A good while back I posted a list over (then) available cool domain names. Most of them were taken by domain sharks. Here is a new list, this time with a twist: To avoid that they are snapped up by people who have no interest in using them, I have become a domain shark myself. But a low budget one. Each domain is available for 50 bucks, which won’t make me a internet millionaire, but will cover my expenses. If needed, I can help you get started with your own blog, by setting up your very own WordPress installation, and/or — for a fee — I can do customized work.

Available .com domain list

So, without any further delay, here is my new list of cool & available .com domain names:

• antidivine.com
• chiefest.com
• eyeish.com
• firearmed.com
• godred.com — must be perfect for a Red One owner/operator
• noodleism.com — for believers in the Church of the Flying Spaghetti Monster
• normaliser.com
• roxanes.com — if your name happens to be Roxane
• surfmanship.com — isn’t that one just cool?
• tridaily.com — if you plan to blog three times per day
• untakeable.com

Just leave a quick comment if you are interested, and I get back to you. (The e-mail address you leave will only be visible to me.)
