Does Your Domain Name Give the Wrong Message?

I just read a very funny posting at the blog Independent Sources about unintentionally bad company URLs.  One of the points I always try and convey to my clients is to brand themselves via their domain name.  However, I’ve never taken a look at my domain names from the perspective of this posting..and I hope I don’t have a “new” domain name lurking beneath..LOL  Do you see the “lurking” company brands and tag lines in these domain names?  Look at the actual URls first, then the “real” domain name:

1. A site called ‘Who Represents‘ where you can find the name of the agent that represents a celebrity. Their domain name… wait for it… is
www.whorepresents.com

2. Experts Exchange, a knowledge base where programmers can exchange advice and views at
