Hi everyone!<p>I'm seeking to launch a marketplace website for local activities, and currently feel for the name HelloWorldHQ the most.<p>May I seek anyone's advice on whether this name is bad for SEO, or even in general a bad name?<p>thanks!!

Bad names are good for SEO. Good names have no intrinsic SEO value.<p>e.g. Twitter, Skype, Foursquare are all pretty good names. But have no SEO benefit.<p>e.g. local-activities.com is good for SEO, but I've already forgotten it, it's so generic.<p>So do you want to build a big business, or just a nice tickover organic traffic-based business. That's the decision. If it's the former, go for a great name. If it's the latter, go with SEO.

1st rule of SEO is try to say what you do in the domain. Localactivities.com would be better.
