The Internet is on the verge of a major technological leap forward. Experts are still debating exactly what the next iteration of the web will look like, and there's still no consensus on whether it should be called "web 3.0," the more modern "web3," or the ultra minimalist "W3." But we know for sure that the future will be built on blockchain and AI, which will bust the monopoly "big tech" currently has on data. And things like crypto, NFTs, virtual reality, augmented reality, the metaverse? They're all going to have a role to play.

Of course, any time you break up a monopoly on anything, it's going to create a wave of new business opportunities. But in the case of web 3.0 it's going to be more like a tsunami. Right now you can run your whole life on the Internet. You can buy groceries, order a cab, find a date , watch movies, talk to friends, and earn a degree. But every single byte of your data flows through a major international corporation, whether it's Google, Meta, Amazon, Uber, or somebody else. The next era of the Internet won't be like that. Blockchain and AI will unlock a world of new possibilities, a world where we don't need giant corporations to act as intermediaries for online interactions. If you're a forward-thinking entrepreneur and you want to be a part of this brave new world, now is the time to start laying the groundwork.

As you probably know, the first step in any business venture is creating a brand and establishing your domain name. And when it comes to building a brand and registering a domain name, even after all these years there is still no better place to do it than GoDaddy.

Why your domain matters.

Choosing a domain name for your business venture requires a lot of thought and consideration. Your domain name is your identity on the web, the backbone of your digital presence. It's the number one thing you want visitors to remember. In some cases, your domain name may even be synonymous. So you want to make sure you choose a domain name that not only fits your business, but is also easy to find and promote.

As a general rule of thumb, every business should choose a domain name that is easy to remember and easy to type, with no confusing hyphens, numbers, or unique spellings that may cause confusion. Your domain name should also use keywords that people will use in search engines, so that it's easier to find you. And it is important to do some research to make sure your domain name isn't already trademarked, and that you can use the same name for all your social media handles.

Picking a domain name for a tech venture has its own unique set of challenges. Right now, your immediate goal may be to create an online marketplace for custom NFTs of Goldendoodles. But that's only because, right now, the primary application of blockchain-based NFT technology is collectible digital art. In the very near future NFTs may be used to issue tickets for concerts, providing owners custom artwork and memorabilia in addition to entry to the venue. You don't want to limit what your NFT business can do by choosing a domain name like goldendoodlenfts.net. You want to choose a domain name that allows for growth.

The same rule goes for any web 3.0 business. Whether you're into NFTs, crypto, or augmented reality, there's no way to predict exactly where you will be in 10 years. But whatever kind of tech business you're starting, there's no better place to register a domain name than GoDaddy.

Why GoDaddy.

GoDaddy has been around since 1997, and they are still the world's biggest domain registrar for a reason. They have extremely affordable prices, a powerful search engine to search the web's enormous pool of names, a huge selection of extensions, free privacy and piracy protection, and industry leading tools and support.

Need some tips about choosing the right domain name for your brand? GoDaddy has a library of articles and video tutorials. Want to speak to an actual human expert? With GoDaddy you get that, too, plus state of the art security that keeps your personal information private and protects your domain name from domain hijackers and accidental expirations and transfers.
