The Name Game
Another key to success is the name. Think of a name for your site. If it is too long, use acronyms. It may reflect your business, organization, or product. Do not use hyphens or underscores. In most cases, one will think of using .COM as the top-level domain name. If the name is already taken, then try using a country code such as .PH or .COM.PH. You may check the availability of a name through the Web site of a Philippine-based domain registrar at http://www.com.ph.
Try this. Think of a domain name for the following organizations:

Blue Ribbon Cakes, Pastries, and More
