Blog domain name tournament!
I want to start a blog tournament. If this goes well, i think i will make it a regular thing. I want to start with something simple. Building up a blog requires a lot of work and creativity. The first thing you should set up is your brand name. For bloggers, branding is done by setting up a killer site design or registering a super domain name. The blog logo or header images is also very very important. For this first tournament, i want to focus on the domain name. Before i started this blog, i thought about the domain for a few days. I originally wanted to go with BloggerNewb dot com, but since it wasn’t available, i had to go with BloggerNoob.com. Looking back, i’m glad bloggernewb wasn’t available. I like the double O’s.
The Tournament Prize
I will add a dollar for every blog that is entered in the tournament. If there are a only 20 blogs, the prize will be 20 bucks. If a hundred people enter, the prize will be $100. I will start this tournament as soon as i get 2 entrants. Pairs of domain names will square off against each other. The winner will advance to the next round and etc until we are left with one kick ass domain name. That blogger will take the prize! If you are interested, please leave me a comment with your domain name.
NOTE- You can only enter one domain name. The winner has to prove that he or she owns the domain by putting a link to my blog when the tournament is over. Since this is a tournament, either 32, 64, or 128 people need to enter. i’m guessing this tourney will get either 32 or 64 entrants. If you are the 65th entrant, and i close the tourney, you will be entered for my next tourney. Good luck all. Just to be on the safe side. Let’s cap the prize at $128. Let the Domains Begin!

mine is wozog.com. Does it have to be a real site? Does it have to be mine?
February 17th, 2008 at 4:10 am
wozog- it has to be a real site. meaning it that the domain can’t just be parked. yes you have to be the owner of the domain.

Interesting… I have a few sites… but I guess you can choose between DatMoney.com and DatCurious.com… even though I like OurBS.com, but we recently took it down for extended maintenance so it won’t be up to prove I own it.

This is cool idea huh.. here’s is mine dingexx.com
February 17th, 2008 at 11:36 pm
The idea of this contenst is pretty good even if I think there is no such thing like “the best domain”. It all depends on everyone’s good or bad “taste”.
I’ll enter my new blog in this competition

Hey Noob,
I guess I’m with Chica…I’ll be voting for my favorites too.
I love get paid to fart, I know some folks who’d be big moneymakers!
February 18th, 2008 at 1:01 am
Hey Noob — Count me in too.
http://www.funepets.com
Though our domain name has a play on the words and may be misunderstood without the actual logo. Some have pronounced it as “fune-pets instead of funny-pets…lol
Good luck everyone.
February 18th, 2008 at 1:49 am
Is this tournament is only for developed blog/site or also for parked domains, because I have several other cool domain names

ok. i’m ready to start this tourney. I’m impressed at the turn out. i could wait a few more days to fill up 64, but i honestly don’t have the patience. i’ll do more so maybe the next one will have a fatter prize pot. But 32 bucks is good right? Anyway, let the tourney begin! good luck all!
