The Bloggers With The Most To Say
New Blog Name. Any New Ideas?
Hi everyone! So, today I thought. Hey, Christina (talking to myself), I think you need a new blog name. Lights.Camera.Drama is the original name and I recently updated the blog layout so a new blog layout needs a new blog name, right?
My blog is here. I talk about technology which includes social media and gadgets, entertainment (celebrity gossip), politics, and my dreams to establish my career in new media. So in all, its all about new media.
Now the reason why I want to change my blog's name is primarily for SOE (Search Engine Optimization) reasons. If I were to google my blog's name, it would come out as your first choice, but if you search on the other pages, you would not find my blog. Secondly, how many times will people google the word or words, "lights camera and drama" in one search? Probably one or two people if I am lucky.
I want something creative, memorable, and fun and reflects my topics and personality. I also want a name that will pull in more traffic. Any ideas?
Or should I keep the name? If I break down my current blog name, Lights = entertainment Camera= technology or entertainment Drama =My personal life, politics. LOL.

Hey Christina,
Personally, I really like lightscameradrama. SEO is a tricky job. I used to sweat thinking about ways to get my name top on every search. I have a relatively common-ish sort of a name, here in India. I started blogging in November 2008 and as of today, even if you type my name, the name of the earlier blog, or even remotely similar to some of my popular posts, my blog comes up.
I've personally rebooted all my blogs and I've switched to a new blog (click here if you wish to visit). The idea is that I want to create, maintain and grow only one identity online which I plan to do with this new blog. It's just a matter of time. I suggest if you like Lights, Camera and Drama; I suggest you stick with it. But if you still want more ideas, how about IdeasMelange; ChristinaThinksOnline; ChristinaSays or something like that? What kind of a name are you exactly looking for?
Hope this helps.
Manish :)

Popular Mechanics seems pretty cool. I am going to put these options on my list and ask my followers what they think so I can make a final decision. Thanks Stacy and Manish. :D

I have to decide first if I want to change it. Then, if I do, I may have them vote on it. I am in the preliminary stages.
I'm checking out your blog. You have a teacup yorkshire terrier on your header. Can I steal it? ^_^

Thanks! :)
You are right. I think I am going "Google Analytics, must look at how much traffic I have" paranoid. It's a habit I have to break. Must follow my blogging's resolution. LOL.
Now that you think about it, I think I may keep my name. Popular Mechanics seems like a cool name, but I think Lights. Camera. Drama. suits the blog. I do not know what I was thinking.
I just checked out your blog. It's hip and random. Randomness is good. Hope to see more of ur blog in the future. :)
Christina
