Try as much as possible to
keep things simple and remember to use the characteristics of a domain name
here, i.e a name that is easy to remember and a brandable name. Also try and
stay away from hyphenated names, again the goal is something people can easily remember. Think about the fact that someone may hear about
your site from a friend or article and may not have a chance to write it down.
If it's something easy to remember chances are better that they will still be
able to find it later.
Okay, let's say that you are going to be selling dog lesson videos, then your domain name could be something like doglessonvideos.com or for a better still, doglessons.com. Remember you want that domain name that is going to let people know what your site is about or what you are offering. This is going to be your web identity so you certainly want to get it right and build your site around your identity.
Now if you have an idea for a domain name you can do a search on the net (there are dozens of search options for this) find a domain name search and type in the name you have picked out. It will tell you if it is available or not.
Now also keep in mind that you may not be able to find the exact name that you have picked out since it may already be taken. There are already so many names out there you might have to settle for something close or just a little different from what you originally came up with. However when you do a search it will recommend similar names that you can choose from.
Now when you do a search for your domain name it may also say that (example) yourdomainname.com is already registered to someone else but some domain extensions to domain name are available like, yourdomainname.net or .org is available. And you may choose to go that route but I would suggest staying with a ".com" name even if you have to use something slightly different from what you wanted. After all we all know by now that ".com" is that most recognized on the web today.
