Which suffix for a forum?

[Ringr]

Hey guys,

I am going to start an experimental forum regarding a certain subject, I have no idea if it will catch on or not, so for now I want to start with just one domain.

My question is: if you had any one of the domains to choose below, which one of them would you choose?

• SubjectForum.com
• SubjectForums.com
• SubjectTalk.com
• SubjectBoard.com
• SubjectBoards.com

Really what this all boils down to is trying to decide which forum-related suffix I should get for the domain. Forum, forums, talk, board, or boards? Which one is going to be the most widely-searched and more likely to bring in visitors?

Honest advice appreciated,
Thanks;
Andrew

"Talk" is my favorite, and actually in many cases I love the Talk____.com format best.

I've run a good number of Talk____ forums, and I just think the format has a nice ring to it.

i agree, i've had luck with talksubjects.xxx as well

I would definitely say using "talk" as a prefix would be my second choice, my first being "subjecttalk".

I currently have talkadoption.com and .net up for sale over at sitepoint, going at $50 right now. Obviously the price will depend greatly on the keyword but the interest in those two domains may proove helpful in making your mind up.

GamingTalk, WiiTalk, VistaTalk, etc etc...they just have a nicer sound to me than forums, forum or similar.

Forum, Forums, Board, Talk, Boards in that order.

I own a couple of forums that begin with a talk (http://www.talk-gaming.com and http://www.talk-movies.com). That's because I could not get any decent name with the forum on it.
