Bill S. is correct - domain names used to be important for SEO purposes, but their utility has declined over time to the point of being negligible at best.If you're choosing a domain name, you should really focus on only a few things:- easy to remember, or "catchy"- easy to spell- preferably a ".com" domain, rather than one of the new TLDs (like ".guru")- aligns with your "brand," if you care about such things.Hope that helps!
