Help me on deciding a domain name

by Michael Aulia on 13 May, 2008 in Geek's Ramblings

CrossHey guys, I’m trying to set-up a next blog on Christianity + its resources.
It’ll be a blog (WordPress) containing sermon summaries from my church, bible studies, cell group discussions, and some personal posts as well.

Can you suggest a good domain name? At the moment I’m thinking to grab www.writeforgod.com but if you have a better suggestion, please share it here! Please check first whether the domain is still available before suggesting (www.checkdomain.com)

I also think to put it as a sub-folder under my personal website (www.cravingtech.com/blog/ ….something…) instead of a new domain name for it. What do you guys think?

UPDATE: Poll has been closed and I’ve registered the domain before it’s too late :) Thanks for everyone who has helped!

writeforgod.com is a winner as it’s easy to remember. I like the name and it’s really speaks for itself.

I would suggest to not to gor for a domain, but to go under a subdomain, which can survive, just because your current domain name is not the one which reflect your kind of blog.

Hey Michael,

I like what you’ve come up with. But I also came up with this one for you if you’re interested (and last I checked, it wasn’t taken yet!)…how about: http://www.heavenwriter.com?

i’m not comfortable with the writeforgod.com, since the uncap god may be for a generic one. May i suggest: wordreflections.com

blogforgod.com and bloggingforgod.com would have been perfect, but they are already registered. I agree with blogzilla that writeforgod.com is the best. Better register it now, or someone will. :)

Marie’s idea of using a subdomain backfired for a community site here in the Philippines. Users thought the name was too self-serving. But since Michael is thinking of a blog, it might be a good idea to pursue, although I will vote for writeforgod.com

Thanks guys, keep the suggestion coming! I’m going to register it in about 10 hours.. hope it’s still available!

I don’t think I’ll go for a subdomain….might as well get a new domain for it :)

wordreflections.com sounds good too

@IslesTech: haha yeah I tried that, also with writingforgod.com which sounds better than writeforgod.com.

The cap “god” instead of “God” shouldn’t be a problem as they’ll know which God I’m talking about after they read the posts :D

Time to sleep now..be hoping for some more good votes/suggestions when I wake up in the morning.. sleep tight, everyone..Zzz.z.

Thanks for all of the comments, guys! I’ve taken the domain + hosting plan under my hosting again, LunarPages. Been with them for years with several accounts and they have this $5 deal for Spring at the moment which I don’t want to miss!

Applied, 10 minutes later everything was set-up for me. A very happy customer as always :)

Thanks again for your contributions! Thanks for the suggestions as well even though I didn’t choose yours. Love u all :)

I was trying to find a catchy one. Well, writeforgod.com is simple and has its own meaning too, I guess
