Your domain name is TOO expensive 😭 Meanwhile:

We just bought corgi dot com for $118k. I remember one of the first things we did when @emily_yuan_ and I started this company (back in 2024) was getting corgi dot insure on Porkbun for $10.79. Since then, we've grown from a small team trying to figure things out to now thousands of technology companies trusting us with their insurance needs. Insurance is fundamentally about trust. When something goes wrong (which tends to happen in the startup world), you need to know someone has your back. That's why we exist. A 5-letter domain is worth it for the long-term. We just made it a lot easier for you to remember us. If you're a startup looking for insurance, you know where to find us. corgi dot com

Are you a domain merchant or a domain investor? This is the single most important question you will ask or answer in 2026. Most people never knew there was a difference until right now. That misunderstanding has cost you more money than bad domains ever did. Read this today!

Happy 30th Anniversary, Domain King!! "Twas the day after Christmas, when all through the house, not a creature was stirring, except my Microsoft mouse” And that was the exact moment this journey began. I had no idea that what I did that day 30 years ago today, would change my life forever. Unlike oil wells that are dangerous, expensive, and risky. Unlike real estate that comes with a bag full of problems. Unlike any other business I’ve ever seen. Domain names were the greatest economic equalizer of my lifetime. And yes, it was a unique moment in time and I recognized it. The great race was on. I didn’t even know I was in it… until I was. As I begin my 30th anniversary year, this is the case I’ll keep making. For the exceptional value of domain names, and for the life they made possible for me. Because nobody else is going to tell this story the right way. What I’ve done with domains is the equivalent of owning 1,000 apartments for 30 years. Collecting over $100 million in rent, while still owning buildings worth hundreds of millions more. Here’s the difference. His overhead runs into the millions. Taxes. Insurance. Mortgages. Management. Maintenance. Mine is about $75,000 a year in renewals. I built this with zero capital investment. No employees. No debt. No payroll. I built the empire of a mega landlord… without tenants, toilets, taxes, mortgages, or 3 a.m. phone calls. I did it in my fucking bathrobe. His trash removal bill is higher than my entire overhead. And here’s the twist: I eventually parlayed a lot of those dollars into real estate myself. So I know exactly what it takes on both sides of the fence. Which brings me to the part nobody ever factors in. I’m an efficiency expert. My phone barely rings. I don’t leave my front door. When I wake up, I don’t report to a job. I decide whether I’m building my next revenue stream, taking a vacation, or doing absolutely nothing at all. That freedom is priceless. Compare that to the real landlord’s reality: 3 a.m. calls. Burst pipes. No heat. Broken locks. Emergencies. Tenant damage. Ruined carpets. Trashed kitchens and baths. Appliance churn. Endless replacements. Vacancies. Evictions. Legal fees. Court battles. Rising property taxes and insurance every single year. Management fees skimmed off the top… and the headaches still find you. I rest my case, unapologetically! That isn’t a business model taught in classrooms by unqualified professors. It’s learned by those who survive long enough to see the same historical patterns repeat over and over again. 30 years in, I wouldn’t trade this business for any other on earth. 30 years. No days off. No vacations from thinking. No silence from my inbox. No shortcuts. No safety net. Just instinct, discipline, and showing up every single day. I didn’t inherit this. I didn’t raise capital. I didn’t build a team. I outthought it, outwaited it, and outlasted everyone else. 30 years later, I’m still standing and the empire is still mine, intact, and built to last! I didn’t anoint myself the Domain King. I didn’t even own DomainKing.com until everyone else started calling me that. Once the name stuck, I branded it, ran with it, and never looked back.
