The 9 worst domain names on the web

World Wide Creative’s web marketing ‘guy’, Mike Perk, places a lot of emphasis on a good domain name. Not only should it have ‘history’, but the name itself is very important. It should be relevant, focused and preferably memorable. A while back, my friend Andrew emailed me a list of names that you wouldn’t want (although, I reckon they get 10 out of 10 for being memorable!)

1. www.whorepresents.com - A resource site called ‘Who Represents?’, where you can find the name of the agent that represents a celebrity.

2. www.expertsexchange.com - A directory site called ‘Experts Exchange’

3. www.penisland.net - A company called ‘Pen Island’, and a site where you can find, er, pens. Yes, it does exist.

4. www.gotahoe.com - Lake Tahoe tourist directory. Unfortunate.

5. www.powergenitalia.com - An Italian Power Generator company…eish. Not sure if this one is legit, actually.

6. www.molestationnursery.com - Mole Station Native Nursery, based in New South Wales. Also - doubt if this one is for real. Still funny though.

7. www.ipanywhere.com - Find computer software here.

8. www.speedofart.com - Apparently, a pretty quick art director owns this site.

9. www.therapistfinder.com - You can apparently find therapists at ‘Therapist Finder’. Seriously, seriously unfortunate.
