Rebrand: website name

[patriotnews]

So as part of a major project to kick off next year, I am going to rebrand my website.

the name I wanted is parked and doesn’t respond to offers to purchase (been trying for 6+ months), so I am looking at options.
Let’s say for the sake of clarity, I wanted the name: keywordprofessional dot com(not what I wanted)
I can add “the” to make it: thekeywordprofessional

I can change a word:
Keywordwizard.com
Thekeywordninja.org
ABCpro.info -ABC is a industry 3 letter abbreviation for the


I can go with other vanity TLDs:
Keywordprofessional.guru
Keywordprofessional.expert
Thekeyword.ninja
TheABC.guru


I can go with my full name:
First middle last dot com
- which would work, but I worry about it being my full name, which I never go by.

This project will be encompassing:
-podcast
-books: physical and ebooks
- YouTube channel
- quizzes
- udemy courses
Plus some more, so you can see how branding myself is important.

I checked and can change names on social media to reflect this Brand shift. No trademark issues.
What would you do?

also, any advice on ensuring I do a quality 301 redirect from my old site(Wordpress) to new site(Wordpress).
I will be using 90% of the same post URLs(a few had junk URLs)
Site currently gets about 50-60 daily visitors, mostly from social media.

What demographic is your target audience?

My demographic audience is:
-business owners/CEOs/presidents: for some of the project aspects
- business managers/directors: for some of the project aspects
- novice niche professionals: for some of it

kind of broad, but different parts of the project focus to different demographics.

Age is primarily: 40+
primarily male
Primarily college educated

I have no issue with the vanity TLDs, I think they can be cute, and have had some good success on projects in the past. But with this one being focused in such a way, I like the “the” suggestion.

I would definitely not use the.

Since you are creating major project I suggest to be board.

ABCpro sounds good in this case but not .info

Just my opinion but I think you need a .com for this group of people.
