    Merging DN.ca with NamePros?

    Frank, you have to ask yourself, what would be the benefit? People looking for a dedicated Canadian domain community find you anyway. People that aren't interested in the .CA market aren't going to participate. All people still need to meet CIRA requirements, whether DN.ca runs on its own two...

    I turned down a 1.4 million dollar SALE not OFFER!

    One hundred and one. Like what, is he expecting to close at $100? 😂

    Not to mention that just because you raise any amount of money, doesn't mean the startup will become a unicorn. Or anything at all.

    I turned down a 1.4 million dollar SALE not OFFER!

    Now that I think about it, there has been a rise in posts like these as of late, designed to stimulate PR, build cheap following and attract real offers. It's almost like a trend. LinkedIn, X — all turned into a landfill of spam posts. Someone who has weight on X should ask him to tell the...

    Kill me now. 🤦‍♂️ Companies in AI space (or any space, but AI especially) don't win based on domains they run on, they win based on killer functionality and performance. ChatGPT and Perplexity are both terrible names, but they are driving the industry. I don't believe this for a second.

    TBR Drop - Oct 22, 2025

    I don't understand the usage nor valuation of domains like i1.ca (when a mix of letters and numbers is present) In spite of this being a 2-character name, which probably adds value by default, can someone explain how to look at this one: is it going to be considered one of the hot picks or it's...

    MEET Domain Meets & Events

    Hey! I saw this way too late. I was at a work event all day, and it turned too difficult for me to get out during the day. Today my window of opportunity is probably way too small before I have to get back home, but I am really looking forward to an event that will bring a good chunk of DN...

    Luxury.xyz hits the drop

    I've always felt like getting into domains that have $500+ renewal fees is a road to certain bankruptcy.

    MEET Domain Meets & Events

    OK, so the potential gang so far looks this way: @Artashes @BillSweetman I am going to bump the post mid next week to see if there is more action.

    MEET Domain Meets & Events

    Your understanding is correct. Fantastic guy, but I also don't know what his latest news are. His LinkedIn may not be up to date.

    MEET Domain Meets & Events

    I am going to be in Ottawa for an event, with an availability to meet: October 16: morning/afternoon/evening October 17: morning/afternoon I don't know the town well, but it'd be fun if some of us were able to get together, whether for a drink, coffee or food.

    TBR Drop - Oct 15, 2025

    I neither disagree nor agree. If you start diluting it with secondary keywords Brave + Word, you automatically lose all its value. I see Brave work exceptionally well on its own, but it will have to be a spin off company/program or a new startup that wants to run under a strong powerful word...

    Hands down, Brave is the best domain on the list so far.

    @MapleDots That’s very kind, thank you. I was planning a new section specifically dedicated to Canadian web hosting. I will find a way to link back from it in support. ;)
