    It depends. It is better to have the actual words, but if the actual words are really really long, then, ya, go with an acronym.

    I'm not sure about the fguith.com, but it can definitely work if it is done right. It's a great idea to use if that particular domain has been bought by some low life "business" that buys up as many domains as they can.

    Try to make the acronym another word, or at least something kind of clever.

    I would personally prefer an acronym that kind of means something. Get creative, see what you can come up with. :)
