Founder Math: $30,000 on a domain name = “Way too risky.” $30,000 on Facebook ads that convert nobody = “We're gathering valuable data.”

Founder Math: Raises $2M at a $20M valuation with $0 revenue. Someone asking $200K for the matching .com? “That valuation is completely detached from reality.”

You can spend $100K convincing people you're a serious company. Or you can start with a domain that doesn't make them question it.

Buying a domain should take 30 seconds. Some registrars have turned it into a hostage negotiation with 14 upsells.

What’s the greatest company name of all time? Not the biggest company. Not the most valuable brand. Just the best name.

Domain investing is like playing the lottery, except you get to renew your losing tickets every year and call it a long-term strategy.

Founder question: before you lock a name, have you Googled it with "scam" or "reviews" after it? If page one is complaints about a company with a similar name, your customers will find that too. Takes 30 seconds. What did yours turn up?

The 5 stages of naming a startup: Find the perfect name. Fall in love with it. Discover the .com is taken. Convince yourself the .io is better. Eventually buy the .com.
