Yes, a shield domi is the best for an active player, who wants to do the most dps. The problem, is that you have to max railguns, drones, and gallente BS to pull it off, which if you're starting out isn't very good, because that is alot of skillpoints. If I were you, I would take the domi in stages:
Stage 1, just hopped in:
Afk style domi, only needs t2 or faction tank to work, will run missions very slowly, but will work
Highs: doesn't matter, just something to draw aggro and put down occasional dps if you want
Mids: 5 cap recharger 2's
Lows: 2 LAR 2, 4 hardener 2's, 1 DCU 2
Rigs: 3 CCC
Drones: t2 light/medium, t1 heavy/sentry
This will see you though every level 4 mission, albiet very slowly.
Stage 2, t2 drones:
Once you have t2 drones, you are going to want to start looking at dropping cap rechargers for omnidirectional tracking links. With 2 of them, ogre 2's will kill even spider drones quickly, and you can get guarde 2's with an optimal of 40km. Now you start to play a little bit more actively, with 2 sets of sentries and 1 of heavies, you deploy the longrange sentries first, then swap to garde's, then to heavies when things start getting under 10-15km.
Stage 3, add guns:
Once you have t2 drones, take and start adding guns to the ship. If you want to be flying gallente all the time, train up hybrids, and if you want to go to stage 4, train hybrids. If you are tired of looking at the boot, decide which other race you are going to train, and if it uses guns train them up and stick em on your domi until you can fly one of their BS's for PvE. Once you have started adding guns, start looking to drop the tank. First drop the DCU, then an armor repairer, and then if you are comfortable with it, an armor hardener. At this point, I would be looking at a fit like this:
Highs
5 350mm railguns
1 Drone link augmentor
Mids
2 omnidirectional tracking links
3 cap recharger 2's
Lows
1 LAR 2
3 hardeners
2-3 magstab 2's
0-1 tracking enhancer 2's (choose which goes in the last slot according to taste)
0-1 cap power relay
Rigs
1 sentry damage augmentor
2 CCC
Drones
5 guarde 2's
5 ogre 2's (my favorite heavy drone)
5 other sentry according to mission
Step 4, maximize the gank:
At this point, to get the most return out of this, it is best to go with a navy domi. I would fit mine like follows:
highs
6 425 2's
Mids
1 booster (large or medium, faction or complex as according to what you can afford)
3 hardeners
2 omnidirectional tracking links
Lows
2-3 magstabs (t2 or faction)
0-1 tracking enhancers
3 PDU 2's
1 cap power relay
Rigs
1 Sentry damage augmentor
1 CCC
1 50 calibration rig of choice
Drones
same as previous, just with an extra set of lights to take advantage of the 400m3 drone bay
