Published 2024-06-11. Updated 2026-10-04.
Brainstorm the perfect domain name with ultimate flexibility using Handreg.io’s Word Combiner! This tool allows you to mix and match different word groups to generate a plethora of creative domain name possibilities. Here’s how you can make the most of it:
Step 1: Add Word Groups
Begin by navigating to the Word Combiner tool on Handreg.io. Click the "Add another word group" button to add as many word group boxes as you need. Each box has a dropdown of starter lists, such as Animals, Colors or Tech. These groups will serve as the building blocks for your domain name combinations.
Step 2: Customize Your Word Groups
Customize each word group by using the dropdown menus or typing your own terms. This flexibility allows you to tailor the combinations to suit your brand, product, or niche perfectly. If a word group isn’t working for you, use the remove button in the corner of the box to remove it.
Step 3: Enter Your Desired Extension and Check Mode
In the Extension field above the "Combine" button, enter the desired domain extension (e.g., .com, .net, .io). A leading dot is added for you, and the extension has to be one the tool knows.
Next, choose your desired check mode:
- As You Go: Only the 20 names of the page you are looking at are checked, the first time you open that page. Pages you have already visited are remembered. Sorting, copying a column and exporting then work on the 20 rows of the page you are on.
- All at Once: Every name is checked before you get the full tally. This takes longer for large lists, but sorting, copying and exporting then cover every row.
- No Check: No availability lookups are made and the Status column is hidden. This is useful if you only want the list, which you can then export.
Step 4: Combine the Words
Once you have set up and customized your word groups, hit the "Combine" button. The tool will generate a flood of creative possibilities by mixing and matching your word groups. Depending on the check mode, the combinations are checked for availability as you page through them or all at once, so you can concentrate on the viable options.
Step 5: Review the Generated Results
The results are presented in a table with the following columns:
- Combination: Displays the possible domain name combinations created from your word groups.
- Length: Indicates the length of each combination.
- Domain: Shows the potential domain name (e.g., myawesomewebsite.com).
- Status: Indicates the availability of the domain (whether it’s taken or available).
- Confirm Availability: Provides a link to a registrar to confirm the availability of the domain.
- RegX: Links to our Taken TLD Checker tool to see other registered extensions of the second-level domain.
- Appraisal: Links to the GoDaddy appraisal tool to check the valuation of the domain.
- Dotdb: Links to the DotDB website to see other registered extensions of the same combination.
- Semrush: Links to Semrush for detailed SEO analysis of the domain.
- Archive: Links to the Archive.org page for the current domain.
Step 6: Sort and Copy the Results
To streamline your review process, you can sort the results by:
- Combination: Alphabetically, to quickly find specific combinations.
- Domain: Alphabetically, to organize and compare domain names easily.
- Length: By the length of the combinations, helping to prioritize shorter, more memorable domains.
- Status: To quickly identify which domains are available and which are taken.
Next to the domain values, you will find copy icons. You can press the copy icon next to each domain to copy it individually, or use the multi-domain copy icon to copy multiple domains at once. This feature makes it easier to secure and manage your desired domain names.
Step 7: Export the Results
Once you’ve reviewed and sorted the generated combinations, you can export the results to a CSV file for further analysis or record-keeping. Simply click the "Export To CSV" button, and a file will be downloaded to your device.
