I found it on net while searching the tips to get right domain for the directory. I thought I should share it with you all.

How many times have you had problems with selecting the perfect name for your directory? Personally for me, the domain name selecting process is extremely painful and time consuming. I can say with confidence in my voice that I spend the most of my time picking the right domain for my directories or sites. Do you do that?
You should always take your time and pick the best domain for yourself since domain name is what people see first before visiting your site. A good domain name should inform a user what your the site is about and attract him or her.
There are generally three ways to come up with a directory name: (1 out of 3)- Be creative, create a trendy name. Having a trendy name is a good way to distinguish your directory from competitors. Forplex is a perfect example of a brand directory name. Unfortunately, trendy name is of the hardest domain names to promote at the begging.
Here are some general tips that you should follow when you pick a domain for your directory as well as for a website 3 out of 5)- The Shorter is Better. Always try to have as shorter domain as possible since short domains are easier to remember, easier to tell friends and easier to type into the browser.
- Register expired domain names. It might be a good action to register an expired domain name if it has good Alexa Rank, some backlinks and possibly even PR. You can use SnapNames to find out and register expired domain names.
- Try not to use numbers. Numbers also tend to confuse users. For example, is it 7directory.com or sevendirectory.com or maybe even seventhdirectory.com. If you want to register a domain name with numbers then register all possible domains that user might type into the browser when he hears about the site.
In conclusion, the best domain name should be simple to remember, short, and easy to spell. I would also like to say that domain choosing process is completely up to you. Follow the tips written above and do what you think is right. Try not to ask for suggestions on forums since the suggested domain names can be easily taken by someone else.
