Need help choosing a domain

    I'm looking at buying a domain to make a site. I found one domain, but not sure if it's the best one?

    For example the domain is:

    OlderMail.com

    But I'm afraid if I say it, some maybe think they heard "OldMail.com" later on when they try to go to the site (Word of mouth). The OldMail.com would be doing the same thing as I would also...

    I've searched for awhile, and can't find any good domains besides that one.

    Do you think it would be alright, or should I try to find another one more unique?

    Thanks for the reply... but that wasn't the subject of the site - I was using it as an example so someone wouldn't steal the name I was after... If I do decide to register it. :p

    agreed, if you think a ewn domain name, i will register at my old registrar at once, as domain name only cost you several bucks.
    Someone may get many domain name at hand at the same time.
    It's worth to do it.:D:D

    If you have a little bit of doubt when choosing the domain name I think you should look for more options.

    Once registered and developed it will stay like that. So why to repent later on.

    My opinion would be to look for some other domain name. If you want I can generate domain names and send you the list. I have a software for it.

    Thanks.

    my opinion is that i would register several and choose one as main web,
    the rest can be parked at sedo or others as showed at my signatures space.:)

    When you are in the domain query phase all names look good

    Try to make a list with the ones you like most
    From these exclude the names that they are not as good as the others at the list
    Finally register all the names you can't decide to leave

    Simple but effective way for your mind (not your pocket)
