    First you need to identify what keywords you will be targetting and then you need to find a .com name containing your main keyword.

    You should avoid names with more than 15 characters, numbers and hyphens ideally.

    Good luck,

    Rob

    Choosing a good domain name takes a lot of time. You need to sit there with Notepad open and just keep entering the names of various domains that you want. When you have about 20 of them created, you should check to see if the best ones are registered already. You need to be patient, this process can take weeks or even months.

    Choose a domain name that respects:

    a) Keyword related to your topic/business
    b) Easy to remember
    c) As short as possible
    d) .com TLD
    e) Easy to pronounce

    Hope that helps!

    I like using Nameboy.com It gives you some good ideas of word combinations.

    Warmly,

    Nameboy is a very nice tool indeed.

    Here are a few more:

    http://www.dotomator.com/index.html
    http://www.dotomator.com/web20.html

    It takes 1-2 days sometimes to find a good domain that is available.
    The domain name is very important in terms of marketing & SEO so don't rush.

    you need a credit card or paypal account than you should find a registrar, I recommend you to use godaddy, than check the domain that you have in your mind, if it's available follow the steps ;)
