Think also about customers who have seen already seen your ad or read about the company somewhere, but did not have immediate need for the service back then. Good and simple domain name might help the end up to the web page right away. If they need to Google, they are exposed to all your competitors.

From what I've seen (and again, I might be very bitter about consumer facing products) the behavior is that even if they think they know your name they will still end up on Google. At which point whether you are solve.com or getsolve.com it matters very very little.

Like it or not, Google is the entry point and how consumers will find your service.

This is certainly our hope. Thanks!
