Naming advice:

  • Keep the names succinct and meaningful, concentrating on the purpose (e.g. public-website, intranet).

  • Avoid having the data source type as part of the name.

  • Use well known abbreviations like usa for United States of America

  • Don’t use shortened names for example by dropping a few letrs cos its hrd 2 undrstnd.

  • Avoid using complete domain names (e.g. www-client-com-au)

The same process can be used to add additional results pages.
