What It’s About
Is a $2,000 domain ever worth it for a brand-new project?
Notes from Chris
Episode 3297
Domain names cost around $10 … at least, if they don’t already belong to someone. But what if you have your eye on the dot-com that’s perfect for you, and it’s currently for sale? How much is too much to pay?
“I’ve been listening to the show and I’m finally ready to take action. This is going to be a year of experimentation for me. My first Side hustle idea involves creating a YouTube channel and a Web site centered around a topic that I’m very passionate about starting out. I’m going to offer a course and I will also include affiliate links on my Web site. Here’s my dilemma. The dot com domain that I want is available, but it’s $2000. Do you suggest paying that much for a domain name? Or should I opt for the dot net or dot org extension instead? I’ve read the dot com extensions rank higher in Google. But is it really that important? Can’t wait to hear from you. And thanks.”
