Back to Guidelines

Step 2 - Persistent URL

  • Decide on a hostname (URL) for the repository.
  • This name should be simple to remember, easy to type into documentation and good for marketing/branding.
  • Ensure the name will never change and that it has a clean URL with no forward slash redirect.

This is vital for electronic citation persistence on the web in the long term and for repository marketing/branding.
