Here and on [website name]

Hello,

Which of the following is correct? (In this context, I am posting on Tumblr)

1. I finally got my favorite username on Tumblr and Facebook.
2. I finally got my favorite username here and on Facebook.
3. I finally got my favorite username on both here and Facebook.
4. I finally got my favorite username on here and Facebook.

Thanks.

(1) and (2) are correct English. I don't like the combination "on here" in (3) and (4). In that vein you can say: I finally got my favorite username both here and on Facebook.

  • (1) and (2) are correct English.
  • I don't like the combination "on here" in (3) and (4).
  • In that vein you can say: I finally got my favorite username both here and on Facebook.
  • You can also say: I finally got my favorite username on both Tumblr and Facebook.
  • The word "both", however you include it, probably helps the sentence.
