Launching VpsInChicago.com - Need Suggestions

Jeffrey

Hello, a few friends and I will be launching http://vpsinchicago.com. We will be selling XEN-PV VPS's in Chicago and Dedicated Servers in Chicago with the Xen Citrix Server allowing you to create your own XEN VPS's too! Our XEN-PV Nodes will run SolusVM with Intel Xeon processors. Do you think this is a good idea? What else should we sell? We are currently only looking to sell XEN VPS's or KVM VPS's. We also think Chicago, IL is a great location for anyone in the US as it is Central and it is a very nice city. :) Please recommend us some templates to use! :D

Come up with a better name. Logo sucks too.

Chicago! Chicago!, It's a city that's exciting! It's a city that's inviting, It's a city for a woman just like me!

There's a lake they call Lake Michigan!, I think I'm really fitting in! This city is my perfect cup of Tea! Chicago! Chicago!

Moar Chicago!

I'm actually surprised to see that there are a lot more Chicago LEB hosts than there are Dallas

We wanted the name of the city to be in the domain, ChicagoVPS was already taken. xD

You have Continuum in Chicago which is really really really cheap for colo, not sure if you have a similar one in Dallas

Network maintenance email almost on a daily basis for 1 month I was with them. No thank you.

This is my first month with them and so far I only got one email about network maintenance but it is for their control panel, I think they used to suck big time, but getting better since they did some upgrade on their network. I guess we'll see.

Well I was with them last year, so hope things might have changed.

WindyCityVps.com?

Zen

Ah...shoot the guy that came up with that name.

chicvps.com (standing for Chicago, and being a reference to style, etc)

Allows for a little creativity with the design too ;)

ChicVPS would have been a good domain, yes, but we've already registered vpsinchicago.com :)

Randy

You cant beat @CVPS_Chirs ;-) he might kill you;-)

AsadHaider

@Jeffrey are you open to any names or specifically Chicago ones only? This awesome domain is available..

ninjavps.com

:P

Zen

You're going to go ahead with vpsinchicago? Ew!

Jeffrey

@Zen If anyone wants to purchase Vpsinchicago.com domain then we will switch domains. ;)

AsadHaider

@Jeffrey I'll bid a dollar just for you to not use that name, seriously Jeffrey it's pretty bad and makes it sound like some crappy niche vps site.

Zen

Why do you need someone to purchase? Its only like $10 :)

No offense, but if you can't even afford the registration fee for a new domain...how are you planning to keep this business afloat?
