    I opened a thread asking DP'ers to sell me their best domain for a Search Engine I am planning to start.

    Here is a list of the interesting names I have received till now:

    joopster.com
    roori.com
    swerp.com
    vooby.com
    ubunk.com
    vyzyt.com
    gatih.com
    zwee.com

    I want to ask everybody's opinion here -

    Which domain name do you think:

    1. has the highest recall value (is easy to remember)
    2. is easy to spell and type
    3. is brandable

    I'd appreciate if you can help me out here and post your choice in this thread.

    Thanks a lot :)

    I'm not crazy about any of them & would keep looking. Have you tired looking at lake or small town names on a map? I picked up some interesting ones (for myself) looking at Australian & Canadian maps.

    you can launch any kind of sites for using these two domains,
    vooby.com and zwee.com,
    they are brandable.

    I can't say I really like any of them but of the bunch zwee stands the most.

    Try to also think of the order of letters and how easy it is to type the name. This can be huge. The word doesn't even have to make sense at all.

    Regards,

    I like joopster.com the best. It has all three of your requirements, not to mention the two O's, which the good search engines seem to have these days. :D
