This post is super relatable! I have been down the "let's buy this domain" rabbit hole and hindsight is always 20/20. Great tips!

Another idea you can do is to host your projects on subdomains. So if you get a kickass domain name, you can just have project1.example.com, project2.example.com and reap the benefits of having a domain that is categorized as an independent website by search engines (if you want it to, of course).

Glad you liked it!

Yeah, subdomains can definitely fill the need there - and you can always split them off later if a side project takes off!
