So, i want to start a blog and I'm stuck on something,
Which is choosing a domain name...

The thing is, I'm thinking of buying 3 domains for the website, for example:
1. AllIsWell.com
2. AIW.com (the abbreviated)
3. Aiw.com.ng

What i don't know is
1. Can i buy 3 domain names for the same website?
2. If 1 above is possible, i want to buy the .com.ng because people say they rank higher in local search...so practically, i want to get ranked higher locally but dont want to be left out globally too..
3. I want to also buy Aiw.com because it's easy to remember...

So please what are the advantages and disadvantages of doing this?
What are the problem(s) attached?

Thanks.

Hello,

Regarding your questions,

Yes you can buy three 3 domain name for the same website, but you need to consider Google/Alexa Rank. Using 2 or more domain name loading the same content reduce almost 70% rank on Google. The maximum you can use is 2 to avoid search engine rank reduction.

Buying a .com.ng domain name for local search is advisable if your target is within Nigeria and Africa, for global you might go for .com

Buying a aiw.com TLD very okay and stress free for visitors.

We can provide you with .com.ng or .com domain name and hosting for the project you are about to start with full support.

I strongly believe your niche may/may not influence your domain name. You can even use your name, I don't see that as an issue. What I just think you should think about now is the issue of your target audience. If you're targeting local audience, .com.ng is the best and if you are targeting global audience, go for a .com domain.
Furthermore, about the issue of AIW and ALLISWELL, I will go for the later if it's memorable and not too long.
On the issue of hosting, what are your chances if Godaddy is to stop the promo at the end of January? Do you know the normal price already? Is it not going to affect you? And, do you know the other things you'll need? If yes, what have you done about them.
On buying 3 domains, I think that's waste of money. Anyway, I don't know why you think about that as an option. But, think about buying 1 domain and having you subdomains like, you can have dozens of subdomains with one domain. Like having: clothes.aiw.com, shoes.aiw.com, bags.aiw.com, etc. by buying just 1 domain (aiw.com). Personally, I think that saves money.

you can do that by redirecting the domain to the main one you selected for your website contents. There is no way you can post same articles on the three domain because you have to specify and chose the one that you will use for the main contents while the rest will be for redirection. Better still, you can decide to use the different domain by posting snipet of the article from the main one so you can redirect visitors through it to the main source

Yes. You can
