I bought a domain and my friend thinks its bad

    I bought the domain Illmcnasty.com, and we just opened it up as a blog for aweomse things (thats what illmcnasty means) like future technology cool furniture and buildings, cars etc.

    My friend thinks that the name illmcnasty does not really go with our professional theme and I agree our theme is a little pro, but I think that its ok. (the problem is he wants to get a new domain)

    I really like this domain, because I dont want a site thats like rllycoolgadgets.com or something similar to all the other tech blogs out there.

    Tell me what you think,

    As long as you market correctly, the domain should be fine.

    Eh, I don't really like the domain. It almost looks like random letters and you can't tell what it says just by glancing at it. But if it gets good and popular, it won't matter.

    I agree with the other people, it doens't matter too much. However, if you think it could cause problems later on, it is better to change it now. Illmcnasty is pretty easy to remember though I would think, which means a lot.

    sorry to ask,,

    how do you read it

    Illmcnasty

    I'll McNasy

    I'll Mc Nasy

    What ever it is, the domain i dont have any problems with, but why dont i see any images on your homepage??

    http://www . illmcnasty.com/ totally blanc and just white and orange

    AND the category part

    http://www . illmcnasty.com/?cat=17 just white and orange without any images of the articles...

    I would also make it more cleare where to buy the things from, not many understands that "source" actually is where to buy it from, just write buy it here and link to the description of the item on the store :eek:

    I'm assuming it's ill McNasty. "ill" as in "sick"
    Example: That's sick yo!

    is "illmcnasty" or that word seperate one of your keywords? If so, you'll rank well for it.

    its ill McNasty as in sick like someone said, I dont know which of you saw the site when we were playing around with it but one of you said it was just white and orange so thats at least one. We were playing around with the sidebar and accidently screwed a lot of stuff up.

    Illmcnasty is one of the keywords, and I hope we get first on google for it :)

    The site doesnt have much cool stuff yet but its coming and we will make a ocntact page soon so if you have someone that you think can go on the site you can email us.

    Think that answers all the questions :D

    Dillmando

    edit: just checked and we are first for illmcnasty in google. Bought the domain yesterday so thats not too bad!

    A domain must be memorable so that it is easier to remember. In this case, it appears that the domain name of your choice does not strike a bell.

    It's not very great, but it will work if it gets popular.
