Forum or Forums?

[altious]

sitename/forum or sitename/forums

FoodForums.com or FoodForum.com

Which is the correct way?

[Lee G]

Buy both. That way your covered for simple mistakes and it stops competition trying to use your name to build up their own traffic.

Its too easy to add an s or miss an s at the end of a url and end up at a competitors web site.

I prefer not to use forums at all as forums can limit you in future for growing your site.

[altious]

Well I just want to know with or without the s is the correct way
Because I have a site right now with sitename/forum instead of /forums
is this fine? since I've seen alot of people call their board forums with the s

[kevinl]

He's saying not to use it in the actual name.

So if you make it foodforums/forum(s) it's kind of redundant. Pick a name more like food then your site can grow because you can have food/forums, food/blogs and so on... so it's not foodforums/blogs? It doesn't make sense, to me at least.

i dont use forum(s) of any kind in my urls.

[altious]

I know what he meant
but I already have sitename.com as my main site content but not a forum and my subdomain for my forum is sitename.com/forum
I just want an opinion should I name it /forum or the plural form /forums

and surely I wont name it foodforum/forum

[briansol]

do you have anything else besides a forum on it? if not, id suggest just putting the forum in root. no need for a sub-dir.

[altious]

Yes unfortunately I do

so is forum/forums better or the correct way of naming a forum plural or singular

Yeah I know. This is much better. The site in the root is the way to go.
