What's the best name for my Pampered Chef website?

[Denarella]

Im trying to figure out what to use as my pampered chef website name. I know most people use their name but isnt that difficult for customers to remember if we have long names? My brain is fried, ladies....sorry....

 

[chefjenibel]

So, what's your name? Is it your screen name? Give us something to work with!

I just use my initials, I tried other things with the word kelly in it, but all of it was taken, so I just did that, it's easy to remember.

You don't have to use your full name... you could just use your first name, first name-last initial, first initial-last name or just make something up that people might remember... I always think of Cinderella when I see your name. Yeah, yeah, I know, I know you've NEVER heard that one before. But hey, my maiden name is Adams... can you guess how many times people have crossed their arms and snapped their fingers at me???

I know....who the heck is going to remember how to spell my name?

 

[DebbieJ]

I did my email address. That way there was really only one thing to remember.

my email is [email protected] so my PWS is /jenningsdeb

 

[janetupnorth]

I use my initials too - it works well to have something shorter...especially when you are printing labels, etc. If it is too long, it doesn't fit on a label well or on order forms...

You're right as well...and you're SOOOO lucky that no one can second guess the spelling of your name!

 

[Smashie]

i would just use your last name..........btw, it's WAY cool!!!

 

[Denarella]

Not NEARLY as cool as Coco!!!!:balloon:

I agree 110%!!!!!!!! What about a play on your name like PCParadise, I think HO might let that go since it's so close to your name. Otherwise, go with /paradiso. Most people that visit your website will get there by e-invites or with your biz card or something right in front of them and then they can bookmark it, so it doesn't have to be really easy. I honestly don't feel like your last name is that hard, but I always remember names so I might not be a good judge! Whatever you decide, it'll be fine!

ETA: I just re-read my post and it sounds kind of witchy! I hope you don't take it that way! Just trying to be helpful, I hate that you can't tell "tone" in print!

LOL! Thanks ladies...you've been a tremendous help.....you're right...they will have some way to get there anyway....they're not going to just happen upon it...

 

[tlennhoff]

Your last name should be fine. Your name will be on everything you give to people as will your website so it should not be a problem. I do put reminders to people to bookmark my site so they can order 24/7 while in their PJs.

Last name it is....I LOVE this site....its a godsend...it truly is....

Thank you everyone...I really mean it. You've helped me with the most STUPID stuff. I just wanted you to know I really do appreciate it...

Dena:balloon:

 

[tlennhoff]

I don't think any of your questions have been stupid. Its great to see your enthusiasm.

 

[cmdtrgd]

The only stupid question is the one you don't ask!

 

[DebbieJ]

You'd be surprised how many store clerks, customer service reps, and Pampered Chef customers ask me to spell it out for them. PUH-LEEZE!!!

Looks like you already decided... my only advice is keep it easy to remember. That being said, I don't think the rest of our site name is easy to remember and like chefjenibel said - it will be on your cards and in your e-mails etc.

 

[tx_deputyswife]

If you haven't already decided, how about a play on your last name:

/denasparadise

 

[lockhartkitchen]

I use the same for my email and website. It made things easy. I used my last name with a twist. The only issue I've had is I have to use smaller font to fit all on one line at times. (for labels, etc.)lockhartkitchen

 

[chefann]

When you posted your name, Dena, I immediately thought "kitchenparadise". Julie- just an FYI, you can't put your whole PWS address in your signature. If you put ../lockhartkitchen, people around here will know what it is.

 

[genburk]

I am always afraid they will remember the name but not the .biz part and look under .com. I wish they would have a way for guests to find us from the main page. I looked for my recruiters page for a few days and tried different ways to spell her site and couldn't find it. Finally called her and I was right the first time except for the .biz part. Took her a minute to catch it as well.

You're too much! Here's a secret. I dont think ANYONE wants me cooking any meal for them, espeically dinner....I consider PC a challenge for me. I could burn water.....:yuck:

 

[chefann]

That's pretty funny, Dena. Coming from a self-confessed PC addict and all.

 

[Denarella]

But they all look so pretty in my drawer!

 

[BethCooks4U]

How about "daringdena" then. Or "denacancookwithpc"

 

[chef_kimmo]

Lots of songs out there with paradise in them.

If you can get it as www.etc/dena That's what I do. Keeps it short and makes it something your customers can remember.
