I like classiccoinop as long as you are doing more than just Coke machines, i.e jukeboxes, games, candy machines.

Bryan makes a good point about the meta tags.  This is code that is written into your web pages that the search engines look at to determine what your site is about.  Basically it's a list of possible words that people might use in their search that could bring them to your site.  Use as many words and phrases as are relevant.

And while you are looking into domain hosts look at what they offer in registering with the major search engines like yahoo and google.  With most of the biggies you have to pay to add your domain name to their list of searchable sites.  Some places include this service when you buy your domain name through them.

That said, I wouldn't get too wrapped around the axle about it.  With time your name will get out through forums such as this one and whomever you decide to advertise with.  Go for it!  I think you will enjoy it.

Well I think I have found someone to do my site. I have another idea for a name. Since I had so much fun doing the Frosty machine and I plan to do a bunch of theme machines such as Mountain Dew and more Frosty what do you think about www.customcola.com. I need your input. Please if anyone has any ideas please spit them out.

Seems fine, but sounds more like a type of beverage.
Maybe, "CustomSodaMachines.com"?
Just a suggestion, do what you like best.

I agree. I will check if it is taken. Thank you all so much for your help.

Josh, I just now checked and at this moment, it is available (and I thought all the good .coms were taken)!

So grab it before someone else from this forum steals it from you. Heh heh. '<img'>

I am going to talk to someone tomorrow about building the site. I don't want anything fancy at all. Just something simple that gets the job done. I am really tired of the ebay thing. Even if I have to keep machines for a while as inventory that is fine. It's not like I don't have enough machines to sell to have a buisness. I have 7 in my garage right now and I just bought the 4 Vendo 23's and the new ad just started so I think I have enough machines now I just need to get a few done. I am keeping one of the Cavalier 55's and possibly one of the 23's for myself. It is about time to make one and keep it.

I think I am going to have him put a pic of the vendo 56 in the middle instead so that there is a pic of a Coke machine in there somewhere. Does anyone have any suggestions. By the way Jim may I put a link on my site for Soda-machines.com.
