Ideas for website name

AHAHAHAHH!!!!knowing the company name would help, since it makes the most sense to use the company name as the domain name (assuming its not already taken). General rules of thumb...
- keep it simple, no acronyms (warrantyLOLROFLLAMO.co.uk isnt all that easy to remember)
- stick to .com and your countries TLD (.co.uk I would assume). Anything else is a waste of money.
- company name is the best, if you can get it
- try to avoid localisation (warrantylondon.co.uk etc)
- hypens are ok if you really have to, but people never remember they're there and end up on the wrong site if someone has the non-hyphenated version
lots already registered or for sale.
what about some of these or similar
www.totalwarranty.co.uk
www.repairprotection.com (or .co.uk)
www.maintenanceprotected.com (or .co.uk)
www.carshield.co.uk
www.carwarrantyextend.co.uk
www.carfixcover.com (or co.uk)

It's not going to be directly related to an existing company so I don't think that will play too much part here.
Business is slow and there's a whole load of enquires online made every month that I need as we're being missed out.
If you're going to be relying on search engines for a lot of your traffic, give yourself a head start and use terms people will be searching for in the domain name, it gives you a fair wedge of relevancy 'points' with Google. something like 'vehiclewarranties.co.uk' would be good, but it appears to be registered and 'for sale' at the moment, in my experience you'll be quoted a four figure number to buy the domain from the 'prospectors'.Business is slow and there's a whole load of enquires online made every month that I need as we're being missed out.
If search engines are your only traffic source, you're going to need some serious search engine optimisation and/or a pay per click campaign which I would expect to be pricey given the competition in the market - that's a whole other discussion though.

Good points raised. I want to avoid pay per click as there are 400,000 warranty hits in the UK alone every month so I'd need NASA to calculate my bill.
You pay up front and your ad is only shown until your cash runs out, so if you stick a daily limit of £100 on the advert and a click costs you £1, you obviously get 100 clicks before the advert is withdrawn for the day. If you get 2 or 3 qualified leads which convert from those 100 clicks its probably been money well spent. I'm not sure how much a 'click' would be for your keywords but if there is high volume and lots of competition I'd expect £100 to go very quickly! Sadly getting ahead in the search engines when you're in a competitive market is an expensive game. If you're not going for PPC and just going for Organic results you're looking at at least a month before you're in a respectable position within the google results, and much longer before you make 1st page, assuming your page is well optimised. I'm not trying to be the harbinger of doom here, but IME people put too much faith in simply being found on google without spending money on it.hth
