Hello Friends

I am writing to have your help for a friend of mine who is trying to setup a new website for translation. I need your favour that you suggest an attractive name for such a website, as he is a bit confused regarding this.

Will wait for your reply.

He wants to run a business and can't come up with a name for it, ie. is confused? He may wanna hire a marketing and SEO expert to tailor this name for him.

It isn't like doing a magic trick Nov 12, 2013

It might be a good idea for your friend to register here. He'll then be able to find all sorts of marketing information that's already in the forum archives. He could also ask for specific ideas for his own name, suiting his own unique selling points, and gather feedback on his own ideas. I assume he has some? We really can't just pull an exciting, innovative translation website name out of a hat.

A bit bizarre Nov 12, 2013

In my opinion your friend should come up with the name for his website himself instead of asking a bunch of other translators that he doesn't know. Nobody can tell him what to call it because it is a highly personal matter and everyone has their own preferences.

At the very least he should register on this website and post this question himself.

It`s very personal Nov 12, 2013

It depends on the topic of his web site as well. But also name of his web site should be easy, so you could memorize it without any problems.

Hello friend,

Coming up with the right name is work and doing it right will make your friend a lot of money. However, if I do this work, I will not make any money from it. I'm happy to share experience and all that, but I'm not very happy about doing other people's marketing work for free.

Perhaps your friend should hire a firm to suggest an attractive name rather than asking you to ask other people to do his work?

Just a thought.
