Before you go printing flyers or designing your logo, make sure your business name is actually available online. That means checking if the domain is free. Securing a domain name that reflects your business identity is a critical step in establishing an online presence.
At Kwikaweb, we’ve made it easy for Nigerian entrepreneurs to search, register, and own their brand online.
Step 1: Use Our Domain Search Tool
Head to kwikaweb.com and use our domain checker. Just type your desired name (e.g. “naijawears”) and we’ll show you what’s available:
- .ng
- .com.ng
- .com
- .org
- .biz
…and more.
If the domain is available, you can buy it instantly. If not, don’t panic yet.
Step 2: Try Variations
If naijawears.ng is taken, consider:
- Adding a keyword (e.g. naijawearsfashion.ng)
- Using a different extension (e.g. naijawears.com.ng or .store)
- Shortening or abbreviating creatively
The key is keeping it simple, easy to remember, and relevant to your brand.
Step 3: Avoid Similar-Looking Domains
Don’t settle for a domain that’s too close to an existing popular one. For example, if naijabank.com exists, don’t go for naijabankz.com—you’ll confuse customers and risk legal issues.
Step 4: Register Immediately
Domain names are like real estate. If you wait too long, someone else might buy it—especially if your brand is catchy.
Selecting the right domain name is foundational to your online branding. Kwikaweb offers a seamless process to search for and register domain names, ensuring your business establishes a strong digital footprint. Check your domain availability now.
