Yes, I guess it isn’t going to work. Good thing I didn’t buy the domain name at Dreamhost. :rolleyes:It’s sad, though, that there’s no way it would give the right impression.
The story and explanation would work in a blog post or FAQ page, I think. They don’t really make sense without the entire story. But basically, it’s about getting through a crisis by having faith that may or may not be religious… it can be faith in your body’s ability to heal, faith in the doctors at Oregon Health and Science University, faith that you can survive anything thrown at you, and so on.
Okay, here’s another possibility: (altered to be nonclickable)
If I saw a website that had the word hype in it, I’d infer that you don’t believe in stem cell research or at least you think a lot of it is BS and you plan to tell us just exactly why you think that based on nothing other then why you think the scientists don’t know what their talking about. Next up, chemtrails!!! And, again, wouldn’t click on it if that’s what I was looking for.
If that’s the direction you’re heading, then that’s fine, don’t defend the name, just buy it and build your blog, otherwise, IMHO, don’t over complicate it. Something simple like MySCJourney (or MyStemCellJourney) or anything else like that would be fine.
But with names like that you’re going to lose clicks before people even read the little two line blurb that Google shows them.
“Stem Cell Hope and Hype” just does not imply that the site is a source of reliable information. It sounds like someone’s personal blog. The other title sounded similarly unprofessional.
From your description in the OP, it does sound like it’s going to be a personal blog, though. Is that what you’re going for?
A title that is a biblical reference does not necessarily imply that the work is religious, possibly because we’re so used to hearing biblical phrases and metaphors in certain secular contexts.
In the United States in 2014, however, the word “faith” has become virtually synonymous with “religious” when used in certain contexts. A web address is certainly one of those contexts.
