Do You Know What Your Domain Name Says About You?

“What’s in a name? That which we call a rose
By any other name would smell as sweet.”
-William Shakespeare in Romeo and Juliet​

Juliet’s declaration, “What’s in a name?” may be romantic, but it’s poor business advice. Businesses spend a lot of time and money on choosing just the right name for their enterprise. But, all too often choosing the right domain name is left for the end of the business naming process instead of at the beginning where it belongs. Your future customers have to be able to find you on the web. Your domain name may be sending the wrong message and costing you business.

[Enfant]

What's in my name? It's soulless,
It shall expire, like the dismal roar
Of waves that hit the distant shore, --
Like nighttime noises in the forest!

Upon the memo sheet, in grief,
Its imprint in the stillborn gloom,
Much like the writing on the tomb,
In foreign language it will leave.

What's in it? All the lost and trite
In new and wild insurrection,
Within your soul it won't excite
The pure and kind recollections.

But silently, in time of anguish
Pronounce it softly while grieving
Say that my memory won't vanish
That there's a heart in which I'm living...

Waxing poetic are we?

Alexander Sergeyevich Pushkin!

Here is another translation, also beautiful, read it:

What means my name to you?.. 'Twil die
As does the melancholy rumour
Of distant waves, or, of a summer,
The forest's hushed nocturnal sigh.
Found on a fading album page,
Dim will it seem and enigmatic,
Like words traced on a tomb, a relic
Of some long dead and vanished age.
What's in my name?.. Long since forgot,
Erased by new, tempestuous passion,
Of tenderness 'twill leave you not
The lingering and sweet impression.
But in an hour of agony,
Pray, speak it, and recall my image,
And say, "He still remembers me,
His heart alone still pays me homage."
