How do I search for a domain name?

1. Type your idea (for example, yourbrand) into the box above.
2. Run the search to see instantly whether it's available across common extensions.
3. If your top choice is free, register it right away to lock it in.
4. If it's taken, try the suggested variations or small tweaks to find a clean alternative.

How do I choose a strong domain name?

Start by listing words that describe your brand, niche, and what you offer. Then keep it simple:

• Short and clear — easy to spell, say, and remember.
• Avoid hyphens and numbers — they cause confusion when spoken aloud.
• Make it brandable — a distinctive name is easier to protect and rank than a generic keyword string.
• Read it out loud — ask a few people to spell it from hearing it, to catch awkward pronunciations.

Mix and match your best ideas, then check availability before you commit.

Which domain extension (TLD) should I pick?

.com remains the most trusted and memorable choice for most businesses, so it's worth trying first. If it's unavailable, strong options include .co, .io (popular with tech and startups), .net, and relevant country-code TLDs (like .co.uk or .pk) when you serve a specific region. Niche extensions (.store, .app, .design) can work well if they reinforce what you do. The extension itself isn't a major ranking factor, so prioritise trust and memorability over chasing a keyword.

What if my preferred domain is already taken?

You have several good paths: add a short brand word, your niche, or a location; try a different but reputable TLD; consider a premium (aftermarket) domain that's for sale; or watch for expiring domains that may become available. If you buy an existing domain, check its history first so you don't inherit a penalty or a poor reputation.

Frequently asked questions

How does the domain availability check work?

The tool queries domain registry data to see whether a name is registered or free, then suggests alternatives for taken names.

Should I always choose a .com?

It's the safest default for trust and recall, but a clean .co, .io, or country-code TLD is perfectly fine if .com isn't available.

Do keywords in a domain help SEO?

A little context can help users, but exact-match keyword domains are no longer a strong ranking factor. Prioritise a memorable, brandable name.

Can I check the history of a domain before buying it?

Yes — check its age and reputation first so you don't inherit problems from a previous owner.
