If you don\u2019t currently have a name for it, this is your chance to choose one! Here are some best practices to consider when deciding on your store name.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul><li><strong>Keep the Name Short and Simple<\/strong> \u2014 Try to limit the store name to three words or less.<\/li><li><strong>Choose a Unique Name<\/strong> \u2014 While you don\u2019t want the name to be too far out there, you do want to make it distinct from your competitors.<\/li><li><strong>Make sure the domain name is available<\/strong> \u2014 To find out if the domain you want for the site is available, head over to <a href=\"https:\/\/www.name.com\/domain\/search#:~:text=How%20do%20I%20know%20if,the%20domain%20in%20Whois%20Lookup.\">name.com<\/a>, and enter the domain name you\u2019re thinking of into the search bar. It\u2019ll inform you right away if it\u2019s available or not.&nbsp;<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>If you can\u2019t decide on a website name immediately, don\u2019t worry. You can always come back to it later in your store\u2019s Ecwid dashboard. In this situation, it\u2019s best to choose a temporary name and move on to the next step.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3>Step 2: Enter Your Company Address<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img src=\"https:\/\/lh5.googleusercontent.com\/lwUgTvzfxducF3Hb9WZaFKdJ8tYl2gfivmFoicEi-ANPhNsN9fT_vRROEKcZIRIw6QU9hF0NoEHV2NYykm0Y8pOi-A7wj06HchBQexz2VOzYrwffhH_8qez1YOzLbMS__c2DFA_G\" alt=\"enter your business address\"\/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>Add the address of your company. This will allow you to set up delivery options and get paid.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Not everyone has a company address, of course. In fact, many small business owners today simply operate out of their homes since all you really need to start the business is a laptop and an internet connection.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If you\u2019re in such a position, just use the address of where you will be shipping your orders.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3>Step 3: Extra Details About You and Your Business<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img src=\"https:\/\/lh3.googleusercontent.com\/Q1hwMWDmhNzqm9gmBCpgvV5dq6TiySI3J2ZNLFmJPdR8nllGCPs6jUD5cGHKva6zN8aGHJ0kwb1fLw2rWdJAuo0pOI5yfLs7a-8j4jfYD9yN3-qIogMie7gcQlpMKiW-9s9KCV1y\" alt=\"Tell a little more about yourself\"\/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>Now that you\u2019ve entered in your company address, it\u2019s time to share some extra details.
