Client brief

== INTRODUCTION ==

We are starting a business that offers next-generation Web Design, Web Hosting, and Domain Names. Basically web services for small business owners. The reason I say "next-generation" is because all of our services will by far exceed modern expectations, at more affordable pricing.

== CURRENT NAME ==

Previously, we wanted to use the name "Digital Road", though we have decided not to use this name in favor of a shorter .IO domain name.

== NEW NAME ==

Now we'd like a new .IO domain name. It must be available, we don't want to purchase it from an existing owner. The new name does not have to relate to our services in any way.

== REQUIREMENTS ==

Here's the basic requirements for our new name:

  • It must be a .io domain name
  • Should be short and easy to remember
  • Should not consist more than 2 words (preferrably only 1)
  • Can contain fake (made-up) words
  • Does NOT have to be related to our name
  • Try to stay away from numbers unless it rhymes or is catchy
  • !! IMPORTANT !! Easy to pronounce in American English.

== EXAMPLE ==

One of our competitors is called GoDaddy, and they offer the same services. The name GoDaddy has nothing to do with web design, web hosting, or domain names.

== NAMES WE'VE TRIED ==

Here's a few names that we would have chosen, if they were available:

  • box.io
  • hex.io
  • digital.io

Please try not to take these words and combine them with other words to create a domain, unless it really is superb.

== FEEDBACK ==

We will try to provide constructive feedback when we see something that we like or dislike. It may take some time, however, for this to happen. We won't downvote anyone, but will upvote names we really appreciate.

== CONTEST WINNER ==

As soon as a new name is decided upon, we will close the contest and decide the winner. Thanks in advance to all contributors, and to NameStation for the great service!

Tips for choosing a great business name

Keep it pronounceable

A good business name should be easy to say out loud and spell from memory. If you have to spell it out every time you say it, it will slow down word-of-mouth growth.

.com still beats clever TLDs

Despite hundreds of new extensions, .com remains the most trusted TLD for professional brands. Customers default to typing .com - pick a .com name whenever possible.

Avoid trademark traps

Before you register, run a quick trademark search to make sure the name is clear in your industry. Similar names in the same category can lead to costly disputes later.

Test it in a sentence

Say "I work at [name]" or "Check us out at [name].com" out loud. The name should sound natural, confident, and memorable in everyday conversation.
