Take a first step and decide on the name of your website. Ask yourself questions like “What describes my dream the best?” or “What will the easiest words be for my customers/readers to type in when they want to access my website?” and when you think you have come up with the right name, put it in the domain name search bar above to check the availability. Selecting a good domain name can prove to be very important to the success of your website/business so don’t wait for someone else to grab it! Start typing now!
While searching for a name for your website, it’s okay to get your creative hat on, but you also have to make sure you don’t get carried away. Get it right and you will enjoy the success, but make it a little bit too clever and it might not bring you the success desired. Here are a few tips that will help you to create that perfect domain name.
Keep it short. First things first, you can’t (or at-least shouldn’t) go for a long domain name. That’s just a no-no! Go for something soft and sweet!
Don’t use trademark names. While choosing a domain, ensure that nobody possesses a trademark on the name you are proposing. Otherwise, you could risk facing some legal action.
Pronounce it. Before you hit the “buy” button, try saying your domain out loud and see how easy or hard the pronunciation and the sound of it is. It’s not recommended to go for a domain name that will be a colloquial ordeal.
Use the correct domain extension. If you are signing up for a localized domain, having the correct domain extension is a must. A .com domain is universal and everybody loves to get their hands on one, but there are other viable options out there as well. Choose wisely.
Brand specific. Most of the time, it’s a good idea to go with the same name as your brand is, if you already have a business in place. If, however, your ideal domain name is taken, you can try a name that’s slightly different but sends the same message!
Avoid special characters and numbers. Using hyphens and numbers is another no-no for domains. It can prove to be a communicational nightmare. Imagine telling a person your website name that has a number and eventually they are perceiving it wrong.
Make use of keywords. Your website is going to be as good as its search engine optimization or, in other words, SEO. While choosing a domain name, try to make use of keywords to enhance SEO for your website

Answers to frequently asked questions about the domain name search and domains in general.
A domain name is, simply put, an address on the internet that people can use to access web servers and web pages. Instead of telling people IP addresses to access a certain website, domain names were introduced as it’s easier to tell the descriptive names e.g. xyz.com instead of 38.89.222.321. It's for ease-of-remembrance.
A domain name is your website’s identity. It helps people access your website or your business without having to remember the IP address at which your website is hosted. Choose an easy-to-remember, descriptive and creative domain name and it will never leave your customers’ minds.

TLD or top-level domain can be referred to as the last part of a domain name, which comes after the “.”. Some well-known examples of TLDs are: .com, .net, .org, .biz, .info, .name and .eu. Every TLD serves a different purpose and they should be chosen very wisely. For example, .biz should only be used by businesses and .org only by organizations.
