How long is to long for a domain web address?

I have found 3 names I like for a new (should be high traffic) website, ranging from 10 to 15 letters long - excluding the .com or .co.uk on the end. The longest domain name is also the best descriptive name wise!

IMO Nothing wrong with long domain names if they are easy to remember and spell.

15 characters is not long!

Will some body remember it after seeing it only once? if it's unlikely, then it's too long.

It's not so much a matter of what is too long, it's more to do with the name being memorable, easy to remember, and type in.

Yeah 15 characters isn't really that long compared to lots of other websites.

How many words is it split into it?

15 characters isn't too long if it's clear and easy to remember. And if you want a matching Twitter username, then 15 characters is right on the limit.

4 Words plus the .co.uk

 

Those don't sound like they are too long Steve, and I'd just ensure they are easily spelt for the average reader.

Easy remembered, easy spelt, and nothing too confusing...and you'll be fine.

I have a double 'C' in the middle of my main domain name (ComspecComputers) and it's amazing the number of people who forget to put it in...hence I always use some capitals in any printed docs etc.

Could this one be to long?
