Thank you Bill for generously sharing your experience with domain names from an end user’s standpoint. Very insightful. All the best to your business! I tried missellie.com but it did not resolve. Miss Ellie is found on Coffee.org. Are you not actively promoting the Miss Ellie as your corporate brand?
Bill McClure says
KC., great comment. We had over 300 coffee sites, including Miss Ellie’s plural and single. Google was confused. Today, the domain goes to a special page on the coffee.org site. Bill
