Title: Domain?
Post by: Chris Cromer on March 21, 2002, 08:02:45 AM

I am planning on getting a new domain and a better host for my site. I need to think of a good domain so far I have come up with these:

www.agi.org
www.agisci.net
www.agisci.org
www.agigames.com
www.agigames.net
www.agigames.org

Please tell me which ones you like, and if it is not listed please suggest more.

I think it's a tie between agigames.com & agi.org

I kinda lean more on agi.org. It's quick and easy to type and is right to the point.

I'm actually on the verge of buying agistudio.com

I had a big issue over picking agidev.com and agidev.org... I decided that .com and .org didn't mean much these days and picked the one that most people use..  .org seems to be associated with free community but .com just seems to be a general one instead of just commercial

I liked the name www.agi.com the best, but it's already taken AGI means something in Spanish. I kind of like agigames.com the best out of the ones that are available.

Isn't "agi" trademarked by Sierria? If so, I suggest against getting a agi.com/.net/.org address. The saftest would probably be the agigames.org

I have already purchased www.agigames.com this link won't work at the moment because the DNS needs to be updated. My ip works though. :) http://64.119.171.141/

There is nothing there now except a forum which yall won't be able to access since I haven't finished setting it up.

www.Eperfect.net

Within 24 hours the DNS should be updated and my www.agigames.com name should work. I have uploaded my entire site already(excluding a few downloads which I need to edit the .html file so that it will point to the new location of the files) Try the ip address above and my site will be fully functional. I will tell yall once my www.agigames.com address is operational. :)

Whoo hooo, www.agigames.com is up and running. I have not updated the site yet but that will come shortly once all of the files are uploaded. :)

Also everyone please be sure to change their links to the new address. :)
