A few years ago we were really struggling with naming a new company and its associated product launch.
We came up with a product name the client liked immediately, but finding a company name and available .com domain was proving much more elusive. In frustration, I turned to looking at expired domains. Sites such as Name.com offer an expired domain search option that allows you to enter in a string of keywords and find domains that have recently expired. After a few searches, I found the perfect name and associated URL and within 2 hours the client had approved it. Mission accomplished.
