To make this easier, follow this outline:</p> <ol> <li>Whenever possible, use one or two full words.</li> <li>If possible, avoid abbreviations.</li> <li>Avoid numbers in the name (such as the event edition number) at all costs.</li> </ol> <img src="https://kindofidea.com/images/nomear-sites.jpg" alt="outline for naming websites" /> <p>Understand the relative importance of the points above: prioritize the full name, written out. If using an abbreviation is unavoidable, that’s fine—use it, but avoid adding numbers to the name.</p>
