I have a suggestion for our President on how to boost economic growth without spending a penny: Free the H-1B’s.

More than a million doctors, engineers, scientists, researchers, and other skilled workers and their families in the U.S. are stuck in “immigration limbo.” They entered the country legally and have contributed disproportionately to our nation’s competitiveness. They paid our high taxes and have been model citizens. All they want to do is to share the American dream and help us grow our economy.

They could be starting companies, buying houses, building community centers, and splurging like Americans. But because we don’t have enough permanent-resident visas (green cards) for them, they’re stuck in the same old jobs they had maybe a decade ago when they entered this country. They are getting really frustrated and many are returning to their home countries to become unwilling competitors. And they are taking our economic recovery with them.

Xenophobes will claim that immigrants take jobs away and blame them for everything that is wrong in their lives and in America. But as TechCrunch wrote last week, skilled immigrants create more jobs than they take away. That is a fact. My research team documented that one quarter of all technology and engineering startups nationwide from 1995 to 2005 were started by immigrants. In Boston, it was 31%, in New York, 44%, and in Silicon Valley an astonishing 52%. In 2005, these immigrant founded companies employed 450,000 workers. Add it up. That’s far more than all the tech workers we gave green cards to in that period.

It’s not only jobs that they’ve created. In 2006, more than 25% of U.S. global patents had authors who were born abroad — and this doesn’t even count people like me, who came here, became citizens, and then filed multiple patents. Of Qualcomm’s global patents, 72% had foreign-born authors, as did 65% of Merck’s, 64% of GE’s, and 60% of Cisco’s. I’m not talking about silly patents filed with the U.S. Patent Office here, I’m talking about WIPO PCT  applications — the patents that help our companies compete globally.

Why does Silicon Valley need a foreign-born workforce? Because these immigrants are able come to a foreign land where they face hardship and discrimination and stand shoulder-to-shoulder with the world’s best technical minds and most successful entrepreneurs.  They are able motivate Silicon Valley’s top guns to work even harder and think smarter. They add a global perspective and enrich America.

The largest immigrant founding groups are Indian, British, and Chinese. Indian-born immigrants, for example, founded 6.7% of America’s tech companies and 15.5% of those in Silicon Valley — but, according to the U.S. census, constitute way less than 1% of the U.S. population. So do the Chinese, but they contribute to 16.8% of our global patents. It doesn’t take a statistician to figure that these are pretty impressive numbers.

Yes, I know that H-1B’s don’t start companies. And that is the problem. We don’t let them.

Hundreds of thousands of mostly very smart and highly educated workers who could be starting companies are not. While they wait for their green cards, they can’t even change jobs or accept a promotion, for fear of losing their turn in line. If they lose their job, they have to find another job within 30 days — or get booted out of the country. Their employers know that these workers aren’t going anywhere, so they can go easy on the salary increases and bonuses. Some unscrupulous employers do take advantage of them. And their spouses usually can’t work, and in some states can’t even get drivers licenses, because they don’t have social-security numbers. Does this sound like America?

Unlike the daunting economic problems facing the country, this problem is easy to fix. Just increase the number of green cards for skilled workers. Maybe let them cut the line if they buy a house or start a company that employs a bunch of Americans. My guess is that we’ll get tens of thousands of startups and a couple of hundred thousand houses sold. That is a bigger economic boost than the clunkers program we’ve just thrown $2 billion dollars at.

With the recent availability of the website domain name extensions (i.e..com,.net,.org and.edu etc), it’s now being very easier to register a domain name that elaborates core objective of your business endeavors.

A number of things need to be kept in mind while keying on a domain name for your company:

Decide your clear business goals and objectives
Before eying on a particular domain name you should keep your goals and further business plans in your mind. You must analyze the indented audience for your business venture and put a core focus on defining the relevancy of the domain name with business prospective and purpose of your website.

Domain name that matches your brand
A domain name that resembles with your brand image can be a good choice. Utilize the very same name for your domain that is being used to advertise your product in the market. It not only allows users to relate them to your business name, brand or product but also helps to brand the company image.

Good extension name is vital
The extensions that enjoy reputation in the search engine rankings should be considered first. At the cyberspace,.com,.net or.org is some of the prominent extensions that usually taken up by the companies, therefore your key focus must be to choose a popular extension that people frequently run in browser.

Keep it short
It’s a matter of debate whether the name of your domain should be short or long. Experts back both the aspects with their several valid arguments. Some says that those shorter domains are very easy to remember, easy to type in URL bar and leave fewer chances for typing errors. Say abc.com is easier to remember than abcdefgh.com.

Put keywords in between
It’s equally important to co-relate your search keyword(s) with the name of domain you want to have. Say you sell ‘carpet cleaning services’ to your clients therefore a domain with ‘carpetcleaning’ can be a great help. Involve this strategy to develop your domain name as it may allow you to reap optimum business benefits and higher search engine rankings as well.

Choose a Domain Name That Reflects Your Identity

Expanding your contours
Wishing to expand your contours online? Buy multiple domains for all your business endeavors! Yes, Success comes with wide participation for which, you need to venture into a number of industries and niches. This is possible only with the way of having access to many domains. A website showcasing both clothing and electronics obviously would lose a lot on its level of credibility. It is important to make your customers believe that you have the supreme authority in your niche. Therefore it is recommended to keep your business ventures distinguished and separate by using many domains. So, own several domains under the same hosting account and enjoy the flexibility of multiple domain hosting services.

Benefit of taking Multiple Domain hosting from a Single Host
Affordability is obviously the prime advantage of taking multiple domain hosting from a single host. In addition to saving a lot of moolah by paying for one service, you also get to save a lot of time in regards to the administration of your website. Also, you have the flexibility of accessing all of your domains within a centralized control panel. The need to login in and out of many hosting accounts gets totally eliminated.

Website Security and Anonymity
Advantage of having multiple IP addresses i.e. one for each of your websites, is another prime factor of multiple domain hosting account. However, every web hosting company provides this facility but a few do and it is recommended to opt for those who offer it as having an IP address is integral for the long term success of your website. On sharing your IP address with several other websites, you actually bring home a higher degree of security threat. With multiple IP addresses, you get to stay away from this problem and are allowed to interlink all of your sites without letting the search engines come to know about it. The search engines will not view you the same entity and would not hamper your linking efforts by penalizing them.
