Our Thinking
Michael Santiago’s perspective on DIJ.com, PremiumBrands and building online businesses.
I’m Michael Santiago, founder of PremiumBrands.com. I use PremiumBrands to present selected domains with enough context for a buyer to consider what they could build. DIJ.com is one of those names.
A practical view of building
DIJ is an open starting point. I am interested in what a buyer would put beside those letters: a useful product, a body of design work or a publication with a point of view. The address gives that work a place to be found.
I believe AI is making it more accessible to prototype software, build websites and explore online businesses. More people can now try an idea before committing to a full build. Choosing a clear identity still deserves attention, alongside the work needed to make the business useful.
Experience behind the approach
I acquired i-Newswire.com in 2007 and upgraded the business to Newswire.com in 2015. That experience is part of why I consider a domain in the context of the business using it. A name can help explain an offer, while the product, service and customer relationships still need to be built.
OnlineBusiness.com is my strategy and development studio supporting these presentations. PremiumBrands is where the domain acquisition conversation starts. You can also find my professional background on LinkedIn.
For DIJ.com, the offer remains the domain itself. The ideas are possible directions for a future owner. If the name fits what you want to do, get in touch through the inquiry page.
