I decided on Oakville Admin. I initially went looking for a short (5 letter) domain name and found "oakaa.com" available so I registered Oakville Admin Associates. After a couple of networking events when people asked me "what was the Oakville Admin Association?", I decided to drop the "Associates", so now I'm just plain old Oakville Admin. While the name sounds kind of boring and pedestrian, it does have the advantage that if someone local Googles "Oakville" + "admin" or "virtual assistance" or "secretarial services", I come up near the top in Google and it seems to have worked to my advantage. I have many clients some ongoing, some one-off projects that found me that way.

I do have Oakville Admin Associates and Oakville Admin registered with the province, so if I become a multi-va practice or associate with others, I can still use that.

I recently registered YourVirtualTimesaver.com which is forwarded to oakaa.com and I'm using that in my marketing. I also registered oakvilleadmin.com and that is the url for my web space that is hosted on IVAA.
