    Picking a domain name  

    Big decision, choose something that will be easy to find and not too long to type out. 

    Usually, your name (dot com) or, if that’s not for sale, your name studio (dot com) or your name art (dot com). Make it catchy and easy to find. If your name’s not in the domain, make sure it’s at least featured in the page title so people can still find you on Google!
