localzuk Posted January 23, 2011 Posted January 23, 2011 (edited) As some might know, I'm intending to set up a business this year selling various software systems I've written. However, the name 'Localzuk' doesn't exactly slip off the tongue. So, this is a small contest to name by business. The one I choose will be sent some booze of their choice as a thanks. Ideally, it needs to be a simple word which doesn't need spelling, can easily be 'logoised' and is somewhat unique. Also, needs to have a decent domain available. So, ideas?

featured_spectre Posted January 23, 2011 Posted January 23, 2011 (edited) Right here are a few (all with .co.uk domains available...i checked!! lol) All mine are based on techy language that is not too hard to spell! linkarray (.co.uk) techarray (.co.uk) verticore (.co.uk) gigasphere (.co.uk) infopia (.co.uk) verilink (.co.uk) viaband (.co.uk) vialink (.co.uk) vibeswitch (.co.uk) visinet (.co.uk) Edited January 23, 2011 by featured_spectre
mac_shinobi Posted January 23, 2011 Posted January 23, 2011 localsoft.co.uk appears to be available - follows on from your localzuk ( localsoft ) and don't see anything hard with spelling that.
kmount Posted January 23, 2011 Posted January 23, 2011 localsoft.co.uk appears to be available - follows on from your localzuk ( localsoft ) and don't see anything hard with spelling that. Spooky, I posted that but deleted it once I'd seen the .net/.com's were taken. 1
RabbieBurns Posted January 23, 2011 Posted January 23, 2011 Ive just registered localsoft.co.uk so if you want that your gonna need to share the booze this way too
edutech4schools Posted January 23, 2011 Posted January 23, 2011 RabbieBurns: Ive just registered localsoft.co.uk so if you want that your gonna need to share the booze this way too Why have you done that?
dwhyte85 Posted January 23, 2011 Posted January 23, 2011 That's pretty harsh if you've reg'd it! Are you aiming to get a good ranking on a search engine for what you're doing or just have a cool name?
laserblazer Posted January 23, 2011 Posted January 23, 2011 I think he's joking - Aussie humour is rubbing off 1
GrumbleDook Posted January 23, 2011 Posted January 23, 2011 I'm looking at the same right now too ... unfortunately GDK (GrumbleDook Knows), GDT / GDTech (GrumbleDook Technology) and GDIT are pretty much gone. GDKIT has most domains free though ... (GrumbleDook Knows IT) ... so probably going for that soon.

Are you aiming to get a good ranking on a search engine for what you're doing or just have a cool name? I don't mind about it being cool or not, it just needs to be sorta unique (ie. hopefully the .com of it is available), and it has to be catchy enough for someone to remember and not have to remember how to spell it.
GREED Posted January 23, 2011 Posted January 23, 2011 I set my reedsoft.co.uk up just before xmas, very supprised it was still available as a .co.uk
mac_shinobi Posted January 23, 2011 Posted January 23, 2011 if you ditch the Z and UK part you could substitute the Z for an S ie Locals.com / .co.uk etc ..... simples .... tsk
localzuk Posted January 23, 2011 Author Posted January 23, 2011 TA New Media Hmm... that sounds suspiciously like another business I know of... 1
MK-2 Posted January 24, 2011 Posted January 24, 2011 how about microsoft? its a name ive had in my head a while, sounds quite funky, and i dont think its taken by anyone, so give it a whirl?
LosOjos Posted January 24, 2011 Posted January 24, 2011 Local Systems? .co.uk, .com etc all available: Domain search - 123-reg orders EDIT: spelling FAIL .com is gone (I've edited the link now)
LiamH Posted January 24, 2011 Posted January 24, 2011 LZsoft has most free (lazysoftware ) Localware has most free This is harder then it sounds
RabbieBurns Posted January 24, 2011 Posted January 24, 2011 what about just the initials of somehitng like LocalZUkSoft so like LZUK.com or LUKS.com ... not checked if they are available
Hightower Posted January 24, 2011 Posted January 24, 2011 My two idea's both link to where you live. Something like somersoft, or minesoft.
