Test the domain name before you buy or register

Lets face it we are all so absorbed in the world of our industries and business that we can convince ourselves that we have found a great domain name.

A good domain name should instantly tell your visitor what you sell or the information or services that you offer. If the name is technical or specialized to your industry you will have to test it on junior members of your organization.
