Domain names are, most famously, dot coms. But you can buy local variations, dot nets, or dot pretty much anything else these days. Whatever you opt for, just try to make it memorable, easy to read out, and most of all, easy to type in. Avoid things like hyphens in your domain name, too. If you’ve got your heart set on one that is going to be tricky to punch in, then you might want to buy a few variations of it and point those to your site, too. An example of this might be a domain name with a number in it. You’d buy one version with the number, and another version with the number spelled out. But do try your best to avoid these situations in the first place. For a deeper dive on this topic, head on over to http://thepodcasthost.com/websites
