      Hi everyone,

      Could you please help me with picking out the right URL for my company's website? We are MoonCreate and we make beautiful clothes. Unfortunately, the domain mooncreate.com is not available and I have to choose between mooncreatebrand.com or mooncreatewear.com

      Which one is better, in your opinion?

      Look forward to receive your suggestions!

      Thank you! 🙂

        Why restrict yourself to a .com domain? There are plenty of other TLDs (Top Level Domains) available and these will all be treated exactly the same as the .com (at least in terms of how Google treats it).

        MoonCreate.Co is available. .Co is a TLD, as you can see here, http://data.iana.org/TLD/tlds-alpha-by-domain.txt

        (Just check this won't cause any legal/branding implications.)

        There will be others, such as mooncreate.clothing, mooncreate.net (both available).

        A few years ago, this types of domains were considered "vanity" domains, but not so much now.

        It's a shame you're not in the UK as MoonCreate.Co.Uk is available.

        Whichever way you go with this, I'd steer you away from MoonCreateBrand.Com as it doesn't give any clues as to what you do; nor is it memorable or dynamic.

        Good luck in your quest.

          Thank you very much! Indeed, MoonCreateBrand.Com doesn't tell anyone if I sell jewelry or do website or make beautiful clothes. Will keep your suggestion in mind. Thank you again! 🙂

            While this is a good idea in most respects, I would be wary of using a Top Level Domain if you plan on using the MozBar to track your DA / PA. Unfortunately Moz's bots can't crawl a lot of TLDs, and you would be stuck seeing a DA / PA of 1 forever (or until they add that TLD to their database, but I assume that will be a long, long time).
