2025: The year I stop buying & hoarding domains, (maybe)
I’ve kicked off 2025 by diving into The Life-Changing Magic of Tidying Up by Marie Kondo. While the book focuses on physical spaces, it hit me that my digital life could use a serious cleanup, starting with my collection of domain names.
Yes, I’m one of those people. I have an idea, and think, “This could be big!” and buy the domain. I was sure "dogglebox" was a grrrreat idea, who wouldn't want to visit a website about dogs watching TV.
So, here’s the game plan:
Step 1: Domain Audit
Instead of just holding onto these domains indefinitely “just in case”, I’m asking myself: Do I have a real plan for this domain? Does it solve a problem? Could this actually turn into something useful and valuable? If the answer is “probably not,” it’s time to let go.
Step 2: Website-a-Week Challenge
For the domains that make the cut, I’m committing to and challenging myself to building one website a week in 2025. Yep, that's right, I am going to build 52 websites, by the way I just registered 52websites.com Whether it’s a side hustle, a passion project, or just a fun experiment, it’s time to put these domains to work—or say goodbye for good.
Is this the most productive use of my time, or just a creative way to avoid letting these domains expire and fall into the hands of domain squatters?
Either way, I will avoid awkward questions from my wife asking what is this domain for, I will certainly save some money, my hosting account will be a lot cleaner and I will learn a few things along the way.
