The Biggest Mistake New Tech Businesses Make When Choosing a Domain Name

As the CEO of Bluefrog.ai and founder of JeffBeasley.com and AZ.Coupons, I’ve seen the same mistake repeatedly...

New tech companies often select domains that do not match the long-term direction of their business.

When the name is vague, trendy, overly clever, or hard to spell, it eventually damages branding, SEO performance, and investor perception.

A strong domain is simple, memorable, and aligned with the future vision of the company.
