Also, couldn`t i potentially get in trouble with that other company in Vancouver for having the exact same name? I don`t want any legal disputes over the name...should it become popular in the future. Is that a By country thing? or international?EdgEvent2/14/2008 11:24 AM
Tagline "Your event has advantages with Eventages!
Eventages.com is available.
or
Eventicool.com is available.
Or Edgevent Tagline"Where Event is a verb..."
In the mean time...edg-events.com is available as is edgevents.net and .org so i thought i could use one of those for my website until the .com becomes available. What do you all think?
I prefer to use the name without the hyphen too. My concern is that so many people are used to seeing .coms that if they accidentally type in edgevents.com they will go to someone else`s party planning site. It wouldn`t be as big of a deal if they went to a site for financial services or something...but its someone in the same industry as me, in a town that is like 30 min away. So i don`t want people thinking they are me. I would try to buy it from them, but i`ve never done that...and godaddy charges like $50 for them to try to buy the name, and they can`t guarantee they can get it...so that could be a big waste of money. I plan on buying up a bunch of other names like the .net and .org and .biz, but i`d really like the .com
My advice is, if you think it might offend, it certainly will. How many? You will never know. Can you take the risk of offending so many that your business fails? Only you can answer that.
I know that the hyphen is not preferred but for what it`s worth, the URL "Edge-Events.com" is available.
I`m kind of disappointed that after all that brainstorming you decided to stick to you original name. I think CampSteve and MotionGuy came up with some really amazing names (Event-Garde was my favorite!!! Kudos!)I`m only just getting into the Entertainment/Event/Production industry, but I already know how hard it is to stand out from the rest. I feel like using any type of "Edge" and "Event" is way over done--especially if you have to reword it so many times to find one that hasn`t been used already. And as CampSteve said, I think you could come up with a really creative name--A name that allows YOUR business to define the up and coming industry, not the other way around. I hope that makes sense. (Can`t stress those Google & Zingerding references enough!)I`m sure you`re long gone from this post and my opinion isn`t as constructive as the others, but I really think you could do much better..But sticking with the E and E...Evoke Events - We Bring Out The BestEtch-Event / etch-e-vent - (maybe a tagline about drawing up plans or something)Even Events - We Lay It Out For YouEntirely EventsEverlast Events/Events Everlasting (just sounds.. enchanting, ha)And some randos, even though they`re not REAL random names..Turn Out EventsStairstep EventsOffbeat OccasionsA (your name) AffairCatalyst OccasionsOr I would try throwing another language in there. That can have a cool effect.or just.. EdgEvents - We Do It While You Watch. :-)Good luck with your business!
