Your domain name has to be easy to say.
You can buy your domain for about $10 a year. If you don't want your registration info to be public (name, address, and email) then you can buy privacy services for a bit more.
Buy the .com if you can, and if the .com is taken, and goes to a business that's like yours, then find another name. If you get the .net, or add a dash, your customers will go to the .com site, and it won't be you.
Say your web address a few times to make sure it's easy on the phone.
Avoid the funny extensions unless it's really easy to say, or you have a reason for it. For example .biz, .info, .ws, ...
Get the common spelling errors. You can forward them to your real web site.
