Keep the Domain name as simple as possible
Avoid using numbers as they are hard to remember
Let the domain name be split into the type of business you are into,first half your own defined name and the other half can be the name that is related to your business.
Try to include familiar words into your domain
ex:if you are into accessories that are related to bike, then www.bikeneeds.biz which resembles the needs of the bike.
Never buy similar domain names.
 
First define the Vision of your business.
Look at the Domain names of your competitors.
Find what are the adjectives they target in their domain names.
Find a catchy adjective/adverb to define the vision of your business.
Use it in your Domain name.
Peace.
 
A domain name is the key element of your website and the first thing your visitors will notice. You can create new catchy keywords and use a domain name generator to create a unique domain name. Most important check to see if there are any trademarks already registered in that name.
 
Make it easy to type. Keep it short. Use keywords. Target your geographic area. Avoid numbers and hyphens. Be memorable. Research it. Use an appropriate domain name extension.
 
  1. Use The Right Domain Name Extensions (.com, .org, etc)
  2. Brandable Over Generic.
  3. Short Is Better Than Long.
  4. Make Sure It's Easy To Type.
  5. Make Sure It's Easy To Pronounce.
  6. Avoid Hyphens And Numbers.
  7. Consider Using “Niche” Keywords That Reflect Your Website.
  8. Think Long-Term Over Short-Term.
