Besides of some .org's I also got two .com names. I was wondering if these might be of any value.

hq4.com (means headquarter for..., it could be used for lots of sites, such as headquarter 4 webhosting, headquarter 4 cars, etc...)

freshapples.com (something related to fruits or to macs)

I was also wondering which name you would choose for a webhost (A favor for freshapples.com is the fact that it has been registered in 99 whereas hq4.com was registered this year, which might have an impact on how much ppl would trust that certain host).
Or would you just look for another name?

Thanks in advance! :D

domain : hq4.com
Benchmark : hq.com

|----------------------------------------------

4 is associated with death by the Chinese! That is the worst name to have in the world for your company :eek: Maybe you could sell that to some other culture.

Current market value - USA - $300+

----------------------------------------------|



domain : freshapples.com
Benchmark : apples.com

|----------------------------------------------

Nice complement to apples.com. If you don't get sued for tm infringement, makes for a great ATL advertisng campaign for an apple producer.

Current market value - reseller - $1,000+
Current market value - Advertiser - $5,000+ (not more if you don't want the advertising agency who acquires this name to look bad :-( )

Which one would you choose for a webhost?

Not really. It's WOM (word-of-mouth). You like something that really worked for you, you show your appreciation of the fact :D

I learn a lot from forums like these from people who were impressed by certain products. Sure I do my homework, but a heads up is always appreciated :)

I've been with Inner for 4 years, and I'm a fully satisfied customer despite cheaper alternatives :D They even invited me to a free .NET seminar conducted by Microsoft, but the airfare there doesn't make sense :D Ah, good to feel appreciated.

mole - the shameless hack for Innerhost :D
