    The .co.uk extension sucks, but I think blog3D.co.uk is one of your best, because of the fact that it could be blogging about anything related to 3D

    3D is a new thing so good idea going for this area. The blog one is good but the phones will be as well, if they release 3D phones!

    .co.uk domains are good, providing of course you are targeting the UK

    blog3d.co.uk
    phone3d.co.uk
    phones3d.co.uk

    Are grammatically incorrect.

    It should be:

    3Dblog.co.uk
    3Dphone.co.uk
    3Dphones.co.uk

    Good luck selling those weird domain names to a poor 3D artist on that small island.

    In english we say "3D object" NOT "object 3D"

    It's like trying selling fake "HiPhone" iPhones from china instead of "real" iPhones.

    You may not like the messenger but the message is correct. By having the 3d at the end you are reducing the value of the domains significantly. Where the suggested version might be typed in "naturally" your selection will rely on referrals and searches.

    I'm not a domainer either so I can't tell you how much impact it will have but it is something to consider.

    Looks like you missed the niche - it is about 3D technology, not 3D artists. On this proud island we call Great Britain, it is perfectly acceptable to brand a website how you wish. Who says your business name, blog name, domain name has to be "grammatically correct"? I can see a good, solid brand built around a short and catchy name like "Phones 3D".

    each one has a site just needs seo work etc and a little tidy up

    just ignore him or he will stalk your threads thats his mentality

    thanks for the input :)

    Sure, but then it's the site that has added value to the domain, not the domain itself. A motivated site owner can make virtually any domain work.
