Recommendations for establishing a good business name.
Consider a name that is easy to use, starts with either A, B, or C… and don’t use numbers in the business name (yuck). It would be good to have key words in the name, ie. beauty, fashion, makeup or cosmetics; as this will help you in the search engines ratings greatly. So for a Cosmetics or fashion business you may consider something like: Cosmetics Wholesale or Beautiful You Cosmetics. (just as an example)
If you plan to sell more than just cosmetics, then don’t limit yourself by putting only cosmetics in the name consider adding something like Cosmetics Fashion and more – or Beauty Minerals and More… (shorter would be better, but it does take time to think them up, lol). But don’t put a keyword in your name unless you’re 100% sure you plan to sell that type of product (ie. fashion or makeup or eye-wear)
But again something easy to remember, has keywords, is easy to spell and early in the alphabet. When your site is added to a list if you start with A, B or C, then you’ll be more at the top of that list! You don’t have to take all the recommendations, but the more you get the easier it will be for people to remember, return and recommend!
Another important thing to consider when choosing a good business name is to check the domain name (scroll down to the bottom of the HostGator page from the link I shared, and click where it says Domain names, that’ll help you check to see if your business name has already been taken or not.
If you plan to sell on ebay then look on ebay to see if there is a store already using that name. It’s important that your business is consistent, unique, easy to remember and easy to spell, so that your customers can find you no matter where they are (ie. home, school, office, etc).
