Advice on picking a domain name

by rhythmofthecosmos

I've decided that i'm going to switch domain names for one of my sites. I'm trying to figure out the best way to pick them.

I have found a couple that are 12 years old with keyword in domain name but any other advice would be welcome in helping me pick the right domain name.

Thanks

    For starters: .com; no hyphens; the shorter the better; easy to remember

    Also, before you buy an existing domain, you may want to check out the link below:

    Thanks for the link. Just checked it - all clear. Although the domain isn't short. Hard to find a short one in the niche i'm in.

    You could start by thinking this, the domain::
    is easy for Web users to remember and find
    suggests the nature of your product or service
    serves as a strong trademark so competitors won't be able to use a business name or domain name similar to it,
    and     is free of legal conflicts with trademarks belonging to other businesses.
    simple way
