When do you buy the domain?

after I discussed it with close friends (#realitycheck) otherwise I would end up with a ton of domains :D

The same as you ,indeed many ideas seem it's wonderful.It tells me that is a mistake when making those out . Maybe we should cool down~ and think about it times .

always have a stash of names in had as you work on your idea, if it a great idea and you can't shake it off go check which one is available and claim it

First decide if you intend to pursue the online business idea. Before purchasing the domain name it makes sense to examine the domain names of rivals and industry leaders. Then take note of any keywords they use as well as their domain extension.

I buy it well before I start coding 🙂

Have the solid idea first before buying.

If it's relatively inexpensive, I just buy the domain. Helps motivate me get the project started even if it doesn't workout in the end.

Buy first, set to auto-renew after (and if) the project is done 😁

Out of curiosity, how many domains do you all own?

Tricky! I'd say after the product has started to take shape, I went through 3 domains before settling on one.
