A Walkthrough to find the right name for your coaching center

Are you thinking, what name to give for your coaching center? 

You probably realize that a name could be a make-or-break deal for your online academy. Therefore, in this blog post, I will help you come up with a name for your academy in just a few easy steps. Watch the full video or read the steps below.

Tip #1: Keep A Simple Name For Your Coaching Centre

The purpose of your coaching center’s name must be to tell your students what you teach and what they can expect from it. So, keep it simple and clear. Let it convey what you are trying to achieve. 

A perfect attractive name should be between 12 -15 characters

To give you some examples, here are the coaching center names of our customers:

Example #1: Name Reflects What They Teach Or Offer

  • 2IIM (Help students crack IIM exam) 
  • BankExamsToday( Help students crack bank exams) 
  • LearnCodeOnline ( Help students code & program)
  • Paperbell (life coaching and selling coaching services)

Example #2: Name Uses Geo specific or segment-specific names

Example #3: Name Using The Course Creators Name

If you have established yourself as a popular educator, subject matter expert, or author, considering having your name as your institute name makes sense.

  •      Anujindal ( RBI, UPSC coaching)
  •      PankajSirAcademy (Technical training institute) 

Looking at our own customer data over the last 5 years, customers with good quality content and market demand succeeded in their space irrespective of their name. So, don’t worry too much over a name.


Tip#2: Create A Name Based On Student Search

Another good approach to find a popular name for your coaching center is use the popular students search queries in Google.

Why? Because, this has two significant advantages for you: 

  • One, it helps you Identify student pain points & create appropriate courses
  • Two, your website will get FREE traffic from google for the popular student search terms.

Let us look at 2 ways you can use to find out, what students are searching for.
