Choosing A Domain Name, Alias, And Host

written on May 12, 2008 in WWW

I’m trying to decide whether or not to change several things. One is my domain name, two is my alias, and three is my host.

My domain name: This domain name sounds so common, and in all honesty, it holds no special meaning to me. I’d also prefer a non-org and non-hyphenated domain. My only concern before that prevented me from switching was because of my pagerank, but since that is nonexistent now, I really couldn’t care less. As a matter of fact, a new domain name would be a nice restart for me :) On the other hand though, it means updating my links within my site and outside links back to my site, which can get quite tedious. Below are my new name considerations:

  • lovefatale.com/net
  • wingstranger.com/net

My alias: In the past I’ve been using Shao as my online name, but that name was actually derived from an anime character I’m no longer interested in. On the other hand, I’d like to use my real name, Jenny, just because it is my name and all my outgoing emails have that name on there. However, it’s a very common name, and I don’t like to mistaken for someone else or vice versa. There’s also my childhood nickname, Mimi, which comes from yet another anime character, except that after all these years, I still love her. So I’m in a dilemma over which one I should pick.

My host: I love CirtexHost. They are reliable, affordable, and helpful. However, I’m paying more than I need for resources I don’t use. At the same time, they have a limited number of databases, the one resource I do need more of. I’m considering HoldFire Hosting’s custom plan or XFluro’s $10/year plan. However, switching plans mean that if my site does grow and use up more resources, I will need to switch again.

Suggestions anyone?Error processing request
