Day 4 7DBBD: Ways to Find a Domain Name
Alright this is the part everyone reading this has been waiting for. Lets register a domain name! Wait wait wait first lets look at some ways to find some nice keyword .com (or other extension of your choice) domain names.
If you have browsed through the forums and top domain sites by now you already know there are tools out there to find domain names. We are going to look at some of those tools and other ways to find and register domain names.
Alright the first tools we are going to look at are tools that find domains based on keywords that the put in to them.
DomainSuperStar.com – This is a site that has some pretty powerful tools that they offer for free and a paid basis. The one tool i am talking about most is the Type-In Traffic finder tool. Its as simple as typing in a keyword and it pops out some highly searched terms for that keyword. I.E. I typed in “Register” and i get things like RegisterLibrary.com or PayrollRegister.com
HotNameList.com – Now this one is one for the trend watchers. They basically take top keywords in recent news or in things they feel like looking at and pop out the most highly searched and top paid domains they can come up with. They have a metrics that displays words, letters, estimated CPC, monthly searches, and trademark issues. Powerful tool and i check it everyday. They have names like TestingPesticides.com and WelfareOfficer.com.
GoDrops.com – If you are looking for an interactive domain site, this is your stop. GoDrops.com specializes in active dropping domain names. Basically from 2pm Eastern Time to 3pm Easter Time they host a live chat/drop event. You get to watch domains drop in real time and try to register them while discuss and chat about domain names or the drop. Very fun and recommended for everyone.
PremiumAvailables.com – This is a site that is run by a friend of mine. Its a blog format available domain list. Its not updated every day but when it is there are some pretty good domains listed. Just go and give a quick check from time to time.
Now that we have checked some awesome tools to find some great domains there are quite a few different ways to find domains. Some complicated some simple. Here is a way that Mark from DotSauce.com(Video!) has posted that is pretty fun and interesting in finding niche domain names.
In addition to these tools you may want to check out other domain blogs and forums for available domain lists and tips on finding good domain names. I am trying to keep it simple with these tools and lists. This is a very good way to find out whats good and whats not. On top of that it takes a lot of guess work and browsing for the new player in the domain game.
Task:
Find a domain name and register it with the domain registrar you have chosen in the past. If you need any coupons for a specific domain registrar let me know and i will see what i can dig up. Do not forget to post your shiny new domain here for everyone to see.
