Looking at the SERP for "experiment", I actually don't see them having much trouble ranking for it after a bit of time has gone by. Most of the results are informative and they're spread across different sectors (There i

Awesome, thanks for the reply. Do you know of any way to find out if they're brokering the domain for someone or selling it themselves?

Rank high for what? The term Ryza? It's easy to rank high for a made up word, but if you're ever in debate over whether to use a domain with ambiguous spelling or a standard word...go with the standard word.

I'm actually just about to go through the process of acquiring a somewhat recently dropped domain from BuyDomains.com for my new project. The current asking price for the domain is around $4,000 on their site. Anyone worked with them b

I think the term "Single Page App" is a bit deceiving in usage sometimes. My idea of a SPA is one where the client downloads the bulk of the application code on first page load, and then only talks to the server with data-based AP

Any sort of standard server side rendering, or possibly a front end framework that can be rendered server side as well (I think React can do that, same as Backbone). Basically, SPA frameworks are useful when you are working with lots and lo

A lot of people seem to think that Single Page App frameworks like Angular/Ember are suitable for use on the public facing client side. I've always believed that SPAs are meant to be behind a login, where you don't have to al

You realize that the look and feel of iOS6 that you like isn't ever coming back right? I've had friends refuse to update because of that exact reasoning as if they think somehow their defiance will change the course Apple is takin

About as good as you're going to get is making something from Bootstrap. The reason there aren't a lot of free Dashboard templates is because they take a lot of work to create so the creators expect compensation for their effort.

That number is at 13% probably because of people using devices that can't actually run iOS7, not because they choose not to. iOS8 won't change that.

Per your logic, we should abandon heart transplant surgeries as soon as one doesn't go as planned. Anecdotal evidence against the efficacy of any medical treatment is not reason enough to abandon it.

You guys absolutely need screenshots on that site. How can you be selling a dashboard solution without a single image of what that looks like? That should be the first thing I see when I load your site, not a bunch of text.

Generally, you'll end up connected to similar guys in your field after you've been running a startup for a while. You can reach out to them and say that you're offering XYZ consulting services in an effort to pseudo-bootstrap

If you can run a startup, you're employable as a consultant to at least enough people to make ends meet. Reach out to your personal networks and try and stem the tide a bit. We've all been there at some point in our life, there&#x

Yeah but simply mentioning his association with a project will lead to 10s if not 100s of thousands of users basically instantly. They're just not the kind of users who you can monetize easily.
