New domain name brainstorming tool

January 16, 2010

MakeWords domain search website launched a new way to perform domain search – a feature created based on requests by our users at branding and advertising agencies.

Name Brainstorming can be used by individuals or teams that work with potential concepts, keywords and phrases to be used when creating a new name. Such words, or even lengthier text passages can be entered into the domain name brainstorming form. The resulting compound names are a random combination of all the words entered, plus there is an option to add additional random prefixes and suffixes to the names, if the initial results don’t meet the expectations. The set of keywords can be adjusted and searched again to tweak the results.

Another way to use the Brainstorming search is to create random permutations of the keywords entered. Mixing and changing the keyword syllables sometimes produces unique brandable names with available domains. Different permutations are created with each search request.

The Brainstorming tool will be continuously improved, feel free to subscribe to this blog to get the latest updates at MakeWords. Good luck with your quest for domain names!
