ahhh...I am searching for a good domain name and just curious what's worth looking for?

does something like www.kw1kw2.com get picked up by google for each keyword? Or is www.kw1-kw2.com better? And how about going for www.kw1_kw2.com just to get SE hits...worth it?

A really good domain name is a single word that people search for often. i.e. cheese.com

yes, but I am sure most one word domains are taken...how about two words?

bluecheese.com
blue-cheese.com
blue_cheese.com

would google get "cheese" from "bluecheese" and are the other two worth it?

thanks for any info ;-)

All the obvious names have been taken. Nowadays, you need to shock the surfer with something memorable. porn4losers.com or imgonnakillyoutgp.com would be good examples. It's offensive, but it sticks in your mind.

I just got sexyfag.com

I'll be offering out free emails to half the people on here
ie kak_azn @ sexyfag.com

thats a fairly common name you would think was taken but it wasnt. And its a keeper for sure. I reged a few really nice ones a couple hrs ago. All worthwhile

The thing you have to think about is the length, If it matches the concept of your site, and If it will stick in the minds of your surfers. Good luck in finding a name that is worthwile and try ebay once and awhile something good comes up for auction...
