forceoflight is an unknown quantity at this point
keywordtube or keyword

Greetings,

I have decided to establish youtube clone, which would use clip-share script. Videos would be targeted to one "pet breed" and site would be localized. At the moment I dont't want to publish my pet.

Currently I am not sure, which domain I should use. I have been thinking about following domain names:

breeds.ccTLD,
breedtube.ccTLD,
breedtube.tv or
breeds.tv.

Actually "breeds" prefix is already taken, but we have a very similar word that means pretty much same thing, but google keyword tool result is poorer 110 000 vs. 18 100. Keyword tool give 823 000 result for Tube and "breed" have 165 000.

I have also been thinking to use breedtuubi.ccTLD, breedtuubi.tv. Tuubi is some kind of translation for Tube word. It sounds good and could be very brandable. Additionaly one pretty famous tv-program a-studio have published lately atuubi web page. It is advertised as a "current affairs programme in Internet".

What comes to .tv domain is that first finnish .tv program is lately launched, which is opettaja.tv (teacher.tv).

If you have any opinions about my domain name problem and overall about my clip-share project I would love to hear 'em! Perhaps you know, if there is some well running localized youtube clones for specific field.

Regs,
FoL

I would do some keyword research with the Google keyword estimator and see if you can find a keyword phrase with the breed you are looking for. Something like "breed videos" would be perfect.

The keyword research will also let you know how to optimize your site, and what to use in the text on the site.

I would not use "tube" unless you think people are going to search for or remember that. I would use "videos" or "movies".

Since you are going to have a site, the domain is not as important as it would be if you were going to park the domain, where you need every possible advantage for traffic.

In my opinion the best domain would be something like breed.cc or breeds.cc, or a .ws or another TLD that makes sense for you. The .TV would be ok also, but I don't like the more expensive TLDs. :-(

Tuubi is not going to mean anything to English speakers as far as I know, but targeting another language is cool and may give you an edge, since so much is about English... But if you want to stick with English and can't find anything good in the keyword research, use something good that people can remember, like "breed lover" or "breed dog videos".

Good luck!
