The allure of the world wide web with its ability to quickly open up global markets to smart ecommerce business owners with product and services to sell but one of the drawbacks is that the good domains are gone, right? The days of quickly finding several good .com domains have all but disappeared and it’s getting harder and harder to even find good domain names with less attractive extensions like .net, org, and .biz. If you don’t act fast, you’ll be stuck with a lowly .info domain.
Some people actually believe that hype but it’s not really true. There are plenty of good .com domains readily available just not as many as there where a short time ago so you may have to put your thinking cap on to come up with just the right domain name. But on the other hand, don’t be surprised if you find the ideal domain name quickly.
A recent domain shopping spree left me almost shocked at how easily I found good domain names. The first domain was for an information product that demonstrates how to create, produce, and ship a DVD for free. My first choice was createdvd.com and it came as no surprise that one was taken but CreateDVDProduct.com was available. The second domain was for a DVD I created to show how simple & easy it is to create customized CD & DVD covers. This one wasn’t quite as easy but it didn’t take more than a few minutes before I chose DVDnCDCovers.com over many other good choices. Both of those sites are now live.
For an online course that teaches how to create online video courses, I found CreateVideoProduct.com. That domain was found with relative ease too. TheWebmasterBasics.com was a logical choice for a 3 volume DVD set designed to teach aspiring Internet entrepeneurs the basics of being their own webmaster. These two domain names might a bit lengthy on one hand but anyone can see how quickly they convey exactly what is being sold and the search engine traffic I’m getting echos that sentiment.
I’m not always this lucky. Sometimes it really is difficult to find a good domain name but with some creativity you’ll eventually find a good one. Try putting a letter or short word in front of your desired domain name like a or e or i or the. Use the letter n in place of the word and. Instead of an s, use a z. I did that with BlogCarnivalz.com. The key word phrase “blog carnival” is still in the domain. Use that lump on your neck and I’m sure you can think of lots of other ideas. It just isn’t difficult to find good .com domain names.
