Top Domain Name Searching Tools

So you’ve got a great idea for a site, but you’re facing one of the toughest part of web development, the site name. It can make or break your company. A really easy to remember name will help bring in returning customers.

Traditional domain name searching can be very painful and slow, not to mention heavy lifting since you’re trying desperately to think of different combination of words that will work for you. Luckily there are some really nifty domain name searching tools out there that are completely free to use, helpful with search results, and are fast!

You have two options for domain searching on this site. One is a keyword suggestion area, where you can enter keywords that are relevant to your site. The more keywords you add, the better chance you have with a combination that is available to use. The other option is to do a quick domain name search, which is standard for many of these domain name searching tools. On the plus side, it gives you the ability to save your search results for a later hunt.

domize

This one is pretty cool. It’s simple to use and as you type, it will search for your domain. So if you’re looking for a shorter name, I would recommend using this domain search tool.

domainit

Need help finding keywords that are related to your domain? This tool will give you suggestions that you might not otherwise think of. It’s not as sleek as the other tools but it does give you results.

nametumbler

This is another good site that combines your domain with keywords and endings. You choose the “theme” of the keywords, such as business lingo, food terms, animals, and so on.

domainsbot

This site gives you the standard suggested sites to register when you type it in. I like them because of their firefox extension, so you don’t have to waste a tab on domain searching.  They also give you the option to register and have your domain results saved.

These sites should help you on your domain name searching. The method of domain name searching might change later, but for now .com, .net, and .org are the strongest forms of domain names out there.
