What's a good, short name for a Search Engine? I see alot of: ...seek.com ...find.com ...search.com Is there any other words which can describe a search site?
doesn't need to be a "search" or "find" synonym. Break out and create your own brand. If you can keep a brand to two to three syllables, you should be ok. As far as synonyms go, I prefer the words "sniff", "grok", or "snort" since those have geeky chic connotations and sound a little out of the norm.
You could use terms like: pounce, grab, or capture, but I think some memorable un-related term may be best.
Think about some of the biggest names like Google and Yahoo. They certainly weren't synonyms for the word search but they created a brand with them. Be creative and don't pen yourself in by having to come up with a synonym
I have a couple domains that may work and that I would be happy to make available/sell. netprospectors.com or youshouldknow.com cheers Frank
I agree with a couple of the others here. I don't think you should look for a synonym for search, 'cos if you go for a new generic name and build on it, you will be able to expand it in the future. Ex: Two years down the line, it might be the most popular search engine around!! Then, you might want to expand into other areas, which will be possible if you have a general brand name rather than a URL specifically related to "search".
