Domain Combination Checker

Domain Name Combination Checker

Keyword based domain names have performed very well in the search engines over the past few years. Why?

Most search engine algorithms include some aspect of the following:

extra importance is given to websites that include the keyword in their domain name.
Eg. Searches for "blue widgets" will weight a site called blue-widgets.com higher than an identical one called bobs-site.com, but note: the domain name weighting is variable and has reduced recently.
High importance is given to the text used in plain text links from other websites.
Eg. A directory listing from say the Open Directory Project will include "blue widgets" as the link text for your site, the Search engines use this information to push this result higher in the returned results.

How to use the domain combination checker.

Pick up to 5 words that describe your business, product or service. Type them into the form on the left and click generate. The combinations of words will be placed with and without a hyphen together in all orders and the registration status of the resulting domains tested. Currently this is limited to combing two words at anyone time, avoiding huge waiting times and also not generating domains that would not be useful in the long-term. To get further ideas combine this tool with a thesaurus, use power words (plus, super, giga, wonder) to create very positive sounding domain names.
