Can you change a website name later on?

The reason I'm such in a hurry is because I want to get Toolcrazy's website deal. It ends today. I can finish my guitar by the end of January and see if I like to build more too. But I want his Christmas website deal too. What do you guys think I should do?

Jared, go take a look at my site. You'll see that the name I have is RussianwolfWoodworks.com but once you get there I have pages set up for different aspects of what I do.

Penworks
Wandworks
Chessworks

and I can add more as I get into different areas

This is why I am a fan of the XYZ Woodworks or XYZ Studios names. Or simply JaredSchmidt.com such as the other guy is using.
 
which ever you choose. Keep it simple and easy to spell. something that people will easily remember. just in case you don't have a card or paper to write it down on,

Yes, normally you can 'change it' - most commonly by adding the new address and revamping the site, but letting the old one still point there. If you're going with Toolcrazy, I'd ask him... He can give you excellent advise to help, I'm sure.
 
Do what you wish, just remember, every letter is one more chance for people to mistype.

Because YOU know your name, does NOT mean THEY will.
 
I know you want to get the holiday special on the site but it sounds like you are rushing into it. Personally I think you are better off giving this much more thought than trying to get the deal. The name of your site will represent your business and you. The right name can bring in a lot of business becuase it is easy to remember and represents your products. It means something to people. The wrong name will be quickly forgotten, mis-spelled or not easily found when people do searches.

I think you are rushing an important business decission.
 
Jim has a point, an online store is a lot of work. And yes a domain name is very important. Things to remember on a domain name.

Must be easy to spell.
Must be memorable.
Must be easy to give verbally.

The hardest part is coming up with something that is all of the above and available.

Also, domain names don't necessarily need to be your business name. My business is
TFW Designs and my domain is http://handmade-pens.com

And what is a Google or a Godaddy or a Yahoo. But, you know who they are and how to get to them.
