Domain name=Pulling my hair out!
I had no idea how long it would take me to find a domain name that I liked, made sense, and wasn't already taken. But I think I finally found one that I like, isn't taken, makes sense, and is catchy. (Takes deep breathe) That is all lol.

It can be tough, but choosing the right one is important because you don't want to have to change it later. Good job on finding one you like!
Having one that's catchy is the most important. A domain that makes sense is good, but not necessary, but if you can get maybe one keyword in it and have it be catchy, then that's the best.
Exact match keyword domains are bad, regardless of what anyone may try to preach. SEOs who've been awake the past 2 years will tell you to avoid things like: www.bestwirelessinkjetallinoneprinters.com. Using a domain like that will ensure you won't get ranked.
"makes sense, and is catchy" is great, but you can also do well with a brandable name that's nonsensical. If you think of a clever name that sounds cool, but maybe doesn't make a ton of sense on paper - it can still be a great choice.
It's the content that matters, not the domain. Think big, and try for a 'cool' name that people will want to recommend verbally to their friends. I also recommend sticking within 10-12 letters if ever possible.
And definitely avoid hyphens.
Cheers, osmith!
Good job! It's okay to spend some serious time finding the right long-tailed key word and the right domain name. Your time spent doing that will pay off. I spent a week finding my key word! No matter what you read or learn, these are the most important steps! So be proud! Way to go!

Soooo.... Is your domain name ... pullingmyhairout.com .... is it ... takesdeepbreathe.com .... (of course, it's neither) LOL. This begs the question...what domain name did you settle on? I've read before that if you wait overnight (even this those few hours), it will be bought and sold to the highest bidder...
