I believe picking the right name for your company or product is pretty difficult, but it gets tougher picking one that also has the domain available.<p>What do you usually do? Add "Use", "Get", "The" before the name or use different ccTLDs?
I like the tools that do a lot of the work for me:
<a href="http://www.leandomainsearch.com" rel="nofollow">http://www.leandomainsearch.com</a>
<a href="http://www.panabee.com" rel="nofollow">http://www.panabee.com</a>
<a href="http://domai.nr" rel="nofollow">http://domai.nr</a>
<a href="http://www.namemesh.com" rel="nofollow">http://www.namemesh.com</a><p>I love using those to get my brain going, and then using that to launch into more creative and unique domains.
Rule of thumb. If it fits on a license plate it's good. People have a difficult time remember something higher than a group of seven. I always start there.
I usually combine two words together (with one word need to be short) to come up with catchy, brandish, easy to remember, unique available domain name.<p>Examples of my recent picks:<p>hostrum.com (for hosting services)<p>autositer.com (for script to auto-generate websites)<p>bitcoinway.com (for open source bitcoin payment solution)<p>listgun.com (for autoresponder services)<p>presentlove.com (personal development blog)
