    hi, We have just launched our beauty saloons in two different regions, we want to register a domain name for our saloon but every good name is already registered, some of them are for sale, can anyone guide me how to choose a perfect domain name.

    Welcome to you MacSporran! You domain name for your saloon must be unique and not similar with every good name that you mention. The combination of your brand name and your field of business to form a new and creative domain name for the unique call to action to the users.

    Go for a brandable domain with a keyword that clearly defines the industry you're in.

    Personally, before I would register a business in the real world I would make sure the domain is not taken. Why might you ask? Because the online world these days are just as important. For example, you have a saloon called Beutilla, but you have a website called beutysalooninthehills.com. So when someone enters "Beutilla" in search engines, it might not show up (Only if your brand is unique and do some SEO). Not just this, but personally l don't like a business that has a completely different domain name, looks unprofessional. But that's my opinion. Either way would still work. But try to keep your business name unique. Something that stands out is always a good start.

    In my opinion, i would advice going for a name brandable, and ensure the uniqueness is 100% outstanding. It really goes a long way.

    Well it's hard since you did the brick name first. I would have done internet name first to make sure it's available. But since you did the brick try using variation.
    If it's Bella Saloon and bellasallon. Com is taken try bellasalooninc or bellasaloonhair. Or some variation where you keep the main part.

    I think at first you should choose names related to your business brand (beauty saloons) with .COM. If it was taken then try .NET, .ORG or ccTLD at your location. If all are taken then you can buy one of them are selling (if you have enough budget). Otherwise you can also add some surfixes to the end of names you choose such as yourname247, yourname360, yourname360,...IMO

    Good luck to you,

    domain name should be unique and must have your targeted keyword..you can add few words before and after you keyword to get a domain name....for example for blogging, we can have iloveblogging.com, blogging007.com, blogging4u.org, bloggingspot.co...this way you can rename you domain and add your targeted keyword...!!!

    To buttress what you've just said, picking a name for a domains is very technical. When picking you should ensure your name is SEO optimised, catchy keyword/ Trending words related to your domain name should be be included.

    Currently need the groups opinion on my current movement, I need promising ads company that i can partner with on my new project, an ads company that will handle my adverts in a more unique manner. Your opinions are highly welcomed.

    If you go for some seo friendly short TLDs, it will not be available.
    I would suggest you to go with brand able domain names, those will be available.
    Here is the recommended article on it: http://ultimeztechnologyblog.blogspot.in/2016/11/stylish-website-design-for-salon-ultimez.html

    Aveda.com is a famous and popular name brand for hair products and saloons. Adora.com would do the same. It would make an excellent, exquisite and elegant name brand and domain name for your saloon business. It is short, unique and catchy, very easy to remember, and it has Premium Letters 'a'. It can create buzz, position you as a true leader and innovator, and reinforce your value proposition in the word. That's powerful. It can convey a culture or a position, and differentiate your saloon business from the rest of the market.
