From Side Hustles to Product Launches
As a small business owner for over 20 years, I’ve seen it all—from holding down a corporate job while dreaming of entrepreneurship to designing and selling more than 40 products. Over the last decade, I’ve also been deeply involved in the domain industry. That experience has given me a wide-angle view of just how fast things are changing.
But here’s the truth: not every shiny new tool or trend is worth chasing. At Kaktai, we help you cut through the noise so you can make smarter decisions without the usual headaches.
A Website Boom – But Not All Good
Right now, we’re on the verge of an explosion in website creation. That’s exciting—but it also means we’ll see more low-quality sites and scams. As new domains flood the market, staying sharp matters more than ever.
AI-powered tools and mobile-first platforms are making it easier than ever to launch a site. In fact, building a website now takes minutes, not days.
The Numbers Don’t Lie – New Domains
According to Verisign’s Q2 2024 Domain Name Industry Brief, 5.8 million new domains were registered in just one quarter. That’s about 64,000 every day. But here’s the surprising part: 70% of those domains are undeveloped. Nearly 47,000 domains each day are just sitting there, waiting to become websites.
Much of this growth comes from small businesses. Around 15,000 new ones are started every day—and most will need a site. Today’s tech makes that possible faster than ever, especially with AI helping speed things up.
Mobile Rules the Web
With over 60% of web traffic coming from smartphones, people aren’t looking for complicated sites. They want clean, mobile-friendly pages that just work. The age of overdesigned websites is fading fast.
What’s Next?
The future is all about simplicity and speed. Entrepreneurs and domain owners need easy platforms that let them bring ideas to life with minimal effort. AI is already driving this shift.
Let’s make sure you’re ready for the ride.
