Web Hosting Talk : Advertising Forums : Domain Names Advertising : Domain Name Requests : Looking to drop $500-$1000 on a good hosting name

[NexDog]

Tried thinking of a good name but nothing is available. So I'm looking to just buy one. Is there a place that lists hosting names for sale?

[websplash]

I'm guessing you're talking about domain names and not IP (intellectual property)? Have you looked at sedo.com, sitepoint etc?

[BH-Rob]

whats wrong with HostNexus as in your sig?

Surley $500-$1000 could be spent on a new server? or a couple of good nights out??

[NexDog]

Nothing wrong with HostNexus and I would never rebrand that. I'm thinking of getting into the unlimited game which is why I need a different company.

[NexDog]

I looked at sedo and the prices for domains with "host" in the are simple ridiculous.

Godaddy also has a domain shop type thing.

Also check out NamePros.com forum, super good place to get a deal on a domain name.

If you like a domain, contact the domain owner and make an offer. I've bought some domains through the years that way, including this one.

Same $1,000 and think of a name. I would much prefer a few nights or a new server then spend it on a domain name. Even if I REALLLLY wanted it .. like a few company names I'm severely jealous of

In my opinion it's a very important to choose a good name. If you need to spend money to do so then go for it. A server can be bought at any time but changing your name is not so easy.

I agree. A good name is marketing itself and easy to remember.

All the best.

Save the money mate. Sometimes, you just gotta think "harder" and be more creative. Once you find a great name, you'll be happy you saved the money

1k on a domain? How rich are you?

Be creative, what's your favorite food/place/game/thing? Name it after that. It'll come to you eventually.

$1K is not a lot for a good domain.. I won't discuss what we've both spent, and sold domains for throughout the years but it was a lot more than that. There is a lot of value in some domains and that's what it is all about at the end of the day.

[codu]

Obviously, for the domain dedicatedserver.com or hosting.com, I would pay a lot more than 1k.

But it looks like the OP has just run out of ideas, not worth fishing out 1k, when you could be creative/original, and only have to spend $10.

I don't know if this would work but have you ever thought of making a contest to see who can come up with the best hosting name for you and maybe offer the winner a year of free hosting or something of the like.
