Like in the real world the worldwide web is lacking space. The population growth has taken its biggest growth. The planet is too crowded, but with the wars, hacks, less people being born, the planet has a chance to survive compared to the web.
A few years ago the first voices started screaming about to much domain names being claimed. Now there is lack of space, mostly because people buy domain and don’t use it, forget about it or redirect to their website on another domain. Cleaning up this mess will be a big problem, because not all the old domains can be used anymore because of competition, strange use, and other problems.
The big companies see market in this and start giving space away too email users to build their website on their domain. The space is limited, and the possibilities are limited but growing. It’s still a try-out, but something to watch.
There are advantages and disadvantages in the use of web spaces with big companies. The advantages are:
I can build a website at the moment for free
I can built my website myself
It’s protected by the big companies
The developing team and brainstorming teams of the big companies are still interested in it.
The disadvantages are:
The space is limited
The design possibilities are limited at the moment
I don’t have to pay for it at the moment, but there may be costs in the future
If it isn’t used enough or profitable in money or marketing for the big companies it will disappear.
Use it or not is a choice with a risk, but worth it if I am handy with it and can live with the limited possibilities. The possibilities are even less than in WordPress. Be aware before starting because it’s free.
Another solution the IT world or marketing world came up with is that there are domain names with other extensions than the common ones (.com, .nl, etc.). It is like they came up with new surnames for the web. An example is Realitykeeper.app.
