Website Domains
I always see people complain about pastebin url pricing being crazy insane, but you know what's actually insane? website domain pricing. Actual website domains, not custom pastebins site urls. they go for stupid amounts of money and god knows why.
it's actually stupid. I cant believe people willingly pay thousands for a single website url- one that technically you don't even own anyway.
angel.com is a domain I could only imagine owning in my dreams. I did some research on it and it was bought for 2 million. what. as much as angel.com sounds good I think I'd rather buy a house with that much money.
I've been wanting to ask my cousins (practically siblings to me, we're very close.) for a real website domain for my birthday this year. It's coming up soon! December 8th, a little over 2 months away. A real website domain is something I've wanted for a long time. Something that isn't tied to WordPress, neocities, GitHub pages, etc.
But here's the question- which one?
It's like an endless list of domains and an endless list of price tags (most being insanely absurd...) I'd like one with my username incorporated, Cyberistic, but which TDL?
My eyes are mainly on .computer, .lol, or .cloud. I feel like "cyberistic.computer" is a pretty big URL. cyberistic.lol is the shortest. But cyberistic.cloud is cheaper by $5 (via porkbun) but is it better?
besides Cyberistic, what if I just chose something else? i've been having [word]angel as a lot of my usernames online when "Cyberistic" or Cyberistics" aren't available. I mean, I've found one that's only like $21 but I don't think it fits with me all that well ahahaha... it's very kangel themed though! and cute! totally great for just a static website with some info about me.
Not really a friend, I've only talked to this person like once, but I've seen someone with their own kangel-inspired website with the .lol TLD. kangel & Needy Streamer Overload is pretty cool when you look beyond the annoying ass fandom. I have this unfinished website concept that was nso styled which I drew art and spent like 3 weeks on (LONG story. don't ask..) which I may re-use.
Ah, decisions decisions... I also have to pray that nobody snipes the domain before my birthday comes up LOL. please god I just want this one website domain that's (sort of) cheap.
