    lets say my site is "bestapples.com"

    Is it best for me to register a name on the forum as "best apples", or just woahdolla if i plan to post with links in my sig?

    thanks

    I think it's just a matter of personal taste. I prefer to use my real name, but many others wouldn't want to do that. There are plenty of DP users who use some form of their business name as their forum name.

    I would prefer posting with another alias, instead of your site name. I think using your site name would make you look needy.

    Yeah, I always use some nickname like Hannah or Hookie or something like that... never my business name, as it looks too spammy.

    It doesn't matter as long as you will be a good member, people will love w/e name u gave to your self, your real name, nickname, sitename, it's up to you, and don't ask for openions for your own life again, everyone have a view point and so you ...
