Going to develop it, but I wanted some opinions on the value of the name.

I know FAQ may be used more in some cases, but FAQs is still used a lot. For example, GameFAQs.com has both but uses FAQs and redirects FAQ to it.

Also, HostingFAQs.com is developed.

Long! Reg. fee - $35.00, IMHO.
It's not an irrelevant domain, though.
Good Luck.

Thanks, Cool:).

However, anything with WebHosting in the title is going to be long.

Good Luck.

I think this theory of domain names that are kinda long being less valuable because we feel people don't want to take the time to type them in is (IMO) pure BS. Why is it people will type 15-20+ letters when searching for something, but some how we fell they don't want to type that many letters to get to a website. Example:Go to the overture term suggestion tool and type in "game cheats" (quotes or no quotes). Look at lenth of the search terms people are typing in and the numbers.
Don't you think these same people would take the time to type in a longer that average domain name, I would. Sometimes longer names can actually be more descriptive about the content of a website than just a simple 1 word term. Sure, there is a limit somewhere, but 3-4 word domain names shouldn't be penalized if they're well understood as to what they are representing.

With that said...........I like the name, I know what I'm going to see when I go to that site..........$100+

BTW DomainOgre, where'd you get the avitar of my mother-in-law??

ROFL, thanks schimidte. I agree with you on certain names with hot keywords like webhosting, wireless, and gambling.

Those keywords have a lot of demand and you will see many developed sites with keywords having extra long names. For an obvious example, webhostingtalk.com is the exact same length as webhostingfaqs.com.

Gambling may be even worse with high ranked (SE) sites like:
www.online-gambling-promotions.com
www.onlinegamblinginfo.com
www.gamblingcasinoportal.com
www.online-gambling-information.com
