What about edjennings.co?
Short domains are nice, but abbreviations can be harder to remember.
ed.jennings@edjennings.co seems like the world's worst domain name option ever.
The same can be said for eddiejenningservices.com
True, which is why I'd opt to not using my name for my LLC. . . but hey. . . this isn't my LLC. .

Right, but whatever you choose for your business name should be clear in the URL. In think if you tell people six letters in a domain, it's harder to remember vs remembering your name.

It's true that the longer version may be a pain in the ass to type, but what is going to be easier for your clients to remember? Even with the longer domain, once someone sends you an email, their email client will likely remember the address and autocomplete. For yourself if the email is used across multiple other sites as login ID, you likely have a password manager so that'll also complete. If I were a client, it would be easier to remember the longer domain instead of the one with a non-standard TLD.
That's my point. Those Six letters aren't memorable
-
Edjtech.co and ejtech.co are available as well. It's short but easier to remember.
-
It is easy to remember... it's like saying "e-jay's LLC" .com: ejsllc.com

but they are easier to tell/advertise. and when the site is hit, it can redirect to the full name.

That was also my thought.

That domain is already stuck in my head... damnit.

But to answer the general question. using LLC in the domain name is just bad sounding period.
Use something like @IRJ mentioned

I am pretty sure my partner and I owned ejtech.com back in 2003, but that business never went anywhere.

Me too. The whole point of having an LLC is legal separation from personal assets.

Well the two are still separated, but in a lawsuit who is being sued. The business or the person?
-
@eddiejennings the first one that popped in my head was EdJennings.com

The business. Even though I'm a single-member LLC, I have a clear line of separation between personal and business assets.

I read it as EJS LLC. I've also considered changing the official name to "EJS" as well.

Yeah I have the same with my LLC, but the question was if your LLC is named Eddie Jennings, and you are Eddie Jennings, who is being sued. The LLC or the Business.

"Eddie Jennings" isn't my full legal name, so I would imagine if I, myself, were sued, I imagine they'd use my full legal name.

The LLC name has nothing to do with the actual DBA business name and domain name used. The LLC is just a legal wrapper to protect your personal property.

Nobody went and bought all of the domains he listed and then sold them back to him a a higher price? Slackers
