Need help choosing a website domain.

Post by dom »

I'm looking to open up a website for my résumé. I'm thinking to use one of the two listed in the poll. I would appreciate input.

I like dvanha better, because it's shorter and looks less cluttered; but i'm worried about people thinking it's an arbritary string of letters, and then would have trouble remembering it.

Always register your full name first rather then a shorter version. It's an unwritten rule kinda.

I was thinking of that. Like I told Amelie, it only costs $10, and I can't even get a lapdance for that much these days.

On a serious note, that's pretty sick you're making a resume page. Good for you, I know I probably wouldn't be able to commit to something like that. Not yet at least.

I'm competing with 80 applicants for the two jobs I want. Lots of them spent the summer doing things like teaching English in Bangladesh or build wells in Nigeria (I wish I was lying or exagerating). I need to work hard at this, there's only one position open for each of the jobs.

DOMINICVANHA just has a more business feel, it's not really about which is cooler.

Depends on the name to, yours can take it, should you register your full name, others, like mine can't.
