6. Alternate Domains
Domain names are relatively inexpensive, so you should register multiple domain versions and extensions in order to protect your brand. The varied domains can be parked on the main website, simply to prevent others from obtaining them. Registering alternate domain versions will help protect your brand.
If you do register alternative domains, at the very least make sure that you re-direct them to your main site - if you don’t, you may well find that your registrar re-directs them to a holding page where they sell advertising space to your competitors!
Don’t just register it and forget it!
