Am I doing this right for brandability?

...if that's even a word.

Hi warriors,

I've been working on a large website for the last 7/8 months which I want to make my main site as it is in the subject of my profession and I am putting all my time and effort into it.

Obviously, I want to make it an authority site and a memorable name but now I'm thinking that perhaps the domain I chose for it is too long for this, with it being 4 words beginnning with "the" so it's
www. thewordwordword .com

What do you think guys? |Is this too long to be brandable or is it ok? - the words are all pretty generic but are not a keyword I found using a tool or anything - I did actually make the string of words up and it completely describes the website so that's why I chose it. But I'm now thinking maybe I shoud have chosen a completely made up word using words relating to the niche or something:confused:. Also I've noticed that there are books written with this string of words in it but with others attached, which I suppose could be a good thing?

Also, I'm using Xsite pro rather than a Wordpress purely because I can tailor to my own taste (I just can't use wordpress very well) and it loads the pages very fast as well as other great benefits however, just wanted to find out what other marketers think about this software and if you think it's a good idea to build a large, website for the long-term on it?

Thanks very much for reading and any ideas appreciated!

    Sorry but I would change that. It's too long and people will easily get confused by the X3

    It reminds me of peter on family guy... Have you heard? the bird is the word... LOL


    Anyways, Yes try and keep it short and sweet. Most people get confused if something is repeated more than once. And xsite pro will work fine. Just keep on building and taking action and you will get the benefits eventually

      LOL That gave me a good laugh.

      Apologies, the way I wrote that is misleading the domain name is actually: the/xxxxxxx/xxxxxxxx/xxxxx .com with - the at the start and 3 other different words.

      Is that better? Thanks for the replies.
