Domain Suggestion Tool?
-
Does anyone know of a good domain suggestion tool? I've tried some of them, but wasn't happy with the results.
I'd basically like to put in some key words, and get some suggetions.
Thanks.

Have you tried any of these? http://www.searchenginejournal.com/top-tools-for-domain-name-brainstorming/7208/
In my experience the best domain suggestion tool is a group of people brainstorming in a room. Start off by writing everything down, however stupid it seems, as it might lead to something you like, and then run through and eliminate everything unsuitable later. I use thesaurus tools such as those in word processing software, and online.
There are some important things to consider here: http://www.lifehack.org/articles/lifehack/how-to-choose-a-domain-name.html - and I just saw this while I was there: http://www.lifehack.org/articles/technology/how-to-brainstorm-domain-names.html

Agreed. Build a potential list in Excel, and use a free source tool to plug various one's in to hopefully find somethat that works.
I would do the market and keyword research first for whatever you are trying to buy/build, to ensure you get the best possible mix for domain name to keyword relevancy
Other than that, any domain tool with most companies will work in order to spit back variations, or substitutes if certain ones are not available.
Cheers!

I always refer back to a post from 2006 that you can find here: http://www.dailyblogtips.com/200-prefixes-and-suffixes-for-domain-names/
It has a long list of common domain prefixes, suffixes, and other add-ons that can be used to modify a keyword.
I'll take a large list of those in excel, pump them into a bulk domain lookup tool like the one on namecheap.com, and see what comes out.
I've never found an actual suggestion tool that was any good, most are junk.

What is the best tool or method to locate good keywords?
Hi to all, So as I am working towards the best possible site that I can build, what is the best tool or method to find keywords that people would search for that may line up with my website? I have starting using google keyword research tool, or at least I think that is what its called. Also I am using moz, but it shows bing result for traffic. So I guess backing up, do you usually find the keywords with the largest traffic estimates, and then work those words into your web pages? I know to build for people first, then search engines etc. But just curious what you do or use to get an idea on what keywords are popular. Thank You

Plural of exact domain name
Hello, I have the opportunity to buy the plural of an exact domain name in a niche I am interested. I would like to know if it helps to rank on the singular version of the keyword. To illustrate, is the domain cars.com good to rank for the word car? Or online datings for online dating? Thanks a lot.

How to proceed after accidentally misspelling a domain name
Hi guys, I was looking to create a nice microsite and was using the Keyword Analysis tool to help find some good ideas. The problem is that I didn't know how to spell the item I was curious about. When I typed in the wrong spelling, it gave a pretty good result, so I went ahead and bought the domain and started thinking about content. Now I have a domain with a bad name. The correct spelling domain is ranked through the ozone and there's no chance I can compete with those guys. What do I do? Give up on the domain? I'm thinking to go ahead and continue outlining my site as if the domain had the correct spelling all along. But I confused over whether the home page should rank for the correct or incorrect spelling. Any help would be great.

How to interpret the keyword tool?
I've played with the keyword tool a bit. Some keywords have 43% difficulty and some have 55%. What do these difficulty levels mean? I don't really know how to go about it.

Best Keyword Research Tool / Strategy / Approach?
Currently, I list every root word (one word) I can think of for the client. Then start a 2 word keyword section, making every possible connection with my root words. Then move to 3 word, 4 word, and so on. I do this all in a word document and by hand. Does anybody have ANYTHING (tool/strategy) that does something similar? I'm looking for anything that can expedite this process. My manual method makes me feel like I'm always forgetting certain combinations of words.
