Let’s say you want to start a hobby blog, create a Twitch channel, or launch a new company and you intend to be active across several social media sites. For this, in order to minimize confusion, you want to make sure that you can use the same username for all of them.

After all, consistency is important. If you’re @NextDoorBakery on Twitter but TheNextDoorBakery on Facebook and /u/RealNextDoorBakery on Reddit, it can be a mess to manage and you may confuse your customers and/or fans. You’ll also want to grab NextDoorBakery.com if you can!

The site is super easy to use. All you have to do is type in the username you want to check and the site will automatically search through dozens of social media sites to see if that username is available. And when I say dozens, I mean it. The following sites are searched as of this writing:

Blogger

Domain (.com)

Domain (.net)

Domain (.org)

Dribbble

Ello

Facebook

Feedburner

Flickr

Foursquare

GetSatisfaction

Github

Google+

IFTTT

Instagram

Last.FM

Meetup

Myspace

Papaly

Pinterest

Reddit

Spotify

StumbleUpon

Tumblr

Twitter

Vimeo

YouTube

Plus dozens of others. Just keep searching for usernames until you find one that’s available on all of the sites you intend to use, and don’t be afraid to tack on modifiers like “The” or “Real”.
