| tv-related forums... I just registered six domains for some upcoming tv shows: Quote:
Jericho by CBS The Nine by ABC Six Degrees by ABC Now, I run a Lost forum which wasn't met with a whole lot of success, so I'm basically asking successful forum owners specifically related to tv shows, how should I progress? These shows won't be launched until next fall. Chances are all three shows won't be hits... so how should I pursue this? All seem like shows that won't progress past a season or two... Thanks, Daniel  | |||||

| 6º Is being directed by JJ Abrams, the same guy who directed ALIAS & LOST for tv. I think that show will be a hit, and would focus on that.

The only reason it is getting a second season is because ABC feels they owe him something. If that weren't the case, it would have been canceled. But then again, this could be a good reason to run a forum based on Six Degrees. No matter how badly it does, ABC won't cancel it. I'm just a little bitter because ABC canceled "Invasion" which did much better than "What About Brian". I won't be watching many ABC shows in the future...

So with these domain names, which would be the best to base the site off of? With dashes.com or without dashes.net? | |||||

| ^ Yeah, that's sort of the idea. Get rankings a few months before the show starts and knock out the competition.  So use the .com for the actual site and SE, but redirect the .nets. | ||||

| That's a good idea, Adam. That way, you can see where your business is comming from... word of mouth, or advertising.
