Awesome stuff! Glad to see that we had a handful of very similar ideas.

This sounds awesome, trying it out now.

Is this your start-up? Or simply sharing? I wanna know if I can white-label this for my clients!

Yeah, I realized that, but at the same time I thought maybe showing the younger "fun" side of me would be beneficial. Definitely something to think about... thanks for the input.

Agreed. If you've give up on the idea, why not share the names and what you had planned to do with them?

As others have said, don't expect too much. I did have success selling domains on NamePros, but that was almost a decade ago and truthfully I'm not sure if they're as active anymore. I'm sure you can find other domain communities as well.

Quick tip: Don't just post the domain name. Explain why you bought that domain in the first place -- it tends to get more inquiries in my experience. For example, let's say I wanted to sell the domain "bagfullofshit.com" -- Disregarding the novelty aspect, you could explain that you were planning on starting a service that sends pranks to your friends and that you wouldn't be actually sending bags of shit. It gets them to think.

To be honest, for a couple KB's worth of difference, probably not. But I'd assume it'd be good practice to optimize the best you can regardless.

Buzzwords and click-bait titles are equally infuriating. ahem

Off-topic, but I didn't want to spam you guys with a new thread. Quick question: Is it looked down upon at HN to repost questions on other sites like StackExchange? I like to get as much input as possible from people, but I don't want to get off as being 'spam-y.'

A couple KB shouldn't make much of a difference. If your app explodes in popularity, then yes, you should make every effort to optimize.

Pretty cool that you can do that! Thank you :)

I misused the word "sure-fire," I stand corrected. My philosophy in a sure-fire way of creating a profitable SaaS or even a simple software is to find an inefficiency in the way businesses are run. However, seldom get to hear the needs of small business owners whom most likely do not have the budgets to invest in a new system. It's usually the "big gun" corporations that have the ability to spend sacks of money to fix their inefficiencies.

TL;DR: Small business/startup owners, what is one simple software/service which would seem to be 1) cheap to implement; 2) easy to implement, that you wish you had?

Yo Suhail,

Was MixPanel once an opinion/debate site? I swear the name sounds familiar.
