I'm combining my web sites into one. Should it be stevepartys.com or steveparties.com?

And it isn't even up yet so please don't delete this kind mods. Laughing

steveparties is correct in the sense that steve "parties hardy"...

am surprised a party-animal such as yourself doesn't know the answer Razz

steveparties is there is more than one party. Stevepartys if you are simply refering to yourself and what you do. I'm a writer. I know these things.

incidentally, the only time "partys" is correct is when it has an apostrophe...

Are you sure? Parties sounds like a plural noun. Partys would be a singlular verb, wouldn't it?

Well, if steve is hosting a bunch of them, then parties, or stevesparties.
