is it a walk-through kind of website for betting?
if you are just posting strategies, guides and walk-throughs; i say it is pretty good name for it. don't change it.

I have been using your site to compare odds ever since I learned about it. Well done. :)

Voted "No change".

Bitsharp does sound better, I'd definitely keep it.

Also your site is a great read for every sportsbook fan

I think bitsharp sounds the best out of all of them. I also like the old name, it's just that it might possibly be too long. (Some people like short domain names)


Title: Re: Help me decide the name of my bitcoin gambling website
Post by: dHe_zHiq on June 23, 2015, 04:33:07 AM
bitsharp look more cool and easy to remember, I love it.
vote to bitsharp


Title: Re: Help me decide the name of my bitcoin gambling website
Post by: jeannemadrigal2 on June 23, 2015, 04:35:42 AM
I like the original name, bitcoin betting guide is easy to remember, and the name says it all.


Title: Re: Help me decide the name of my bitcoin gambling website
Post by: adaseb on June 23, 2015, 05:37:14 AM
I agree with all the above posts, just stick to your current name.

Some people already are familiar with your site, try not to change it.


Title: Re: Help me decide the name of my bitcoin gambling website
Post by: PenguinFire on June 23, 2015, 05:58:04 AM
I vote to stick with the name you currently have.  It seems with these types of websites it is best to stick with a title that is easy to remember and search engines pick up easily on it.  Plus, it is free.  ;D


Title: Re: Help me decide the name of my bitcoin gambling website
Post by: newcripto on June 23, 2015, 07:27:32 AM
You already have very good name what suits to your work.I don't think you need to change it ,keep continue with existing name and try to make the site more attractive by different ways i.e promotions and marketing.This is cool site and I like it how it is.

Bitsharp sounds way better but .com is always pretty sweet to have. However i'd go with bitsharp.


Title: Re: Help me decide the name of my bitcoin gambling website
Post by: victoryboy on June 23, 2015, 07:42:01 AM
Bitcoin sharp is the best name to change with current one.It seems more related to bitcoin than the current one.All the best for this nice site.


Title: Re: Help me decide the name of my bitcoin gambling website
Post by: ComboChris on June 23, 2015, 07:54:01 AM
The only disadvantage about the current name is that its a bit long. Anybody who saw the bitcoin-betting-guide.com url would know what to expect from that site though. I personally wouldn't know what to expect from a site called bitsharp or bitcoinsharp which may make me now wanna visit it. So I'd say keep it the way it is unless you find a shorter URL that's also self-explanatory.(maybe try to get bitcoinbettingguide.com without the dashes if that isn't taken yet)


Title: Re: Help me decide the name of my bitcoin gambling website
Post by: boopy265420 on June 23, 2015, 08:01:02 AM
I will say keep the existing name and add one extra to domain which to redirect the bitcoinsharp to existing one.This way you can reach to new users while keep the existing users by providing them hassle free access to the site.I watched at some site you can access using two three different urls.I don't have idea how it really works but it id practiced by some sites.


Title: Re: Help me decide the name of my bitcoin gambling website
Post by: bitstealth on June 23, 2015, 08:40:41 AM
BitcoinSharp is more good than other names, i have voted for this name.


Title: Re: Help me decide the name of my bitcoin gambling website
Post by: Havelivi on June 23, 2015, 08:50:54 AM
I also say that keep the current name and other both names bitsharp and bitcoinsharp add these as sub domain which redirect to the existing name, which is familiar among the most players who are visiting you site on regularly to check about the status of gambling there.


Title: Re: Help me decide the name of my bitcoin gambling website
Post by: xeryan on June 23, 2015, 09:04:38 AM
I vote bitcoin-betting-guide.com

It's good for SEO and for a visitor easily reflects the website's goal.
Obviously keep the other domains as redirect.


Title: Re: Help me decide the name of my bitcoin gambling website
Post by: umairsaleem019 on June 23, 2015, 09:14:40 AM
Bitsharp is a nice brandable name.


Title: Re: Help me decide the name of my bitcoin gambling website
Post by: bitcoinmasterlord on June 23, 2015, 09:27:16 AM
I vote bitcoin-betting-guide.com

It's good for SEO and for a visitor easily reflects the website's goal.
Obviously keep the other domains as redirect.

Site dashes is not good, exact match does not work like before. Google has already updated its algo.


Title: Re: Help me decide the name of my bitcoin gambling website
Post by: lottoitaliano on June 23, 2015, 10:11:16 AM
For www.bitcoinsharp.com and www.bitsharp.net i prefer the first, because is more simply understand the bitcoin, but even if is more long, i prefer your original name bitcoin betting guide


Title: Re: Help me decide the name of my bitcoin gambling website
Post by: xeryan on June 23, 2015, 10:33:40 AM

@OP before you rebrand your site, you need to change your layout as well. It is not browser friendly. A crappy responsive layout is being used. In smaller browser, menu is getting broken and coming in double line.


Title: Re: Help me decide the name of my bitcoin gambling website
Post by: twister on June 23, 2015, 11:12:26 AM
I'd go with Bitsharp, it's nice small and catchy, although the preivous name of your site describes what it is about much better but it is too long and when it comes to domain names small and names which are easy to remember are usually better ones.


Title: Re: Help me decide the name of my bitcoin gambling website
Post by: Joca97 on June 23, 2015, 11:23:12 AM
Bitsharp sound okey,but you should create a pool so people can vote for some of those names
that you have putted in your op...


Title: Re: Help me decide the name of my bitcoin gambling website
Post by: trafficolaa on June 23, 2015, 11:25:33 AM
bitcoin-betting-guide.com original and old name good to keep that one but after this bitcoinsharp is looking nice so better first you make announcement at old site about this changes and put a link which redirect to this new link than it will be easy for users to keep accessing to new site without any confusion.


Title: Re: Help me decide the name of my bitcoin gambling website
Post by: Bitcoin Betting Guide on June 23, 2015, 11:26:37 AM
Well thanks so much for the kind words about the site. Being non-technical it has sometimes been frustrating and expensive to get the Bitcoin Betting Guide (http://bitcoin-dice-guide.com/dice-investment-comparison/) where it is but overall I love working on it. It took me 30 years to find something I am good at and even then it only worked because of bitcoin :)

About the name I am now paralyzed by indecision, I did not want to lay it all out at the start incase it affected the votes but this was how I saw the pros and cons of each choice. I have put the current vote tally next to each one, here is where to vote https://docs.google.com/forms/d/1w7Sn7FrlyrK5AuJSiLW6hrZXFj0x48tT67EB8aThheY/viewform

Bitcoin Sharp www.bitcoinsharp.com 11 votes
Advantages
* Brandable and memorable
* .com
* Contains the word “bitcoin” for search results

No change, keep existing name and URL 12 votes
Advantages
* Existing brand awareness, trust, google index, back links, IT setup et cetera, its working well so far.
* Contains the word “bitcoin” and “bet” for search results
* Uniform with the name and URL of sister sites (Bitcoin Casino Guide, Bitcoin Poker Guide et cetera)

Disadvantages
* Long
* Boring
* Key words separated by – is considered spammy by some

Bitsharp www.bitsharp.net 14 votes
Advantages
* More brandable and more memorable
* Short
* Unique “word” pronounces well in English

Disadvantages
* .net

And all the feedback I have gotten has been variations on these items, except one person said they like www.bitsharp.net becasue it is more versitile in an uncertain future, so if Etherium or dash take over it could still be used. I note that most people voting for no change are already past visitors and a rebranding is more about, new, future, visitors.

IDK but the longer no decision is made the more likely we don't change it. Thanks for all your contributions.

Post by: horace0812 on June 23, 2015, 01:54:34 PM
bitsharp would be a nice name


Title: Re: Help me decide the name of my bitcoin gambling website
Post by: GotaPauj on June 23, 2015, 01:57:16 PM
If you use "-" it is not for seo, and many other things.
I think bitsharp is better than others.


Title: Re: Help me decide the name of my bitcoin gambling website
Post by: ShamrockHannah on June 23, 2015, 04:38:25 PM
Bitsharp does sound good. It's short, sweet and snappy.

Although I think the original name is more descriptive and relevant to the content of the site.
Also to avoid confusion with regular visitors. I would suggest just keeping the original name.


Title: Re: Help me decide the name of my bitcoin gambling website
Post by: kenw2 on June 23, 2015, 05:15:37 PM
I like Bitsharp, you could even use sharp with the definition of smart by having a motto of something like, "Stay sharp in betting with bitsharp!"   8)


Title: Re: Help me decide the name of my bitcoin gambling website
Post by: agustina2 on June 23, 2015, 05:54:13 PM
bitsharp is a good name, simple, well remembered and "sharp" of course.. the current name just like PC and Console game.. "guide-walktrough" why u dont add cheat and gameshark its complete Console game LOL


Title: Re: Help me decide the name of my bitcoin gambling website
Post by: nekochan05 on July 11, 2015, 09:23:38 PM
Bitsharp.. simply & unique word will easy to remember and recommended..
i think .net will not be a disadvantages at all when every visitors got comfortable and familiar to visit the web..


Title: Re: Help me decide the name of my bitcoin gambling website
Post by: FairlaySupport on July 12, 2015, 03:33:45 AM
We like the current name. It sounds universal.


Title: Re: Help me decide the name of my bitcoin gambling website
Post by: waterpile on July 12, 2015, 04:34:52 AM
In my opinion bitsharp sounds catchy plus people tend to memorize it faster if the name is short


Title: Re: Help me decide the name of my bitcoin gambling website
Post by: wadili89 on July 12, 2015, 11:16:42 AM
is it itself a betting and gambling website or information about it if only information then your current domain is better and have keyword in it because people search the exact line in google or if its a gambling site then current domain dont sounds rite then you can convert it to bitsharp.net


Title: Re: Help me decide the name of my bitcoin gambling website
Post by: michael23 on July 12, 2015, 02:51:38 PM
Why not shortened your existing name as bitbetguide.com for example, I think its a better idea. But bitcoinsharp is also an ideal name if you like it.


Title: Re: Help me decide the name of my bitcoin gambling website
Post by: sbankerdemon on July 12, 2015, 03:06:06 PM
My vote to bitcoinsharp is cool


Title: Re: Help me decide the name of my bitcoin gambling website
Post by: Bardman on July 12, 2015, 04:35:38 PM
You have to keep in mind what your website is really for and that is exactly what your first name was/is bitcoin betting guide, it might not sound that cool but bitsharp for example doesnt say anything about your site, the sharp doesnt say anything about it and i would associate it more with an exchange so you may want to think of other names.


Title: Re: Help me decide the name of my bitcoin gambling website
Post by: 98problems on July 12, 2015, 04:54:28 PM
bitsharp sound really cool in my opinion, but bitcoin sharp could attract more bitcoin visitors from the internet as there is concrete word bitcoin in it


Title: Re: Help me decide the name of my bitcoin gambling website

I would name it BitGambit, sounds mutant ;)

the word gambit has been already taken www.gambit.com (https://www.gambit.com/) using it might cause people to think that the two sites have a relation to each other. So it is better to use another name for it

I don't really know much about SEO, but wouldn't changing your site URL mean you have to start from scratch? And it looks like bitcoin-betting-guide.com is ranking pretty well? Again, I don't know much about SEO, so please correct me if I'm wrong.


Title: Re: Help me decide the name of my bitcoin gambling website
Post by: joksim299 on July 13, 2015, 12:56:43 AM

they could use url redirect at first, people that open the old link will redirected to the new url until the new url getting more established.

Rico means rich in portuguese/spanish.

Post by: krunox123 on July 13, 2015, 11:07:39 AM
IMHO, BitSharp.Net sounds better than Bitcoin-Betting-Guide.Com. :)
If I were you, I'd go for BitSharp.Net.

I choose BitSharp.Net because it is short and easy to remember.


Title: Re: Help me decide the name of my bitcoin gambling website
Post by: AlwaysSunny on July 13, 2015, 11:21:51 AM
Whatever you choose, more people need to know about your site, it's by far the best resource around for BTC sportsbetting reviews and information.

Your content is excellent, would be great to have a place for people to discuss it - have you thought about starting a thread like Peeps Place's one?


Title: Re: Help me decide the name of my bitcoin gambling website
Post by: patt0 on July 13, 2015, 12:34:47 PM
Just voted and I prefer Bitsharp, but wouldn't Bitshark be more ralated to gambling.
Maybe this is because I play poker (although I like betting to), but normally, at least in poker, we call a good player a "shark".

Anyway if you really prefer the "sharp" term, I would definitely go for the shorter one (bitsharp) because it's easier to remember.

As for the 2 options I would go for the Bitsharp ;)

Post by: vendetahome on July 13, 2015, 06:42:57 PM
in my opinion bitsharp is way better as it is really easy to pronounce and easy to understand you should go with it


Title: Re: Help me decide the name of my bitcoin gambling website
Post by: grendel25 on July 14, 2015, 01:12:21 AM
I voted to keep it the same.  The new name options both end up with folks referring to it in short hand as BS.  BBG is way better than BS.  If anything, maybe you could just shorten up or add an alt link that is simply BBG.  Good luck with your site in the future. 


Title: Re: Help me decide the name of my bitcoin gambling website

Post by: bitedge on July 16, 2015, 01:36:30 AM

This is OP posting on my new account. The results of the voting are

www.bitcoinsharp.com 23%

No change 33%

www.bitsharp.net 44%

And following the precedent set in Greek democracy we are ignoring the votes and making our own choice hahaha. We have renamed the site Bitedge! Read all about it and the history of the site here

https://bitedge.com/blog/introducing-bitedge-the-improved-bitcoin-betting-guide/

I am joking about ignoring the votes, when we made the pole we had not had the idea of www.bitedge.co but the votes and feedback in this forum did contribute greatly to the decision. It told us that a change to a short memorable name was favoured and that .com is not a must. We also heard that "sharp" is slightly too niche and even those in the target audience might not get it.

You can verify this post is legit by going to any address on the old http://bitcoin-betting-guide.com/ and you will be redirected to the corresponding page on www.bitedge.co

The other changes are the logo, the Odds comparisons (https://bitedge.com/odds-comparisons/) update every 15 minutes, the site is faster and there are no banner ads!

Every bettor wants an edge and bitcoin plus the Bitcoin Betting Guide was the best way to get one. “Bitcoin Betting Guide” was a literal description of the website whereas “Bitedge” is the essence of what we are about, Bitedge is our identity. Bitedge’s goal is to be the world’s leading source of bitcoin sports betting information.

These are the Odds comparisons we will be adding in the next few months;
NFL
NCAA Football
NBA
NCAA basketball
NHL
Spanish, German, Italian and UEFA Champions League Soccer
US Presidential election!

We have just added Fairlay (review here (https://bitedge.com/bitcoin-sportsbook-reviews/fairlay-review)) and will soon add a 6th top bitcoin sportsbook to the comparison tables.

We are fascinated by the upcoming surge of bitcoin betting on the 2016 US presidential election. We have a broad overview of Political betting, consequences and the role of bitcoin (https://bitedge.com/blog/the-rise-of-political-betting-consequences-and-the-role-of-bitcoin/) and a Betting preview (https://bitedge.com/blog/bitcoin-betting-on-the-2016-us-presidential-election/) of the election itself.

Thanks for reading and have fun bitcoining!

I know that it's not in your options, only in the poll but I core for bitcoin-betting-guide.com.. it's the best domain name just for your website. Everyone knows when he go if he see the domain name, so it's really easy, however, the name is long and you should make something like this but not that long.. think about it :)

Among all available choices we have i go for www.bitsharp.net. Don't know but it reminds me to bitstamp, which stands for reliable and strong crypto exchange.

So 44% vote went to bitsharp, no surprise for me there. That is a very good choice imo. Short catchy words like this are often the best names for services and new domains.
Now I wait to see how this site will be doing and if bitsharp name will bring popularity with it.

Poor choice of name IMHO, nothing related with gambling.

OP gave us three options to discuss which one we consider is the most eye attractive and even exposed to what we should be attention at but at the very end he completely chose something completely else. So he flushed our opinions down the toilet.  ::)

This is OP posting on my new account. The results of the voting are

www.bitcoinsharp.com 23%

No change 33%

www.bitsharp.net 44%

And following the precedent set in Greek democracy we are ignoring the votes and making our own choice hahaha. We have renamed the site Bitedge! Read all about it and the history of the site here

www.bitedge.co/blog/introducing-bitedge-the-improved-bitcoin-betting-guide/

I am joking about ignoring the votes, when we made the pole we had not had the idea of www.bitedge.co but the votes and feedback in this forum did contribute greatly to the decision. It told us that a change to a short memorable name was favoured and that .com is not a must. We also heard that "sharp" is slightly too niche and even those in the target audience might not get it.

You can verify this post is legit by going to any address on the old http://bitcoin-betting-guide.com/ and you will be redirected to the corresponding page on www.bitedge.co

The other changes are the logo, the Odds comparisons (http://www.bitedge.co/odds-comparison/) update every 15 minutes, the site is faster and there are no banner ads!

Every bettor wants an edge and bitcoin plus the Bitcoin Betting Guide was the best way to get one. “Bitcoin Betting Guide” was a literal description of the website whereas “Bitedge” is the essence of what we are about, Bitedge is our identity. Bitedge’s goal is to be the world’s leading source of bitcoin sports betting information.

These are the Odds comparisons we will be adding in the next few months;
NFL
NCAA Football
NBA
NCAA basketball
NHL
Spanish, German, Italian and UEFA Champions League Soccer
US Presidential election!

We have just added Fairlay (review here (http://www.bitedge.co/bitcoin-sportsbook-reviews/fairlay-review)) and will soon add a 6th top bitcoin sportsbook to the comparison tables.

We are fascinated by the upcoming surge of bitcoin betting on the 2016 US presidential election. We have a broad overview of Political betting, consequences and the role of bitcoin (http://www.bitedge.co/blog/the-rise-of-political-betting-consequences-and-the-role-of-bitcoin/) and a Betting preview (http://www.bitedge.co/blog/bitcoin-betting-on-the-2016-us-presidential-election/) of the election itself.

Thanks for reading and have fun bitcoining!

Bitedge is good.  I would have voted for that if it were an option.  Better to have a shorthand nomenclature of BE instead of BS.  lol... Well, good luck and I'll be checking it out.

This thread has also shown me posters here do not read the thread, they are probably just posting to increase their signature count, which is fine.

Never use dot net domain names they are very cheap and low quality domain names. always go for dot com domain names

I suggest you to use
Bitcoin Sharp www.bitcoinsharp.com this one

because of that he should change the name of the topic and the first post as no one reads anything else besides those, in such way people would see that it has ended already
