  • website name/help please!

    #1
    My current rally website is: www.ozrally.org and www.ozrally.co.uk however as for my next trick I'll be driving the Pan-american highway it's not really relevant any more. I also have www.6x7images.co.uk which I haven't updated for donkeys years, it started out just for my medium format photography, hence the name.

    So, I need a new website with a catchy name that can incorporate all the rallies I've done plus future ones, my videos and photos. Basically, I'd like everything in one place. The problem I have is every time I think of a good name I search for it on www.fasthosts.co.uk and find that the domain is already registered. I wanted roadtrip.com or co.uk but all variations of the address are gone already.

    Any suggestions gratefully received, thank you. I could also do with a decent web builder that's versitile, easy to use and easy to add blog, photo's and videos(youtube embeds) from the road. My current websites were done on microsoft publisher which is easy to use WYSIWYG but pretty limited and I have to re-upload the entire site each time I make a change. I have dreamweaver but find it too complex for my tiny brain.

    Thank you

        I was thinking of something all encompassing like www.roadtonowhere.com which is taken

        So that I don't have to change it everytime I do a different rally as has happened with the current oz rally website.

        Not ken on using my name as other rally entrants may want to use the link but I might have to if I can't find anything. I thought about overlandodyssey which is available on co.uk but quizzed a few people and it seems not many can spell odyssey and it has to be easy to spell.

                    Congratulations, worst suggestion yet

                    Sorry Dave buy Sy, the guy who was hanging around the pits at Dad's day out interviewing people calls himself "F Gear TV".

                    You aren't the first person to have assumed that F Gear is me because of the initial. I don't know why Sy chose that name but I'm not in anyway associated with him so a name along those lines would only add to the confusion.

                    I do appreciate the suggestions though so keep 'em coming.

                    As for background; I'm a broadcast camera operator with over 20 years experience with Sky, Formula One(FOCA), ITV Meridian, Channel 5 etc.
                    My rally history is:
                    2006/7 - Plymouth to Banjul(Gambia) Challenge
                    2007 - Mille Miglia (chasing the race)
                    2007 - Mongol Rally
                    2009 - Oz Rally (Uk to Australia)
                    2010 - PN Viking Tour
                    2013 - Pan American Highway

                    The purpose of the website (at the moment) will be to promote myself(and co-driver Tracey), my travels and my video and photographic skils with a view to finding sponsors for the 2013 rally and showcasing the charities we're supporting. Details are still being finalised but the main charity for the next rally will be supporting breast cancer care and research.
                    The website will also be used to keep supporters updated with progress in the build up and on the road.

                    So basically, who I am, what I've done, what I'm doing with plenty of my photo's and videos

                    Oh and stalker?.......that's no way to talk about your wife
