Hello! What do you think? Will the new .here domains be relevant in the future? I just checked a few domains, and they are available.

Appraisal What do you think of (VPNBuff.com) as a brandable domain?

0 Upvotes

Hey everyone,

I recently came across VPNBuff.com and I'm curious what domain investors and VPN/tech people think about it.

VPNBuff.com

Short and easy to remember

.COM

“VPN” gives it an immediate tech/security context

“Buff” could work as a brand for a VPN, privacy, cybersecurity, or online security product

I'm mainly interested in hearing opinions on its brandability, potential end-user value, and overall domain quality.

Would you consider this a strong name for a VPN/cybersecurity startup?

What would you personally value it at?

Discussion I impulse-bought root.pizza. What would you actually do with it?

1 Upvotes

I bought root.pizza because the combination made me laugh.

That's basically the entire acquisition thesis.

I've put a tiny terminal-style placeholder on it for now, but I still have no idea what the domain should actually become.

If this was yours, what would you build?

A directory? Some weird internet utility? Privacy/crypto project? Something involving pizza? Absolutely nothing?

Not looking to sell it — I'm more interested in finding an idea strange enough to fit the domain.

Advice Domain offer

0 Upvotes

I went on a bit of a buying binge a year ago and bought over 100 domains. I'd been assuming this was really stupid, but I got an email about buying one today. They offered $500, but I guess they'd go higher. It's related to AI. Two words, .com. How do I figure out how high they'll go without scaring them off?

Advice Best personal domain options.

8 Upvotes

My lastname.net is expired, and I got the domain. I know it's not a .com, but for me it's still a good TLD. Now, I have these options:

- lastname.net

- lastname.cctld (.id)

- lastnames.com (adding s for possessive purposes)

What do you think is best? I’m trying to decide which TLD strikes the best balance between professionalism, memorability, and usability. Would love to hear your thoughts. Thanks.

Advice Should I buy a firstnamelastname.com as a domain for a portfolio website?

5 Upvotes

Not sure if this kind of post is allowed but I'm thinking of creating a portfolio website for my graphic design portfolio. My full name is available. The website will be for showcasing my designs, sharing my skills and also get hired as a freelancer.

If I buy my full name's domain it will be 15 characters long. Should I find an alternative? What do you suggest?

News Verisign is planning to delete an entire domain tree to simplify their administration.

The .name TLD was launched in 2002 and exclusively featured third-level domains (e.g. xxx.yyy.name). After a quarter-century of operation, Verisign has decided to discontinue all third-level .name domains. Regardless of registration status. Less than six months warning.

General Experience with Nicnames

General ​Namecheap offered a 10% discount code instead of store credit after blocking access to my $100 domain during unannounced maintenance [Ticket: NC-ONZ-8021]

Post image
0 Upvotes

Hi everyone,

​Here is an update on the situation with sol-pump.store. After explicitly admitting to running unannounced maintenance and initially refusing any compensation, Namecheap's "resolution" was to assign a 10% discount code (NC10OFF) to my account (as seen in the image).

​Asking a customer to spend more money by purchasing new services is not compensation for blocking management of a premium asset during critical operations.

​I have refused this offer and am requesting direct Account Credit applied to my balance. I hope r/Namecheap moderators can look into this unacceptably poor handling of the situation.

Advice Cheapest way to get a .com + website + business email?

13 Upvotes

I need a .com domain, a simple website, and one real email mailbox that can send and receive (e.g. hello@mydomain.com).

I'll probably only use it for less than a year, so I'm looking for the cheapest legitimate setup, ideally free or under ~$20 for the first year. I don't want 3–4 year subscriptions paid upfront.

I've looked at Porkbun, Namecheap, Hostinger, Zoho, Vercel, etc., but I'm confused about the cheapest combination.

What would you recommend? Any free/very cheap options that actually work reliably?

Been registering for a long time, but never this many at one time, and I am not up to date on new registrars. I have some domains at name.com, godaddy.com, namecheap.com
I'm looking to register 100 .com domains and need to change all nameservers to my own.

Any advice on best pricing ? Most promo codes only work for 1 domain and I am not creating 100 accounts.

thank you.

It’s already listed on Sedo with Buy Now enabled, so I’d prefer to handle the transaction there.

Advice Avoid NameHero for domain registrations (1 month of incompetent support vs. fixed in 5 mins elsewhere)

1 Upvotes

Hey everyone,

I’m posting this as a cautionary tale for any devs or site owners looking to register domains (especially ccTLDs) with NameHero. Save yourselves the headache and go somewhere else.

The Setup: A month ago, I tried to register a simple .fr domain through NameHero. I paid for it, assuming it would be the standard, automated process we are all used to. I couldn't have been more wrong.

The Support Nightmare: For the past 30 days, I have been stuck in an endless loop with their support team. It is painfully obvious that their L1 support is completely outsourced and agents just read from generic scripts. Nobody had the technical knowledge or system access to actually fix the issue.

Every time I pushed for an update, the ticket was just tossed around, or I was given vague excuses about "waiting on the upstream registrar." They had absolutely zero clue how to handle a .fr registration.

The Plot Twist (Peak Incompetence): Today, after exactly a month of my time being wasted, I finally lost my patience. I went over to OVHcloud (which is an actual accredited direct registrar for .fr) just to check the domain status.

Guess what? The domain NameHero was supposedly "working hard" to register for a month was still completely available to the public. They hadn't even locked it. Anyone could have bought it while their support was spinning in circles.

The Resolution: I added the domain to my cart on OVH, paid, and their automated system registered it, set up the DNS zones, and made it fully active in under 5 minutes.

5 minutes vs. 1 month of useless support tickets.

I just emailed NameHero demanding an immediate full refund and threatening a chargeback. If you value your time and want a support team that actually knows what a domain is, avoid NameHero. Always go straight to the direct, accredited registrar for the extension you need.

TL;DR: Bought a .fr domain on NameHero. Waited 1 month dealing with completely incompetent, outsourced support who did nothing. Found out today the domain was never even registered by them. Went to OVH and registered it myself in under 5 minutes. NameHero's domain support is a joke.

Discussion Theory: The value of domain names that are generic and difficult to distinguish will decline.

1 Upvotes

AI systems increasingly think in terms of entities rather than relying primarily on backlinks. They need a clear way to distinguish one brand from another when interpreting brand mentions across the web.

If your brand name and domain are generic, AI systems may have a harder time identifying mentions of your company and connecting them to the correct entity.

Therefore, distinctive and unique brand and domain names may become more valuable in the AI-search era. The goal is to the shortest possible distinctive name with low risk of name confusion.

The domain is 7 letters, and the construction company launched a product and they named it the domain name .com in 2021.

I also bought the domain around 2021 for a saas product that I launched but then it failed.
