<p style="text-align: justify;">In my previous post &#8220;A Simple Tip for Choosing a Domain Name&#8220;, I mentioned ways on how to choose a domain name. I actually forgot to mention Branding, in which this tip is not applicable in some ways.</p>
<p>A comment from Lee Ka Hoong of MyBlog2Day opened this topic which I am really thankful because it&#8217;s an additional helpful information that I should mention on that post. Well, it&#8217;s not too late for an update right? (lol)</p>

<p>A comment from <a class="wp-oembed" href="http://myblog2day.com/" target="_blank">Lee Ka Hoong</a> of MyBlog2Day opened this topic which I am really thankful because it&#8217;s an additional helpful information that I should mention on that post. Well, it&#8217;s not too late for an update right? (lol)</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">Here is goes&#8230;</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">Using a keyword on your domain is good if you want to target specific audience or a larger traffic from people with the interest of the niche that you are blogging about.</p>
<p>But if you want to brand your blog, like what Lee said, it&#8217;s better to use unique domain names. <strong><span style="color: #045609;">Branding</span></strong>, simply making you popular from that word. Example, you are popular when it comes to health tips from a domain name <a class="wp-oembed" href="http://dailyfreshies.com/" target="_self"><strong><span style="color: #045609;">www.dailyfreshies.com</span></strong></a>. You are not using the keyword that relates to the health niche but you are popular when it comes to health or any related topics when it comes to health.<br />
<a href="http://blogmatters.net/wp-content/uploads/2010/02/branding.jpg"><img class="alignright size-full wp-image-1074" title="branding" src="http://blogmatters.net/wp-content/uploads/2010/02/branding.jpg" alt="" width="235" height="259" /></a><br />
There are popular bloggers who use the &#8220;Branding&#8221; strategy like Yaro Starak and John Chow.</p>
<p>When it comes to traffic and SEO, you don&#8217;t have to worry that you will not get the amount of traffic that you&#8217;ve been wanting. Like what every bloggers say, patience, eventually you&#8217;ll get known with that niche and you&#8217;ll get the traffic maybe doubled from a keyword domain name <img src='http://blogmatters.net/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_smile.gif' alt=':)' class='wp-smiley' /> </p>
<p>And don&#8217;t forget to check out Lee&#8217;s article of &#8220;<a class="wp-oembed" href="http://myblog2day.com/5-ways-to-build-your-brand-effectively.php" target="_self"><strong><span style="color: #045609;">5 Ways To Build Your Brand Effectively</span></strong></a>&#8221;</p>
<p>Here&#8217;s a glimpse of his article: <em>Blogging becomes very famous and popular on the web, number of blog used to be increased everyday and there is thousands or million blogs on the blogopshere.</em></p>
