My journey into domain investing started with a simple belief:

the right name can change the direction of a business.


Today, I curate a growing portfolio of domains built for brands, creators, and entrepreneurs who want more than just a URL — they want a digital identity with purpose.


I focus on names that are meaningful, memorable, and future-ready. Every domain is selected for its potential to become a brand, a platform, or even a movement.


Domains are more than assets to me.

They are starting points — shaping how a brand is seen, how it communicates, and how it evolves.

The Advantage of Owning the Whole Set

iMariaPa — Where Digital Identity Begins

Domain bundles give a business room to grow.


Instead of relying on a single name, a bundle lets you test different audiences, campaigns, or markets — and switch instantly when one direction performs better than another.


Bundles protect your brand, expand your reach, and give you flexibility that a single domain simply can’t offer.

Domain bundles give a business room to grow.


Instead of relying on a single name, a bundle lets you test different audiences, campaigns, or markets — and switch instantly when one direction performs better than another.


Bundles protect your brand, expand your reach, and give you flexibility that a single domain simply can’t offer.


Each domain can be acquired individually, but owning the full set provides something more valuable:

options, resilience, and long-term control as your business evolves.

From a Small Idea to..Facebook case

Every business starts small.

What separates the ones that scale from the ones that struggle is how early they protect their identity.

Facebook is a powerful reminder of this.

It Didn’t Start as a Billion-Dollar Business

In 2004, Facebook launched as TheFacebook on thefacebook.com.

No global reach. No massive funding. Just an idea and a name.

But even then, the name mattered.

It described what the product was — and what it could become.

That early clarity became a starting point.

One Domain Change That, Changed Everything.

In 2005, Facebook bought facebook.com for about $200,000.

At the time, that was a serious decision for a young company.

But the impact was enormous:

  • shorter
  • cleaner
  • easier to remember
  • instantly more authoritative

That single move helped position Facebook as the default social platform — not just another website.

When Scale Turns Names into Infrastructure

Years later, Facebook acquired fb.com for $8.5 million.

Not for marketing.

For identity infrastructure.

Short domains reduce friction, prevent confusion, and simplify systems at scale.

At this level, names are no longer branding — they are operational assets.

Monetization Followed Identity

Facebook’s real financial success came later: advertising, data systems, global expansion.

But all of that growth rested on a foundation built early — clear, protected digital identity.

Names came first.

Revenue followed.

Meta: The Cost of Owning the Next Identity

In 2021, Facebook became Meta.

To secure the new name, the company reportedly spent around $60 million on name rights and related assets.

That number matters.

It shows what happens when identity is secured late instead of early.

A Small Failure That Proves the Point: O.co

Not every domain move succeeds.

Overstock bought O.co for about $350,000, hoping for simplicity.

Instead, customers were confused. The brand stepped back.

The lesson is clear:

Short alone isn’t enough.

Clarity and context matter.

This is why having options — not forcing a single name — is so important.

Why Bundles Change the Game

Owning just one domain solves today’s problem.

Owning a bundle prepares you for tomorrow.

A bundle:

  • protects your brand from confusion
  • blocks competitors and imitators
  • allows expansion into apps, shops, platforms, and campaigns
  • avoids expensive re-purchases later

Think of names like:

  • yourallways.com
  • yourallways.co
  • yourallways.app
  • yourallways.shop

Secured early, they cost little.

Secured late, they can cost millions — or be impossible to recover.

The Takeaway

Facebook’s journey proves one thing:

Digital identity doesn’t begin with money.

It begins with a name.

Domains are not just URLs.

They are starting points — shaping how a brand is seen, trusted, and allowed to grow.

Thinking in bundles instead of single domains isn’t extra.

It’s strategic.

And in the long run, it’s often the difference between building freely — or paying heavily to fix what should have been protected from the start.

Zoom: Why Not Owning the Main Name Early Can Cost Million

Some companies start with the right idea — but not the right domain.

Zoom is a perfect example.

The Beginning: Zoom.us (Not Zoom.com)

Zoom launched using zoom.us. Why?

Because zoom.com was already owned.

At the beginning, this wasn’t a big problem:

  • the product was new
  • growth was controlled
  • users learned the link

But as Zoom exploded globally, something became clear: The name and the domain no longer matched the scale of the business.

People searched for zoom.com — not zoom.us.

Growth Turned the Domain Into a Problem

As Zoom became a default communication tool, the drawbacks grew:

  • users mistyped the address
  • phishing and confusion increased
  • branding felt incomplete
  • trust and security risks appeared

A short, universal name mattered more than ever.

The Fix: Buying Zoom.com Later

Zoom eventually acquired zoom.com — reportedly for millions of dollars.

This wasn’t branding luxury.

It was damage control and future-proofing.

The upgrade delivered immediate benefits:

  • clearer brand ownership
  • reduced confusion
  • improved security perception
  • global credibility

But it came late — and therefore expensive.

What This Teaches (Very Clearly)

Zoom’s journey shows a truth many businesses ignore:

If you don’t secure your core name early, you may be forced to buy it later — at scale pricing. 

What costs thousands early can cost millions later.

Why Bundles Solve This Problem

Imagine if Zoom had owned early:

  • zoom.com
  • zoom.us
  • zoom.app
  • zoom.me
  • zoom.online

There would have been:

  • no confusion
  • no urgency
  • no forced buyback
  • no security gaps

This is exactly why bundle thinking matters.
