So I have a main site and starting a blog for extra info and SEO reasons. However, I don't feel its a blog and not sure I want to call it something cliche as a blog. Like its help, news and tips. So I was thinking about calling it more. Basically its just the name of the wordpress folder of the site. So www.domain.com/blog or www.domain.com/more or www.domain.com/help-news-tips What do you think?
Thanks! It's very helpful. I like some of those. I might use it if you don't mind. Something easy to type like news or updates, etc. Think avoiding the 'blog' term is good?
Call it something that has to do with what it will be about. Example - a site about dogs - dognews.com A site about making money online - easymoneynews.com etc. Some people put up a blog about themselves and post about everything they think about and everything they do. In this case you can name the site for your own name but ending in something such as blog or news like this robertsblog.com or robertslife.com etc. Be creative and ask your friends about it before you register the name, I would not post it on here though before you register the name. If it is a good name some one reading this could steal it from you and register it first. ###
I have the site itself. Let's say a site about making money - easymoneynews.com or a site about dogs - dognews.com which I don't know shows pictures of money and dogs. Now ontop of the main site I want to add a blog or a help/news/tips section (to either easymoneynews.com or dognews.com). So my root directory contains the site but I make a folder for the "blog" or help/news/tips section. Basically it becomes easymoneynews.com/blog or dognews.com/blog or easymoneynews.com/guide or dognews.com/tips, etc. The domain name isn't important (for what I am asking here). Just what I should call my folder/directory that would house my next-level Wordpress blog.
Would simply 'blog' not be best? I know it's what every one used but then returning people do not get confused? Something close to what it is will be fine I think.
I am not sure. You may be right. My thoughts are: a blog is a bit cliche sounding and limiting in a way. A blog is someone's thoughts or opinions and does not necessarily reflect (while sometimes it does) help.
