FAQ

How do I come up with a name for an online store?

Start from the feeling or category you sell, not one product, so the name still fits when you add lines later. Keep it short and spellable: say it aloud and have someone type it back cold, since shoppers reach you by search and word of mouth. Skip names tied to a single SKU or your home street, which box you in fast.

Should I use .shop or .store, or do I need a .com?

A .com is not required, but it still wins recall and trust, so we rank it first. The .shop and .store extensions read clearly for ecommerce and can be more available, though some retail TLDs renew at more than their first-year price, so check the renewal before you commit.

How do I make sure a store name is not already taken or trademarked?

An available domain is not the same as a clear trademark. Run a knockout search on the USPTO database for your product class, then check the matching handle on Instagram and TikTok and search Amazon and Etsy so a competitor is not already there. We show live availability, but legal clearance is a separate step.
