    Hi forum,

    I am after advice from people who have made a few websites and have been successful and get lots of hits daily.

    I am creating a simple to use avatar based chatroom site with features such as multiple chatrooms with guest, member and moderator support. There will also be features such as messageboard, private messages, private chat, video sharing which streams a youtube video to the room in a window for everyone to see and a game system which saves chatters scores. This will all be built into the chatroom.

    Chatters are displayed as avatars which there will be many to choose from and can easily move by single mouse clicking in the room. Where the chatter types a message the message will display inside a speech bubble.

    I would like to attract users who are looking for dating and friendship, or up just for a random chat. Users can be of all ages.

    There will also be support from paid members which in return get there own chatroom who can kick out who they like from there room.


    Attached to this post is a screenshot of the chat.



    So my questions are:

    1. I need to buy a .com domain that is short and easy to remember and preferably 2 words. Alot are already taken so how do i go about this?

    2. When the chat site is finished what is my first step to bring chatters in and make them stay. How can i make it not seem empty?

    Thank you.

    you need a theme to keep the users engaged on the website like babes if visitors are 18+ or general niche like mobile phones which appeal for most of the internet users.

    1. Allow users to sign in using facebook account or another account s also instead of creating new account. Because many people are lazy or not wanna take risk to sign up on new sites.

    2. Allow users to send few messages free so that they will be ready to pay after 2 or three response.
