Questions About GroupIDs, Namespaces & Package Management
Hey there, I'm pretty new to the internet world of things around programming and I want to somewhat build my own presence online, so I would like to know your suggestions around managing my GitHub, as a Java Developer, how should I name my packages for the most optimal visitor experience and SEO side of things...
I currently have a
.me domain, it's skywolfxp.me, recently I have considered switching over my personal domain to something that's cheaper such as .dev, not in the scope of this post but my question is: should I switch from using io.github.skywolfxp as my GroupID? or should I keep using it? does it help with search results because GitHub is all over Google for example...?
Also, if I should change to my own domain, if I'm thinking about using a different domain for everything, should I switch from now or can I wait till my .me domain expires?
I am very new to namespaces and would honestly appreciate all of your suggestions and opinions 🙏!13 Replies

hmm.. don't think SEO;'s got much to do with java namespaces, to be honest.. the whole reversed domain bit's just for keeping things neat and avoiding conflicts... probably..
Yeah I agree, however what do you think about it outside of the namespace scope of things... should I switch to skywolfxp.dev from now? would that help build my presence out there?
Wanna add that I have also started freelancing recently so...
hi
Hello?
both are fine - do you want to be identified with your website or your GH account?
I am asking this question, which should I be identified with if I want to "build my brand"?
And potentially appear more professionally...
I guess probably your website once you switch
Yeah that's the whole idea, because I'm making the decision to switch right now, so is it worth switching? That was all
I don't think there's that much of a difference between. me and .dev
but make sure to choose one
Mhm alright thank you
