The process of finding a good domain name for your online business can be frustrating and time consuming. Readymadecom can help jump-start the process by offering up a list of predetermined names: each accompanied by a conceptual framework indicating market positioning and suggested visual imagery which can be used in logos and home pages. This saves several steps in the process of starting an online business:
- Brainstorming a business concept
- Finding a shortlist of domain name possibilities which effectively describe the products or services offered
- Endlessly plugging in potential domain names to find one that has not already been registered
- Enlisting the help of a graphics designer and webmaster to find a preliminary logo and web page visual concept
In addition, we provide free links to online resources for SEO (keyword) optimization and acces to a downloadable application which may aid in the process of finding new names for companies and products.

Establishing a web presence: Names, Pictures and Words |
The process of choosing a good name for a new product, company, web domain or rock band can be very complex and time consuming. Because there are so many elements contributing to the effectiveness of a domain, business or brand name, the selection process is not something that can be automated by a naming software application. A good name should take into account such factors as:
- Meaningfulness - Does the name describe (or at least suggest) the characteristics of that which is to be named?
- Distinctiveness - Is the name different enough to distinguish it from other competing brands or businesses?
- Sound Attributes - Is the sound the name makes when pronounced pleasant or abrasive? In the case of Death Metal Bands, it may well be desirable to have a name that sounds obnoxious. In most other cases it would be better to have a name that is melodic or catchy: something that sticks in the mind and is not too difficult to pronounce.
- Is it Evocative? - The word(s) in a name might sound or look like other words that could cause pleasant or unpleasant associations. It's a good idea to try to imagine what others might think of when they see the word or words that make up the name.
Because of all these human factors, it is very unlikely that any computer application could churn out a good name for your enterprise, product or pop group. However, there is one part of the naming process that can be programmed into a software application: random selection. There is usually some element of randomness either in finding the pool of candidate words or in making the final combination. The Grateful Dead derived their name from a combination of two words randomly selected from the dictionary. Either they were amazingly lucky to have picked out a catchy combination after only a few tries, or they spent a lot of time trying other random combinations. You have probably heard about the hypothetical scenario of an infinite number of monkeys randomly hitting typewriter keys: at some point in time along their endless journey into infinity, these monkeys will type the complete works of William Shakespeare. (It is a mathematical certainty). The moral of the story in this context is that the more random combinations of letters and words that you can come up with, the more likely you are to stumble across something worthwhile. That's where computer software comes in...

Check your web page's keyword density |
Keyword Analysis is a function performed by search engines to determine which pages to return in response to a search request. Today's search engines are pretty sophisticated, so it is not enough to stuff your web pages with a bunch of repetititous keywords. For example, if a given keyword constitutes more than 10% of your page content, it may be ignored by search engines as an obvious ploy to increase your ranking. There are differing opinions about what keyword density you should be shooting for, but the average seems to be in the range of 3%.
The InterAnnex Keyword Density Analyzer is a web application which performs an analysis on a web page URL that you submit. You will get a ranking of the 50 top words used on the page including how many times each word is used and what percentage this represents of the total significant* content.
(*many simple, often-used words like "is", "I", "the" and "to" are ignored by search engines and this online tool)
To check the keyword density of an Internet web page, type the URL below:
