What should I call my "hub" ?

[Mike]

Hi all,

I think this is the right forum, but anyway...

I'm about to make a "hub" site, which will link to all of my sites and spread PR.

However, I'm not sure what to call it? I don't want to call it my name, but something short and professional.

Can anyone give any ideas?

Also, if I was to make such a site, how should I link to it? Like should pages that I'm not optimizing for go to it?

Thanks a lot,
Mike

What I do is link to it with pages that do not need PR, and link back out to pages that do need PR. (or that do make money).

Um, Make random letter combinations, like Jalic or Incka...

[Mike]

Yeah, think I will do that, thanks Chris.

I'm just doing your suggestion now incka:)

Incka, JALIC is an acronym.

I know, but Incka can be one too... Make a few and see...

MECH - Mike's Extremely Cool Hub.

Something including mech would be good, I like that word:)

I've come up with the following list, which one does anyone think (or if anyone wants to add one...):

SiteStem
SiteMech
Namro
Jrelo

Not many really...

Just in case you might want to do a trademark search before you make it official

[Mike]

Yeh I was wondering about that. I found one that I liked, but wasn't sure if it was too similar to another company.

Do you know where I could do a search please?

Also, if a company has trademarked the first three or four letters that I'm using, will it be ok?

Incka is a trademark of InckA Technoligies France - Part of the Robinson Group. They own Incka.net. Luckly for me that trademark only applys in France and I had Incka.com bought before the company or trademark was made.

Jalic is a trademark... And it has been since 1979...
