    I've worked with SEO quite some time now, and I've decided it's time for me to start my own SEO Consultancy. I've prepared everything, I just need a nice name.

    I'll be giving out $50 to the person that comes up with the best name.

    Requirements:

    • <name>.com MUST be available.
    • The name should have something meaningful in it
    • The name should be memorable and easily brandable
    • The name should be able to pass "the phone test"

    Just to explain Phone Test to anyone who doesn't get it.

    Phone test is simply the ability to speak the name of the company to someone and have some easily remember and spell it.

    Examples:

    Bad:
    SEO4U (Why is it bad? If I told you SEO 4 U over the phone you could think four you or for you)
    SEOXperts (Even though making names with an X is a cool thing, this name could be confused with SEO Experts)

    Good:
    SEOKing
    SEOGuru
    HighRankers
    HighRankingServices

    First of all I'd like to thank you all for submitting so many names.

    Second of all I'd like you all to check whether the .com name is available. Some of you forget this!

    Third of all, no offense, but I'm not looking for a name like e.g. SeoKING, GoodSEO etc. The name has to be a bit more unique. I'll give you some examples of internet marketing company names that I like:

    AddVisors
    NetInvade
    InFlow

    Alle these ARE taken. But they all have some things in common:

    Short, Memorable, Meaningful, Professional and so on.

    Kasper,
    My examples were meant to help others pass the "phone test", as I don't have any good examples so I thought I would help others.

    Another tip, hyphens are annoying when telling people over the phone.

    #Imvain2: I know that it was just examples to illustrate the phone test. I just thought I'd use some of the names as examples.

    Ahh, sorry for my misunderstanding. I just wanted to make sure that those cheesy names weren't actual suggestions.

    I went with mr thesaurus

    Summit Visors
    Apex Visors
    Prime Visors
    Vertex Visors

    Summit Ranks
    Apex Ranks
    Prime Ranks
    Vertex Ranks
