What about this for a domain name?

Discussion in 'Domain Names' started by rockinaway, Aug 8, 2011.

    I am creating a website which allows people to share their ideas. Obviously, ideas is the key word and so I thought the domain name should be derived from it and also it had to be unusual in a way. So I came up with the domain name iydeah.com 

    What do you think?

    I have no... (sorry, just had to do it)

    apparently exact match domain names don't carry the juice they once did, but remembering the domain is important... I am sure you struggled with the need to balance brevity with wit... but for me it is awkward ... clever, but awkward ... I started playing with this... shareidea.com is for sale... I went to the site... if you consider time cost buying what you want might be worth it

    I can recommend you to visit Sedo or namepros and you will find a wide range of domains available for sale..

    If you are planning to register domain name, it should be unique, short and memorable.

    Well, if you have a lot of money to brand that name, I don't think its a problem. But if you don't intend to work hard to brand that name, forget it.

    I have got plenty of time to brand it. However, I am just asking whether you like the name..

    I dont love misspells (unless its too 'kool'), so I would have rather gone for something like
    (idea, share, open, express) + (board, forum, pad, blog, point, joint, meet)

    Hope it helps : )

    IMO, I always look for domain names, whereby, it can be shared by word of mouth. I'd hate to know that someone came to my site and found it to be awesome, then told there friend in person to go over to iydeah.com

    Don't you think they'll go to idea.com instead? Also, I don't like domain names that gives the impression that I wasn't able to get the original word so I had to go with a workaround whether that may be true or not.

    It would be hard to share via word of mouth because you would have to explain the spelling.

    It really looks interesting but I'm not sure if it's registered or not. If I were you I'd definitely go for it and give it a try.

    I like it because it's catchy but I don't think it would do good as a site with users signing up simply because it's not spelled correctly, but hey you never know until you try ;)

    it does not have to have the word 'idea' inside. Find synomyms that mean idea. Try Thesaurus.com

    E.g. attitude, stlye, way, method etc

    I think this domain would be difficult to remember. It sounds good, but spelling wise it is tough to remember. Get something which is catchy and easy to spell.
