On our forum today we’re discussing ways to brainstorm domain name ideas for your professional writing website or blog. Of course you can always use your own name or your name plus “writing” for a domain name. But sometimes a brandable or keyword-rich domain name is more fitting. I often go this route and it usually pays off in search rankings. This site is one example. I offer writing services at ProBusinessWriter.com. And I previously used FirstRateContent.com. All of them worked out well.
If you’re looking for a similar kind of domain name for your site or blog, I’ve done some of the work for you. Here are some great potential domain names for writers. As of the time this was posted, they were all available for registration.
BestTechWriting.com – A service site for a technical writer.
BusinessWritingTeam.com — If you market services for a small writing group you manage.
CopywriterForSEO.com — A keyword-rich option for a business site for an SEO copywriter.
EpicWriting.com — A potentially brandable business site domain.
eWritingCoach.com — Possibly for a blog that teaches new writers about writing for the Web (while promoting coaching services)
FreelanceGhostwriting.com — Could be used either to market ghostwriting services or as a blog targeting other ghostwriters.
FreelanceWriterGuy.com — A potentially fun and casual blog or service site domain. Also potentially very brandable.
GeekWriting.com – I love this one. Again, it could be a fun and brandable domain, especially for a tech writer.
PlanWritePublish.com – I could see this one being a blog on writing and taking a book to market (either independently or pitching publishers).
WritingAQuery.com – Maybe use it for a niche blog on writing effective query letters.
WritingCards.com – You could use it for a niche site for greeting card writers and those looking to break into the market.
WritingJokes.com – A potential blog for a comedy writer.
These are just a few examples from a quick search. Play around on registrars’ sites, keyword research tools, and domain generators to see what else you can come up with.
Happy hunting!
