When hubbuzz.com was in its
gestation period, pre-name, coming up with a name was quite a task –
the difficulty of which we hadn’t expected. Apartments, neighborhoods,
rent, spaces, places, digs, pad, home – these words, while all useful,
are all very used. So we wound up with the concept of coining our own
term, and it has served us well so far (though it’s sometimes difficult
to communicate over the phone.)
Sometimes we are surprised
(mostly pleasantly) at the congruity between our URL, www.hubbuzz.com,
and some other sites that are out there on the World Wide Web. Here are
some of our common-law friends:
www.grubhub.com – restaurants in your neighborhood that deliver
www.hubspot.com – management tool for website marketing
www.newshub.com – news aggregator, you pick the sources
www.yourhub.com – neighborhood-based newspaper/website
www.coloradobizbuzz.com – rate local service providers
buzz.yahoo.com – rank stories based on you name it
www.hubinternational.com – insurance company and, yes, they have renters’ insurance
www.buzz.com – site that aggregates the hottest blogs
buzz.blogger.com – Google’s Blogger team news
www.justbuzz.com – commissionable comic artist’s site
buzzfeed.com – make stories popular and find out what’s popular with everyone else
www.buzznet.com – a site for fans of screamo emo bands
www.hubpages.com – online publishing on any subject from amateurs and experts
www.foodbuzz.com – food reviews and recipes from “foodies” in cities around the word
And there are, no doubt, many more.
We like our URL/name best, of course. “Hub” is a good term to use in
talking about cities and neighborhoods and buzz is what’s all goin’
on…and out tagline helps clarify our mission:
Cities. Neighborhoods. Apartments. Life.
