Do you have to choose a domain name before you can develop a site?
 

I don't know if it's some weird neurotic or OCD thing, but I can't seem to start development on a site until I've chosen the domain name. I think there's only been one time where I used a provisional name to start development, every other time I have to choose and reg the name first. Anyone else with me? :1orglaugh

same here in most cases unless i buy a developed domain

It's a good question and I would say to get the idea and pick a really excellent domain name first.
Sometimes browsing available names can bring the idea for the site too.
