discuss Domain or DN?

[fivehead]

When buying a domain, visiting a site, etc., do you fancy "Domain" + keyword or "DN" + keyword?

For example, say you love Fletch and you're building a brand around all the aliases he uses. You buy both DomainFletch.com and DNFletch.com: which one do you develop and which one do you forward to the other?
Excuse the suspect example, but I wanted to choose a medium-sized keyword (ASSuming most would choose DN with a long keyword for brevity's sake) and one that neither the DN nor Domain .com was taken.

Put another way: DNSales.com and DomainSales.com are currently both for sale (side note: Schilling opted for DomainNameSales.com)...which do you spend your life savings on?

If end user is the target than Domain is more approachable else DN will work.

Thanks @namerav. So...if targeting to domainers only, maybe opt for DN, otherwise it's probably best to shoot for Domain?

How about this wrinkle, then? If targeting end-users, if Domain > DN, is Name > DN as well? ala NamePros?

True...think Name Administration

Well hell...I severely undershot the name of this post and poll, then. Should have included Name in there as well.

1st Rule of @NamePros: NEVER post new threads late at night!

I think only domainers will 'get' DN. I'd go for Domain as Name will often not be available.

You need a "Both" in the poll.
Yes I think domainers get the "DN" thing. I look at both as being valuable though. Shorter is sometimes better though.

For the general public I think you need to spell it out "Domain"!
