+ V2 of BeachfrontDigital is live!
+
+Abstract
+
+ Oh snap, that new new is launched dude!
+
+Body
+
+ As I'm writing this, I just remembered that I planned to launch V2 at
+ the end of April. I did it!
+

+
+ Please give it an upvote on ProductHunt[1]!
+
+ Over the past 24 hours, I've been taking in early feedback ranging
+ from UI, UX, and backend issues. As you can imagine, there's still a
+ lot to do.
+
+ Here's a list of what you can currently do as a user:
+
+ - import/export domains (a template is provided[2] for importing).
+ - add domains and registrar/expiration info will automatically get
+ added (in most cases)
+ - add wishlist domains
+
+ Not a huge list but I think the main draw will be the personal
+ analytics. To my knowledge, no other registrar does this and they
+ *certainly* don't allow you to see the domains you have registered
+ elsewhere. Here is what you can expect to see after adding domains:
+
+ ๐Ÿ“ธ[Analytical shot of BeachfrontDigital][IMG3]
+
+ - a conversational readout of your domain portfolio
+ - total number of domains
+ - number of domains renewing this month
+ - number of domains renewing this year
+ - number of domains renewing next year
+ - total number of TLDs (the text after the period in URLs, `.com`,
+ `.net`, `.space`, &c)
+ - total number of registrars (the companies you buy your
+ domains from)
+ - your favorite registrar
+ - your favorite TLD
+ - total amount of money you're spending annually to renew
+ your domains
+ - your cheapest domain
+ - your most expensive domain
+
+ ๐Ÿ“ธ[Another analytical shot of BeachfrontDigital][IMG4]
+
+ You can also see this data in chart form, which is arguably *much*
+ more impressive-looking. Currently, the visual data displays:
+
+ - the number of domain renewals occurring per month
+ - the amount of money you're paying per month
+ - the amount of money you pay each registrar per year
+ - the number of domains you've registered per registrar
+ - the amount of domains you own per TLD
+
+ Those screenshots above are from my own domain portfolio and I can
+ gleam some interesting information from the dataโ€ฆ
+
+ - I already knew this, but most of my domains come from Tucows, the
+ parent company of Hover.
+ - Three times a year, I seem to get a burst of inspiration and buy
+ domain names. Also, I need to check what month it is before buying
+ something extravagant.
+ - My favorite TLDs are `.online` and `.com` (my first domain name was
+ `pw-software.com` and it's still live to this day).
+
+ Anyhoo, all this to say that V2 of BeachfrontDigital is live and
+ available at beachfront.digital[3]. Check it out and let me know what
+ you think! ๐Ÿ•ธ
