Glorious? Hideous? None?
Domain names.
A quick follow-on to the previous entry 'URLs', in which we mentioned Godin's link to Aaron Goldman's GoodUrlBadUrl.com.
Aaron's upfront about working in search engine marketing and thus having a vested interest in good and bad urls [url=domain name].
Your url, my passion.
I am a nerd. I'm that guy who pronounces URL like the Duke of. I clap when I see a good URL and I cringe when I see a bad URL. My mission here is to give businesses some guidance when choosing and promoting their URLs so they don't waste the money they've already spent on this here Internet fad. Enjoy!
His weblog-structured site features a wealth of helpful examples, from which we can all learn. Consider, for example, his remark of: 'Have you recently come across an URL so glorious that even your mom would remember it? Seen any URLs so hideous you wouldn't wish them on your worst competitor?'
Doesn't that set you thinking about your own URL? Or perhaps lack of one?
