Which would you recomend?


Hi everyone.

As you will be able to notice by my NP at the side, I am slowly getting my way to getting a domain, and I also have some domain credit to help. I only need about 100 more NP to get my first domain.

My problem is that I own a website that has a fairly long name, but I don't want my domain to be too long other wise people might forget it.

I couldn't get the initials of it as it would be LLL and I know that they are very hard to get, plus I've checked the availability of it and it isn't available.

So I would like some help from you experienced domainers, as to which of the following I ought to attempt to pursue.

1) zetaboardresources.net - This is the long version.
or
2) zbresources.net - The shortest version I could probaly do.
????: NamePros.com http://www.namepros.com/domain-newbies/209126-which-would-you-recomend.html

Any help appreatiated. Thanks .

Hi Toolbox123

First of all, why does it have to be called "zeta board resources". Have you considered a name change? It might make all the difference if you want a brandable domain name that can be spoken of to other people and remembered.

Secondly, is funding really that bad for you - or is it that you don't have paypal or credit card to use? 8 bucks or less is not much when converted to pounds - a couple of beers maybe

Well, Zeta Board Resources is the name of my site, which is why I think it should be something to do with it.

Also, it gives out resources for Zeta Boards/Invision Free which is why the site is called what it is.

ZetaBoardResources.net even though long, is good and descriptive and makes more sense than zbresources.net

Fully agree!


Anyhow, zetaboard is only taken in .com/net/info... maybe you should consider to register one of the many other tlds too?

If I want to develop a website, I would never have the domain name more than 8 letters. And i will use dot com only!
