You\u2019ve just purchased a new domain name. You\u2019ve launched your website and you\u2019re ready to get your name out there. The question is, what are some effective ways to make your new website name known? There is the option of paying for advertising, but if you don\u2019t have a large marketing budget or backing from investors, that might not be feasible. Instead, by applying guerrilla marketing tactics, you can spread the word about your new website for little to no cost at all. Check out these 3 useful things you can do with your domain name to brand yourself.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n

Write Your Domain Name On Your Resume<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

By placing your domain name prominently on your resume, you instantly stand out. It shows that you\u2019ve taken the time to build a website and provide extra content for people to learn about you. It communicates that you are an authority in your field. Your resume details your skills and experience, and adding your domain name will help build the brand of \u201cyou.\u201d Even if you don\u2019t have a formal business to promote, you solidify the idea of [you + your expertise] in your readers\u2019 minds.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Print New Business Cards<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Similar to placing your domain name on your resume, you should also place your domain name on your business card. The more clever your domain name, the more memorable it will be for the people who you give it to. And it\u2019s relatively cheap to print new business cards with your new domain name on them. Lifehacker wrote a helpful article about the five best business card printing sites<\/a>, and how to choose the one that fits your needs. Whichever route you take, business cards are still a relevant way to make a first impression. Your domain name on your business card can provide tangible information for clients and helps prevent your brand from being forgotten.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Post On Social Media<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Another low cost way to brand yourself is to make a quick post on social media with your new domain name in it. People will see it, re-tweet it, and share it even more, all without costing you anything. Since it\u2019s already an online-channel, people will be able to click through to your website easily. It\u2019s a great excuse to post something, and it\u2019s newsworthy because you\u2019re giving people a destination to go to, with great content and information that is valuable to them.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
