Hi all,

I intend to develop a travel site.
I own 2 domains:
tourismbay.com
holidayaz.com

Wich sounds more catchy? I really apreciate your effort.
Thank you

    I vote for the first one. The second one doesn't "do it" for me.

    Unless you are selling holidays in Arizona, the first one hands down.

        I also voted for Tourismbay, it just sounds like a broader range of travel choices.

        Ooh, I see ...

        I also took it as referring to Arizona (and I'm not even American).

        So I vote for the other one ...

    Aren't the best domains ones that include your main keyword?, I wouldn't choose either, from what I have learned from many training courses, but if you want to use one -I agree that the first one is best, as I also thought the second one was referring to Arizona.

      Yes, you are right is good to have an EMD but being a travel site, with wide range is pretty difficult. Anyhow thanks a lot for suggestion and vote.

      It depends what type of site is being built. If it's a run-of-the-mill nche site, then a keyword domain could help.

      If building a branded authority site is the goal, then keep in mind that Yahoo, Google, and eBay were not keywords, and they seem to be doing okay.

      I vote for TourismBay. I had to re-read the other one to get what it said. I sort of saw it as Holid-a-yaz.

      All the best,
      Michael

    TourismBay all the way. Piggy backs on eBay and people that read the name will know it is a site that sells tourism packages (I hope thats what it is).

    tourismbay reminds me of pirate bay. Don't like it. However - it's also resembles an ebay for tourism, so other's might have very different feelings about it from mine.

      If those are the only two choices, I pick the first one. Truth be told, though, neither does much to trip my trigger...

    I would go with tourismbay. It's easier to remember and pronounce than 'holidayaz'. I had no idea what a-z represented until you explained it.
