There are many tools and services available on the Internet which offer DDoS attack service. You can also build a large botnet, composed of hundreds or thousands of hijacked PCs or networks, to launch an attack. A DDoS attack may also be launched as part of a larger hacking operation involving malware, phishing attacks and/or data theft. Ultimately, the most successful way to launch an attack is through social engineering — obtaining access credentials from vulnerable individuals within the target organization — rather than technical measures alone.

Launcing a DDoS attack against another website is illegal and carries serious penalties. If you want to cause significant downtime for your competitor's website, it would be better to focus on optimizing your own website and marketing strategies so that you can acquire more customers than them.
