$10 domain name contest - 72 hours

Discussion in 'Design Contests' started by myfrogger, Jun 20, 2007.

    I'm starting an internet hot tub sales company and need a name.

    Business/website selling points:
    • I plan to sell the hot tubs at near wholesale which is just over 1/2 the price hot tubs typically cost.
    • I have a very good system in place for direct delivery & setup of the hot tubs, nationwide.

    Domain requirements:
    • Domain must be available
    • .com only
    • No hyphens
    • Preferably no numbers
    • Shorter is better
    • Strong preference for descriptive keyword(s) in the domain
    • Easy to spell, easy to remember, easy to brand
    • Web 2.0 style" of naming is also acceptable (i.e., YouTube, Flickr, Digg, ebay, ipod) but not preferred

    Contest Terms:
    • Please PM me the name and post a general "I PMed you" post in the forum.
    • Feel free to submit as many quality domain names as you can think of.
    • $10 payment to the winner will be made via paypal at the end of the contest.
    • Winner's name will be posted at the end of the contest.
    • Even if I don't end up registering the name, I'll still award the $10 to the best entry.
    • If you have something that you think is really good but it doesn't meet my requirements/preferences, feel free to PM me the name anyway.

    Thanks to everyone in advance!!

    oh wow
    I didn't expect to win; saying that there no Username with the name hand, read his freaking post: username hand is the winner. search for username hand and tell me how many posts he has and when he registered...
    if there is a guy named hand...so be it.... at least it wouldn't sound so deceitful.. if he said hand won....instead of username

    How about you pay attention instead of calling people babies. I don't mind losing, it's a contest, there are winners and losers, big frigin deal.

    It just seems like this guy ain't honest and wasted my time and everybody elses for his/her own advantage.

    Case closed.

    read my post slowly and you'll notice that I did specify username hand.
    I'm done arguing....congrads to whomever, this is just not worth getting worked up for.

    what was the winning URL?

    Hand's profile

    I'm not quite sure what I am being dishonest about. I just picked the best domain that was still available and awarded the prize.

    Alex894,
    In case you are wondering the reason why I didn't choose your domains. All of the domains you sent except for two didn't contain the keywords "hot tub" only "tub" so those were out. Then the other two domains were very long, 13 and 15 characters long.

    I'm not going to publish the winning domain at this time. Thank you for understanding.
