How Do I Know if a Shopify Name Is Available?

Last updated on October 2, 2022 @ 3:56 am

The first step is to head over to Shopify and enter the name you want for your shop in the search bar. If the name you want is available, it’ll say “domain available” beneath the search bar.

If the name you want is already taken, it’ll say “domain not available” and suggest some alternatives.

If the name you want is available, congratulations! You’re one step closer to setting up your own shop.

If the name you want is already taken, don’t worry. There are a few things you can do.

One option is to try a different spelling of the name you want. For example, if “Shopify” is already taken, you could try “Shoppify” or “Shopefy”.

If that doesn’t work, you could try adding a word to the beginning or end of the name you want, like “myShopify” or “ShopifyHQ”.

PRO TIP: If you are considering starting a Shopify store, it is important to choose a unique name for your business. You don’t want to choose a name that is already in use by another Shopify store. To see if a shopify name is available, go to shopify.com and enter the name in the search bar. If the name is available, you will see a message that says “Congratulations, this domain is available!” If the name is not available, you will see a message that says “Sorry, this domain is not available.”

Another option is to use a different domain extension. Instead of “.com”, try “.net”, “.io”, or “.co”.

You could also try using a country-specific domain extension like “.us” or “.ca”.

If you can’t find an available shop name that you like, don’t give up! Keep trying different combinations until you find one that works for you.

Entering a desired shop name into Shopify’s search bar will reveal whether or not the domain is available. If it is available,Congratulations!

However, if the domain is not available, do not worry because there are still options. Try a different spelling of the word, adding words to the beginning or end, or use a different domain extension. If all else fails, keep trying until something works!
