Well the “out of control” popularity of buying  “boxed” traffic exchange scripts and cranking out more mediocre exchanges takes on new heights as now we have owners that don’t even spell check their DOMAIN names!  Ok…I’ll cut them a little slack, maybe the correct spelling of the domain was taken, and in some cases you can use cute variations, but there are just some that don’t work when not spelled correctly.

Hence the release of “Traffic Pharoh”.  Correctly spelled it’s “Pharaoh” of course.  But even if the correct spelling was taken, this was a lose-lose domain.  Firstly, I am not sure what percentage of the average net user can even spell Pharaoh correctly to begin with!  (I’ll admit it…I had to look it up).  So even with name recognition, many users would struggle to get the right spelling  to get to you on word of mouth or by trying to “recall” the web address.

I won’t go into my whole philosophy on exchange after exchange opening up…..I’ve been over and over that topic.  But if you are going to get into the exchange game, at least use domains that the average person can spell from memory or at the very least get the spelling correct to begin with!

DOH!
