I often counsel clients who are very new to the web on how to choose an appropriate domain name for their web site or application.

Perhaps someone should have counseled this Philadelphia based Realtor, because I’m sure I’m not the only one who chuckled at his choice of domain name:

Kinetic Spine and Tire Centre

Steve came up with “Kinetic Spine and Tire Centre” many months ago as a test account on a chiropractic-related website we did. It always give me a chuckle to think of a chiropractor that also did auto repair.

I very often click on the “who made this site” link at the bottom of sites while I browse. I recently came across a site designed by a firm whose “our services” page looked like this:

I’m not sure that I’d ever get a spinal adjustment at a place that worked on tires and I don’t know if I’d ever get a website made by a company that lists real estate investment and property management above web design on their site.
