The Startup Domain Name Price Guide allows startups to understand the appropriate budgets required to purchase different types of premium domain names. Entrepreneurs who use Name Ninja’s free domain price guide will avoid getting sticker shock from having unrealistic expectations about the fair market value of today’s most desirable startup domain names.

Toronto, Ontario, July 24, 2017 – How much should startup founders budget to purchase their desired domain name? Name Ninja (http://www.nameninja.com), the Toronto-based domain name brokerage firm that helps companies acquire already-registered domain names, has developed a handy and free guide to the typical price ranges a startup will need to pay for various types of domains.

Presented as an infographic, the Startup Domain Name Price Guide covers different types of domains that are popular with startups such as one-word .com, two-word .com, and invented .com. For each type of domain, Name Ninja’s guide outlines the typical price ranges, from domains that might be unclaimed and available to register for only $10 all the way to extremely popular domains requiring an investment of six-figures or more.

“It’s important for startup founders to have a realistic budget in mind when commencing the naming process and hunt for the matching domain,” said domain name expert and Name Ninja founder Bill Sweetman. “Startups will save themselves a lot of time and stress if they align their name and domain choices with their budget.”

According to domain buyer broker Bill Sweetman, if you’ve got your heart set on a one-word .com domain name, you’re likely going to need to invest at least six-figures. Why? Those types of domains are in short supply and have very high demand. Sweetman should know; his domain buyer brokerage firm receives requests every day from potential clients seeking Name Ninja’s help buying one-word .com and other domains.

International alliances fuel growth and global reach of Toronto-based domain name brokerage firm that acquires difficult-to-obtain domain names for clients.

Toronto, Ontario, May 16, 2017 – Boutique domain name acquisition firm Name Ninja is marking its four-year anniversary with the successful completion of its 200th domain name brokering project. Launched in May of 2013 by domain name expert Bill Sweetman, the Toronto-based domain name brokering firm has grown in size and revenue each year and now serves clients in over 10 countries.

One of the most frustrating challenges faced by entrepreneurs launching a new venture is obtaining their first-choice domain name. It often seems like ‘all the good domains are taken’ because someone else previously registered them. Helping entrepreneurs overcome this obstacle and get their preferred domain name is what Name Ninja specializes in.

In the last 12 months, Name Ninja has grown the size of its international team of domain name acquisition specialists and established strategic alliances with business partners in Europe and Asia.

Domain name expert Bill Sweetman made international headlines this month when he graciously rescued the expired domain name OliverStone.com and returned it – at no charge – to the Oscar-winning filmmaker.

As first reported in The Hollywood Reporter on December 1, 2016, Name Ninja President Bill Sweetman noticed that Oliver Stone’s domain name had expired due to human error. Sweetman, who is also a lifelong film fanatic, quickly put in place a plan to rescue the domain and return it to the filmmaker. In doing so, Sweetman helped restore Mr. Stone’s Website, which was taken offline for five weeks due to the domain expiring.

“I've long admired Oliver Stone's work, especially his fearlessness at tackling controversial subjects,” said Sweetman in his personal blog post about the rescue of OliverStone.com, adding “I didn't want this 19 year-old domain to fall into the wrong hands…”

Bill Sweetman has rescued domain names for numerous artists, pop culture icons, and organizations he admires, including Freddie Mercury, Phil Collins, 'Darth Vader' (Lucasfilm), and The Salvation Army.

OliverStone.com is now safely in the filmmaker’s hands, and Mr. Stone’s “The Oliver Stone Experience” Website is back online.
