groupsq22.jpgAfter a lot of thinking and long discussions with my husband, I finally chose a name for the site. Even though HerProBlog.COM is not all that different from ProBlogHer.COM it was still difficult to decide whether that was the best name. There were a lot of names I came up with but none of them seemed to offer what ProBlogHer.COM did. ProBlogHer was a play on words because it sounded similar to Problogger. It also offered the “Her” to suggest it was for women.

HerProBlog.COM does offer the somewhat of the same feel as ProBlogHer.COM. Now instead of the name referring to an individual professional women blogger, it now refers to a women blogger’s professional blog. The name will still offers the same words just in different order. I use the dot com because it will make it easier for people to remember.

The site is still under construction but I am working hard on getting the site ready for launch. I brought on another great mind to be apart of HerProBlog.COM. To keep you on your toes, I will announce her name on a later date ;)

    Plus with a name like “ProBlogHer” I’m sure someone would complain and call you a domain squatter since it is similar to Darren’s blog.

    Maybe even something like “SheProBlogs.com” would have worked.

    I never thought of being called a domain squatter. I thought that meant something else. Anyway, don’t have to worry about it now. SheProBlogs would have been a good name too but I think HerProBlog will work too.
    I did end up buying SheProBlogs.com incase I change my mind :) though. I am not sure if I am getting carried away with choosing a name for this site.

    The domain name is quite weird for problogher.com. Just go for herproblog.com, just my suggestion. or buy both and point problogher to herproblog.:)

    Hi Mona,
    Great choice of your new domain name and cant wait to visit your finished site. Nothing like a little intrigue to keep us on our toes and look forward to your announcement.
