Question mark

Hey folks, I've got a small favour to ask. I desperately need help naming the more advanced version of Internet Hand-holding (that's an unfinished sales page btw - it'll be properly live next week).

I know you'd probably help for free because my people rock but as an added incentive, I'm offering a free consulting session (at the level of your choice and on the subject of your choice) for the person who comes up with the name I wind up using.

The more advanced level is currently called Website Tune-up, which I hate because I think it sounds like I'm offering way more technical help than I am.

I do have a reasonable amount of tech knowledge but the sessions are more about setting the person's intention for their internet use. It's about identifying their aims and then cooking up a strategy, so they go off thinking 'right, to achieve my aims, I need to do these these steps, in this order.' It's intended for artists and creative people who have some or even a lot of internet experience but need help sorting out a better strategy or need a friendly eye cast over their existing website. A lot of people were saying 'I don't need hand-holding, I need something else', so it's intended to appeal to those people.

But Website Tune-up definitely doesn't convey all that.

 

Here are the alternative names I've come up with:

 

1) Gordian Knot Specialist - I like this but I think it should go in the copy, not the title.
Variations: Gordian Knot Untangler or Gordian Knot Dismantler

2) Shit hot strategies - I like this but I think it's more of an e-book name

3) Web Detangling
Variations: Website Untangling or Internet untangling, Web Detangler, Untangle your website

4) Something using unravel, uncoil, untwist?

5) Something about strategies or tactics but I've no idea what?

6) Coaching for your Internet - dull!
Variations: Mentoring for your demented website (like this but I think it's sales copy not a name)
Therapy for your confused website - I'm not too keen on the therapy association, I think it might confuse people.

7) Confusion Removal Expert - more a description of me than the product

8) Something using the word catalyst

9) Loosening up tied ends - I think this is a tagline, not a product name

10) Strategy laxative - OK, this is funny but it might not be the mental image I want to give people!

 

OK, that's the list so far. If you have any thoughts on these or can come up with better ones, I'd certainly appreciate it. I'm looking for something that conveys the idea but isn't corporate & boring-"sounding because my people are awesome artists and they don't like 'suit talk'.

PS. I need to get this sorted as soon as possible, so the deadline for suggestions is Friday 3rd September.

Thoughts, suggestions, fabulous names? Leave a comment below. Remember, if you come up with the final name, you get a free consulting session.

And btw, this isn't some scummy fake launch technique, I really am STUCK with this.
