What’s in a “not-com” Name?
This is a sponsored post written by me for Name.Kitchen, however the opinions expressed are my own.
It’s been 30 years of stagnancy on the Internet, but hold onto your hats because now there is an amazing new world of choice in naming on the Internet. In a rollout that began in late 2013, hundreds of new domain endings are now available for use when crafting the URL for your website. Isn’t it about time that we get to customize our businesses with a unique dot com? With many business owners it’s hard to stand out in a crowd. You have to have something that will make you different and that difference is a name that now can be personalized to your craft.
Four years ago I didn’t have the option or help of naming my site. It took me quite
some time to figure it out and once I did, I was only offered a .com
extension. I was afraid that I’d be swept up in the massive overload of
other blogs so I knew I had to work extra hard to be different. However, now choosing the name doesn’t have to be difficult because Name.Kitchen is there to help. They offer tips, advice and inspiration to help you jump-start the name brainstorm. You can choose .coffee, .life, .fitness, .deals, .business…anything you’d like!

Mody and Anu Menon ditched their corporate careers to create something
from scratch: a coffee subscription service delivers fresh-roasted
coffee personalized to your palette.- Mody
says switching their domain to a ‘dot-coffee’ (.coffee) has been a
great conversation starter with those curious about their two-year-old
business, and it provides a more obvious digital storefront. “We are an
online business exclusively selling online,” says Mody. “It’s a URL that
implies what we do.”- Read more about why Mody and Menon picked their name and why a not-com here: http://name.kitchen/story/how-one-brooklyn-based-couple-is-brewing-up-big-business/
