Upgrading to Joomla - What is a good folder name?

I am running a linking website for games. The original website name was Game Web Links. That is the same url for my site. I was using PHP-NUKE as a website CMS, but it really sucks. I decided to run Joomla on a sub folder on my site, with a seperate database. I plan on eventually copying all those files over, once I modify Joomla to do the same thing as my cheezy phpnuke script. I am still holding onto my previous script and hosting that as the main, because I have modified, and payed for new work on it. When I have time and money, I will modify Joomla to be a mirror image, then overwrite the phpnuke files on the main /httpdocs/ folder.

To make a long story short...

What should I call this sub folder, just in case it is permanent, but an evolved version of my site?

Example: /mysite.com/welcome/ , /mysite.com/evolved/, /mysite.com/advanced/

Those are just examples. What would not sound like a WTF?! name for the sub folder running joomla?

For SEO reasons I would put a keyword that is relevant to your site in the folder name, so it appears in the URL.

For example yoursite.com/gaming (since it's a gaming site you are running).

You shouldn't have problems migrating the site from a sub-folder to root by using Akeeba Backup extension for Joomla. It's very easy to back up a site in a folder and restore it to a different folder (or root) - Akeeba will do all re-mapping auto-magically :)

Good luck!

ok all you freakin' rookies :-) ... from the days of previous DOS (- seem it up!!) there have been specific "contraptions" that made a working laptop or computing device. The printer became used with the aid of fact the dos time era prn: ... the show screen became con: ... after which there have been information that should all have the computing device's output "redirected" from the extremely technique to an extremely device. you need to open a textual content textile record or in basic terms show it in a dos window, or in basic terms deliver it directly to the printer without stops in between via typing "replica filename.txt > prn:" It became an astounding time, and con became in basic terms yet in any different case to assert "to the show screen". for sure a folder won't have the ability to be named the comparable with the aid of fact the device it rather is on. good success!.
