Do your research to determine what you want to call your company. Find out if you can legally use that name and find out if you can use the domain name. There is a couple places you can go find domain names, Did you know there are many domain names that are deleted, that people have not used, or renewed. You can go to deleteddomains.com and you can find some names there that could be huge value to you.
What I mean by that, there are domains that have been attached to websites and have been seasoned over time. Meaning they have been on line for a period of time, and thus they have page rank that you can access now. When you are considering domain names for your company or product, check this out. This is a great resource and great tool for you. Go there and look, see what you can find.
When you go and get the domain names; get the .com and the .net also. If you want go ahead and pick up the other ones .org and .info. It’s not as necessary. The only time you want to get those is when you want to protect your company. Essentially .com is the number one extension you want to get.
If you cannot find the .com for what it is you want, don’t get it. Change the domain name around so that you can get the .com. This is the number one used extension worldwide. Don’t get a .org or .net. For one thing you loose your credibility if you get the .net. Believe it or not when people look at that, it doesn’t look as professional and you don’t have the same presence initially. It is almost like it is second rated. In this case, think about the domain names that you are going to use.
