Which Domain Name?

Written by Mark in General | 5 Comments »

The other week my brother was renewing his domain name when he came across the domain that he wanted in the first place.  I have always wanted the domain name markwilkinson.co.uk or even markwilkinson.com, but as they are registered by a large furniture group this is not likely to happen.  My point is that this got me thinking about what domain name I should be using.

My blog has always resided on penn4them.com which is what it was always intended to do.  The name comes from the old saying that I used to here, when someone is day-dreaming we used to say “penny for them”, meaning we would give you a penny for your thoughts.  Blogging is a lot about thought and opinions and therefore I thought that appropriate for a blog.

My blog is not up for discussion.  Since I started getting into web design and the Internet back in late 2004 I registered the domain name markdw.co.uk.  This is what I use for email and so on and for a while it was where I shared photographs and videos.  However my blog has taken over all that now.  So all I use this for is hosting my email.

I suppose the question I want to ask is which domain do you think I should be using for my personal domain.  I have a few that are registered and therefore was wondering what other people thought was the best to use.  I you could answer the poll below then that would be great.
