To have your own website you must have a unique domain name. Thousand of domain name is being reserved everyday. So you may not get your desired domain name free that usually occurs. In case of such situation you have to choose the alternate domain name nearly relevant to you fist choice. you may use "-" between two words. Or there are many extension such as .net,.info etc available you may choose the best one that suits you best. There are many site online that provide that provide free domain name if you purchase hosting from them and offers many special offer. You may also visit their services and then take final decision.

Hi Bonzay!
Thanks for so useful information. Yeah, a hyphen can be added to domain, or you can change some letters in it, for intstance, "s" to "z", etc.

Thank you for the letter. I'd like to add that a domain name should be also catchy, desriptive, memorable and hard to mispell.

Type-ins are domains that get traffic/visitors (directly in the URL address bar) without any need for search engines .There are a couple types of type-in domains. High profile generic words like Hospital.com , Cars.com , Music.com without much struggle you can see that those types of names are valuable because for as long as the internet resembles today those names will bring in type-in traffic . These types of names raely ever "drop" anymore, especially in .com.

Keyword domains are domains that may or may not have type-in traffic .The main value when looking for keyword domains are looking for keywords that have high search value , you can use a tool like word tracker or overture suggestion tool without extension.
