A little contest for all readers. Prize is brand new Zippo, engraved by me, looking something like this:
Plus, I can engrave your name, or any other text for that matter, on the lighter, if winner wishes so.
I need to create a new web page for products and services we offer – making knives, swords, doing engravings on all kinds of things etc. But I need a good domain name for this web page. And this is where you come in. If one of you suggest a domain name which I’ll use, you get the prize (free shipping to anywhere in the world).
Contest rules:
- It has to be free .com domain
- The name should reflect what we do, to make search engines happy. Some ideas to get you started:
- hand engraving, custom engraving, engraving, engraver etc
- knives, custom knives
- swords, katanas
- art, custom etc.
I definitely prefer names that are ‘engraving‘ related, for that will be our main focus. Knives, swords, watches, pens and whatnot will be just by-products.
- Short(ish) name and easy to spell
- Write the suggestions to comments of this post
- Deadline is 31st of December 2007
Best names I came up myself are: handengraversite, customengraving, engraversite, thehandengraver. Don’t offer these, beat them 🙂
Pass this post on to your friends, if they win then at least you get to see the Zippo.
Go!
EDIT: I put 2 of my engraved Zippos up to eBay, their auction ends at Sunday night (Pacific time). Check ’em out: Design 1 and Design 2. Enjoy!
