Hello, I am working on weather portal for travellers with lot's of cities, forecasts and weather archive for different months. Right now I am choosing a domain, which one sounds better for english speaking guys?

weather4holidays.com
weatherandholidays.com
holidaysweather.com

Probably you would offer some other one. Thanks!

Is this a serious discussion?

At one time ... then the absurdity of discussion potential domain names IN PUBLIC became obvious.

Or not...

YMMV

Well, I finally bought weather-and-travel.com

Do you think it is OK?

I think it's perfectly okay. Of course you may have to deal with the un-hyphenated version of the same words / domain . . but that domain appears to be parked so you may have a certain "first mover advantage".

It's unwise to publicly discuss potential domain registrations (of currently unregistered domains) since anyone viewing the public discussion would be free to swoop in and register the domain-idea for themselves.

We've made it policy and practice @ WebmasterWorld to avoid discussing specific domain names but that policy hasn't always been the easiest one to live with . . since we are, after all, a domain name forum. Lately I've been willing to loosen application of that policy so long as the discussion offers something a bit more interesting than self-promotion of anyone's domain or website. This discussion of specifics fell within that exception: something of value beyond straight up self-promotion. I trust the participation of the members of WebmasterWorld has been of some value in your decision making process.

Since you've made your decision and now acted, by acquiring your domain (registered 8-12-19), it's time to wind down this discussion of specific domains to a close.

Good luck on the next stage of your adventure.

@webwork ... thanks for allowing the thread! Reasons for not chatting domains, and reasons for allowing SOME discussion was fully displayed.

Kudos!

rigorous honesty? they're all either way forced or grammatically poor...either way not good...you'd be better off coming up with a meaningful word or short phrase related to that that would be more "catchy" - even if it were something like (off the top of my head) "The EggnogBlog" (forgive my lack of ccreativity it's 330 am where I am and I'm fading lol) that would beat the "4" insteado f for or either of the other two by a mile
