Over the last 10 years, I have managed to come up with over 1,000 blog name ideas that I used to start a minimum of 100 blogs. Yes, you read that right, I have started over 100 blogs during the last 10+ years. That means that I probably made far more errors when it comes to blogging than you have, lol! It also means that because I made so many mistakes with blog names I have actually increased my chances of getting closer to success. The one thing I have learned is that you will probably be never 100% happy with the name you finally choose. You will, however, be sufficiently content that you did your due diligence and that you chose the best possible name at the time. You can easily spend a lifetime coming up with blog name ideas without starting a blog if that is your long-term business plan. In this blog post, I will spend time with you outlining the reason why you should choose a good name and where to get the inspiration. I will also advise on the best tools to help you find great blog name ideas.

Why Bother Choosing A Good Blog Name Well, the truth is that a blog name is like a label that describes what your blog is about and it also makes it memorable. If you have any experience doing research online you will come to realise that there are hundreds of thousands of blogs that deliver information. What makes a handful stand out among the masses are a few things: * The name of the blog* The experience of using their site* The quality of their information* Social proof* Can you trust them? I know some of this sounds almost hard to relate to but the truth is every day thousands of people go online to solve a problem. There are also many resources online that can help them solve that problem but at the end of the day, they choose to use 1-2 of those blogs. Why do you think they did that? When was the last time you purchased something online? Do you remember why you chose the site that you did the transaction with? >Need Help Creating Your Blog?

Popular Blog Name Examples Let's spend some time looking at a few popular websites so that you really get a chance to understand the importance of a blog name. Amazon is the world's largest e-commerce site but before they became popular no one knew about them. Strip Amazon of their social proof, big reach, vast websites, brand and money and it is simply a name. When I hear the name I think of a big river in the Amazon forest. Let's look at a smaller company that represents a blog. Airtable is a good example of a smaller site. When I first heard the name I thought it had something to do with tables (spreadsheets). Lemons and Basil is another good one as it tells me that it is something to do with food and it is indeed a food blog.
