Back to Guidelines
Step 2 - Persistent URL and Preservable Digital Objects
- 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.
