I'm sorry you feel this is very limited, but so far all you've provided were very limited and generic slogans and can see you are starting to take offense.

I'm trying to help you here, don't forget that. If we can come up with something and i helped, you can keep the reward. I would be more than pleased to know a new start-up was born and it accepts bitcoin too.

Anyway, this isn't a debate about my company name, why I chose it, etc...

It is, because the slogan is directly connected to it.

I offer the same services as HostGator.

Ok. So let's take a look at their company name and see what it can reveal.

What message "HostGator" sends you ? Could be a... website hosting service fit like an alligator ? Or a home like an alligator's lair ?

Anyway, TizzyTazzy is just a name I thought up with that wouldn't be so generic to the common web hosting business names, most hosts use something like "namehereHOST" or "HOSTnamehere".

I also wanted to have a friendly crazy/looney mascot that would represent TizzyTazzy, just some visions I had and liked.

Found it. So you want a generic/any audience slogan to go with a "special" company name that doesn't appeal everyone. I can say the name is kind of... sleazy, you wouldn't want to pass that to your audience. The public doesn't know you or your company personally so the first impression is everything. You have a very limited space in your name and slogan to pass important info about yourself to your clients. Maybe your name will be a verb in the future just like "google" but you will have to listen carefully when people tell you their impressions.

Please get your facts straight before asking for other people's help and offering rewards, it seems like we started on the wrong foot here.

You don't offer "cloud" services like Amazon, we understand that. What are your services btw ?

I offer the same services as HostGator.

CloudHosting takes more resources/servers and at the moment cannot be offered, so I currently lean towards the most popular forms of hosting.

I'm sorry you feel this is very limited, but so far all you've provided were very limited and generic slogans and can see you are starting to take offense.

Anyway, this isn't a debate about my company name, why I chose it, etc. If you want to try a slogan, go for it. If not, please stop making this so complicated.

From the website it looks like plain-old shared hosting (not cloud), dedi & VPS servers, SSL & domains.

I have no reason to try to avoid anything, but I am doing literally about 20+ things at one time on my computer, so I may miss something here and there.

Try focusing for a moment, like we do right now, and let's come up with something.

Quote from: TizzyTazzy on May 28, 2012, 09:17:59 AM

The "issue" about knowing what my market is would be a matter of opinion and who I choose to target. As it so happens I do host websites for older people who don't have much technical experience and it also so happens that my grandmother who does sponsorship for college students came to me the other day asking about how and where to get a website.

I get that allot but the elder people usually want... an e-mail. Grin

There are some exceptions off course.

Quote from: TizzyTazzy on May 28, 2012, 09:17:59 AM

I'm 21 and have been working with web hosting related businesses since I was 14.

Like we all did some time in our lives. That's how we all started.

I keep my stance, "Come with us in/on the cloud/s"

(Come with us in the clouds,
Come with us on the clouds,
Come with us in the cloud,
Come with us on the cloud)

I did answer your origin question..

Yeah she did tell me all about the conversation she had that included: "well we have a facebook page, does that count as a website?".

I'm sorry but again those terms are too generic or I'd have to say over used. Cloud services are a service on its own, if all I did was offer cloud hosting then I'd be much more open to those type of slogans. At this moment I don't even offer cloud hosting, but will in the future.

-Slogan shouldn't include any part of the name.
-Shouldn't include any word such as host or technical mumbo jumbo.

The target audience is everyone in general, so the part about the cloud (as well as host) might not be understood by many, plus that is a very generic slogan, I remember seeing lots of similar slogans when cloud specific hosting started booming.

My proposal can be used with or without the company name. It doesn't include any tech "mumbo-jumbo", "cloud" is as generic as it gets, i don't get what you meant by that. IT professionals know what a "cloud" is on internet, normal users that want to host a server think is a "high level-quality" hosting.

At this point, I may drop having a slogan all together as some have suggested I do.

So you're not determined about having a slogan that everyone likes after all. You're demotivating me with those statements Undecided

Cloud is technical since anyone to understand this term would have to know what meaning it would have in the first place in the web hosting/tech world.

Like I said, I'm trying to target everyone, from grandmas to 10 year old coders/hackers.

I'm sorry I'm demotivating you, I try to be honest and true when I give my opinions.

Ok so you're avoiding the name origin question, i understand.

You seem to have an issue at knowing what your market is, if you ask me, because grandmas don't host internet websites but they try to make an effort to use them.

How are the "clouds" on the sky technical ? By using "cloud" you send them the message that sky is the limit. Just ponder a few moments on the technicality of the word "cloud".

Your honesty is much appreciated. How old are you if I may ? I'm still 28 until July 13 Cheesy

When I heard tizzy tazzy, first word reminded me of someone getting in a tizzy (kind of appropriate when I read the thread)

(UK) A state of panic or confusion
Don't get yourself in a tizzy, now, dear.

A state of nervous excitement or confusion; a dither.
A highly excited and distracted state of mind.

But at first I mistook it for tissy

http://www.urbandictionary.com/define.php?term=tissy%20fit

& the second word sounds like a pet name or some Aussie slang for a Tasmanian devil

Right, most people you know.

And that reference to cloud has very different meanings in different areas of both the real world and technical world.

I would also say that less people know what web hosting is than know what cloud is, and much less would be interested in buying hosting.

I'd say that most people would understand what cloud means, thanks to Apple's iCloud service and Microsoft's TV marketing campaigns ("to the cloud").

Most people I know anyways understand the term.

Right, most people you know. As it be, most people I know personally aren't very technical and have Apple products, if I asked them to explain what Cloud meant to them they would all say something very different.

Quote from: TizzyTazzy on May 28, 2012, 08:45:09 AM

Ever heard of a business that under promises what they offer or seems like they might not be that great?

This is also part of why I chose the name, many businesses over promise and try so hard to look what society deems professional, that when you go to use the service you find out it is garbage.

I absolutely love the fact that this guy came in with low expectations only to be very much surprised.

Overall, business is great for the little amount of advertising that has been done so far, and like I said the name has been a "you hate it" or "love it" situation. The name gives something people to talk about, and I love that.

Maybe it is because I'm left handled that the way I think is unusual or different. Tongue

I'm fine by that.

So you're saying the name prepares people to expect poor service? English isn't my first language, but I've reread that post many times and that sounds like the gist of it.

When I hear Tizzy Tazzy hosting, it reminds me of "silly little girl hosting inc". Thats the impression it gives me, doesn't make it seem like a very reliable service. Thats just my opinion though & I assume other people think differently, but paraipan seems to think the same, and so does that reviewer.

Not to expect poor service, but not to expect the best either. You have to understand some marketing to get where I'm coming from. One type of good and honest marketing is to never over promise or fluff everything up, but to under promise what you offer leaving people that do use the service inclined to leave positive feedback.

Of course the more popular business practice is to appear professional, over promise this and that, etc. I personally don't choose a host by its name and I pretty much foresaw these types of comments, it was to be expected.

Sorry for not answering your question yet, I was distracted from the above users issues, just a discouragement from coming here.

Anyway, TizzyTazzy is just a name I thought up with that wouldn't be so generic to the common web hosting business names, most hosts use something like "namehereHOST" or "HOSTnamehere".

I also wanted to have a friendly crazy/looney mascot that would represent TizzyTazzy, just some visions I had and liked.

Nice

Let's work together, trolls included, and make you a new and shiny slogan

I was thinking a few hours ago at the name you chose for your service and an instant question came in... are your sure you did chose the right name for it ? Is sounds real funny, like a mascot name or anything else, but not like a serious hosting service, just my opinion i'm not bashing you or your business. I would have liked "Tizz Cloud" or "Tizz Hosting" for example and the mascot's name be "Tizzy Tazzy". Looking for a nice and original slogan would be more easy if the "base" inspires something serious and stable. What do you think ?

"Tizz Hosting, come with us in/on the cloud".

Google sounds serious.
Yahoo sounds serious.
Bing sounds serious.
GoDaddy sounds serious.

I could go on but you get the idea.

TizzyTazzy has been a name people either love or hate, either way, the name will remain. If you can't understand the concept of the name, then you probably won't be able to come up with a slogan for it.

A serious business doesn't need what society might label as a serious name.

Fine, point taken. Let's keep that in mind. You got two words in there and "tazzy" is the one making me nervous, dunno why, will have ask a psychologist on it.

So how about this:

This is all very offtopic, but I feel the same way about the name, IMO a name change is required. I personally wouldn't host my site at a hosting company that gave off the impression of being non-serious, I'd prefer a company who's branding gave me confidence in their service (Rackspace, Softlayer for example)

This guy said the same thing:

In summary, I'd recommend TizzyTazzy for the great support, service and price. Do not let the name keep you away. These guys are good!
