Lightbulb Which Domain is better for my Forum? DomainBusinessTalk.com or Domainers.biz

Hi,

Thanks for your time to read this post ! I do need you help here

My new Domainers forum has launched about 1 month which name is DomainBusinessTalk.com (Feb 2007). It grows everyday since I am tring my best to promote it by Ads on other sites, and running Google Adwords Campaign... et al. This is forum is my Key project for 2007.

I am going to spend thousands more for promotion, but I must get your kindly feedback before go further.

My question is: Which one do you prefer as the Domain of the Forum?
DomainBusinessTalk.com
or
Domainers.biz

It is really to difficult for me find a really Great Domain for our Forum. I picked DomainBusinessTalk.com from 20+ Domain related names I have when I started the forum, but now looks it is still too long to remembered by visitors

Then I tried to searching another "better" Domain for it. But failed to get a Great one. By my best effort, the best one I could buy is "Domainers.biz", which is easy to remember, and brandable, but the .biz TLD is some kind of "Cheap" for many people.

I don't have too much options. Must decide one from these two names and start my next campaign asap..

Your opinion is most valuable to me, Poll plz , and help me decide.

Thanks a Million for your suggestion!

Julian

My vote goes to the .com, it is a little long but .biz domains have lost so much credibility recently and it'll just get worse

I'd stay away for .biz extenstions. I had received SO MUCH spam from such sites that I have banned all emails coming from .biz. It's a pity, but in my opinion .ru, .biz and some more are compromised and I just don't allow them anymore
