The Smart Ape 🔥 (@the_smart_ape) reportedmillions of companies forget to renew their domain names every year. you can just buy the expired domain someone forgot about and get a premium on it. it’s called drop catching. where to find them discovery + filtering: → expireddomains[.]net → domcop → freshdrop → moonsy auctions + catching: → godaddy auctions → namecheap expired auctions → dynadot closeouts → namejet / snapnames → dropcatch (1,200+ registrars, best catch rate on contested names) the process: domain expires → grace period → “pending delete” → drops. once it’s pending delete (usually ~5 days before the drop) you can place a backorder. if more than one person wants it, it goes to auction. most of these never get listed for sale. catch the ones with real value (traffic, backlinks, brandable names).

MK. | $40K+ Workflow Architect (@realthemk) reportedAn app builder hit $30,000 in monthly recurring revenue in under 4 months by treating short-form marketing like a mathematical assembly line. He interviews hundreds of creators to extract the elite 10% with built-in virality, then uses their top-performing assets to scale paid ad campaigns with predictable results. He recently broke down his exact distribution engine and software deployment pipeline for me, start to finish: Coding & IDE: Cursor Claude Code. He builds his entire client-side user experience inside his IDE by feeding raw Figma mockups and wireframes directly to the AI agent. Average time to build a fully functional frontend interface: 4 to 5 hours. Database & Backend: Supabase cloud hosting. He completely sidesteps complex system operations by using serverless architecture to manage user authentication, relational database logs, and background actions effortlessly. Monetization: Superwall AB Testing RevenueCat. He runs weekly, monthly, annual, and one-time subscription plans, all protected by a strict paywall from day one. Pricing is managed entirely through cloud dashboards, allowing instant layout changes without waiting for App Store approval. Distribution: Vetted UGC creators Meta Ads. He screens 100 creators to find 9 or 10 high-performers, placing them on monthly retainers plus a CPM structure. The moment an organic video hits 50,000 views, it's converted into a paid Meta ad campaign. He tests budgets at $50/day and scales to $100, $200, or $300 as long as ROAS remains above 1. Analytics & Retention: Mixpanel Loops email sequences. Mixpanel maps the entire user onboarding funnel to highlight drop-offs, while Loops fires automated behavioral email campaigns to instantly win back and convert churned users. MVP build time: Roughly 4 to 5 hours to stand up a completed client build. Monthly tool cost: Negligible, just standard SaaS base fees (Cursor, Supabase cloud tier, GoDaddy domain). Scale milestone: Over 100,000 authenticated users, 9,000 paid subscription conversions, and $30,000 MRR within 120 days of deployment. Nobody talks about how mechanical this process actually is once the system is built. The first app is the hardest, overcoming shiny object syndrome and resisting the urge to jump to the next idea. But once you establish a repeatable asset pipeline and see ad fatigue as just another variable to solve, app building feels more like running a small, automated factory than traditional product engineering. Like this post and I'll DM you an ebook you can buy to learn more, I've tracked down performance data on why most developers fail before launching. Most people go too broad and leave massive cash flow on the table. Monthly Revenue Potential (Real micro-SaaS & niche mobile app data): - High-spec hobby/collector utilities (card scanning, value trackers): $75K–$120K/month - Rising health/lifestyle trends (peptide trackers, niche biohacking tools): $30K–$50K/month - Hyper-targeted consumer aggregators (local free item finders): $30K/month - Micro-utility passion tools (specific instrument tone matching): $25K/month - Campus/broad social marketplaces: $0/month (high friction, zero monetization) Here's what most people get wrong: they try to build massive, multi-sided marketplace apps because they "seem ambitious." They spend months gathering 800 non-paying users and wonder why they haven't made a single dollar. The same effort spent building a simple utility for a highly specific niche (like showing a guitarist how to configure their exact amp settings) can unlock thousands in predictable subscription revenue. Same effort, higher intent, 10x the cash flow. The actual framework: - Reverse-engineer your value proposition from the marketing first; plan how to catch a consumer's attention in 3 seconds. - Map frontend layouts in Figma, then feed those wireframes straight to AI agents in your IDE to compile code instantly. - Filter your creator network through rigorous interview steps, running low-budget ads exclusively behind videos with proven organic engagement. - Track onboarding completion with event trackers, and run nonstop paywall and price experiments to maximize LTV. The rising niche wellness and high-spec hobby markets are completely wide open right now. Users are happy to pay premium recurring fees to track, optimize, or value their passions, and AI tools mean you can ship a complete asset in a single weekend. Like this post and I'll DM you an ebook to learn more.

Dustin Hyle (@dustinhyle) reportedThe other day I saw someone posting how Godaddy WordPress hosting has changed and anyone talking crap about it needs to stop repeating stuff from years ago. I am migrating a site off Godaddy today for a client and their backend has broke twice in this process. Same crap, don't believe anything else.

Aaron Reimann (@areimann) reported@craylor GoDaddy hosting is leaps and bounds better than it was a decade ago. The problem is, the hosting might be good, but their support is not great, DNS kind of sucks, their "delegate access" works kind off (support actually told me to just ask the client for their password), etc. I deal with GoDaddy daily and I do not enjoy it.

Ayaan 🐧 (@twtayaan) reportedYou used to pay $200 a year just to put a padlock on your own website. Then Let's Encrypt happened. In the early internet, SSL certificates were controlled by a handful of corporations. Every website had to pay them every single year or visitors would see a scary security warning and leave. DigiCert → $200 a year Comodo → $150 a year GoDaddy → $70 a year They turned basic internet security into a subscription. And millions of small websites simply could not afford it. By 2014 only 30% of the web was encrypted. Not because encryption was hard. Because it had a price tag. Then, in 2015 a group of engineers launched Let's Encrypt. Free SSL certificates for every website on earth. Automated. No credit card. No annual fee. Forever. The certificate industry laughed at them. They stopped laughing fast. One million certificates in the first year. One million every single day by 2018. One billion total by 2020. Ten million every single day today. Let's Encrypt now controls 57% of the entire SSL certificate market on earth. The web went from 30% encrypted to over 80% in under ten years. DigiCert still exists. Comodo still exists. But they lost the internet to a nonprofit that decided security should never have a price tag. The SSL industry spent 20 years building a tollbooth on the web. Let's Encrypt tore it down. For free. Forever.

Hameedah💐🩺 (@Mee_dah19) reported@RIPattermoore @GoDaddy A few design and messaging tweaks could make it feel more like a thriller experience than a standard author website. I'm a designer and would be happy to share some ideas or even help with a redesign if you're interested. Either way, wishing you success with the series.

Diego Gallovich (@reachdiego) reported@GoDaddy - I keep getting a 403 whitescreen when logging in... what ******** is going on?

Nick (@maietta) reportedHoly **** GoDaddy is among the worst companies on the planet. Been trying desperately to get them to fix the issue with a domain name previously owned by another company who in the past, used Office 365. Now that my client owns the domain, we can't seem to get them to remove the domain. Microsoft support has been non-existent as well. They assigned a dude to the case, but then he dropped the ball and won't reply to me.

Zahid (@_zadahmed) reported@Umesh__digital I often find namecheaps email service quite clunky, godaddy uses m365 so a bit better. Not sure about cloudflare but heard good things

Danielle Dyer (@danielle4657) reportedand it's like just thinking about this - how this has effected me having this happen like this because I didn't think I had a neural device placed until these commercials began playing hinting at it one about a migraine medication commercial and the other one with Walter Goggins and godaddy but I had not thought that, suspected that at all and then I got to thinking about it and it's like... you're pretty sure, like 80% sure that you had a neural device placed in Denver, CO in 2014 associated with a FUT strip incision associated with hair transplants and thinking about how this doctor that did it - you find out he's a psychiatrist and then you start thinking back to this - to the owner of that business that you never - ever would have had any suspect prior to learning about how these neural devices work recently I really did not know how the neural devices worked or what they are capable of as I have been swimming in my own chaos even prior to this happening really getting just blightsided by this shortly after this incident had happened in January 2025

BatCAt (@BatcatCA) reportedEvery time I'm forced to interact with GoDaddy, it makes me want to toaster-bath. Honestly, what a piece of **** company.

Mirko Garozzo (@mirkogarozzo) reported@GoDaddy might genuinely have the worst customer service in the history of humanity.

Jamie Zoch (@DotWeekly) reported@_NameOffice Likely search on GoDaddy for the domain, see it and buy with a service they already use and trust.

KATQ Radio (@KatqRadio) reported@GoDaddy @GoDaddyHelp has no problem stealing from its clients. Instead of actually rectifying the situation, they bury it under paperwork, and refuse to help a customer who's been with them since 2015. Before you do any business with them check out the listing on the Better Business Bureau.

Cory Pilger (@cs_pilger) reported@GoDaddy we are about to have huge problems. I received an email yesterday that one of your companies Afternic sold one of my domains and transferred it out of my account. It's my main domain for my business that feeds my family I would NEVER SELL IT. I've now gotten the...

Ivon Huang (@Ivon852) reportedFinally made the switch. Actually, when you buy a domain, you can transfer it to another registrar. This is called a domain transfer. If you feel your current domain registrar is ripping you off, you should jump ship as soon as possible. If you don’t need an all-in-one website-building service, buying a domain from GoDaddy seems very uneconomical. They are just very good at advertising in many countries. Domains from Porkbun and Cloudflare Registrar are much cheaper. My website is built with a JAMstack setup using Hugo SSG and ***. And yet, I renewed my domain for four years, paying around $20 per year for a common .com domain. I honestly can’t believe I stayed on GoDaddy and kept feeding the money machine, even though I wasn’t using their WordPress services at all.

Nick (@maietta) reported@paul_e_jones No, I have zero business with GoDaddy. But I have to deal with them for an issue that they caused through Microsoft office 365's design. The problem is that a domain name that belongs to my client used to belong to a company that used to have a Microsoft office 365 account provided through the vendor. GoDaddy. GoDaddy sells office 365 accounts. What happens is a domain name previously used with Microsoft office 365 but then the account expires and is never renewed because the company that held the domain name went out of business and sold in bankruptcy. Two company transitions later and we acquire the domain. So we go to set up Microsoft office 365 only to be hit with a message that we cannot provision the domain on their platform because of a previous tenant that just doesn't exist anymore in the real world. That business vanished a long time ago.

Sherif Nasr (@sherifnasr73) reported@GoDaddyHelp Hello, I need a refund for order #4115631028. It’s a Microsoft 365 email renewal for 348 AED that I didn’t authorize, never used, and I’m within 30 days. No renewal notice was sent. Please help cancel and refund.

kurku (@sandovin34721) reportedMaybe it can get less noisy and more interesting if one would filter out GoDaddy `this site is for sale` and other unreachable phpmyadmin & dev crap. Fetch music / images from the page, remove porn. And make a live feed from it which you can filter.
