I'm Imteaz (Galib) Chowdhury, and I show the math behind every domain.

Who I am

I'm a domain investor, naming strategist and brand builder. Domain Decoded is where I list the premium .COM domains I hold, explain why each one made the cut, and help founders and investors buy, name and broker domains with the evidence in front of them.

My rule is simple: comparable sales first, pricing second. If a name can't pass a trademark screening, a history check and a price check against real sales, it doesn't get listed, however good it sounds. I'm based in Dhaka and work with founders and domain investors around the world.

How I decide: the DIOS process

Every name goes through DIOS, the Domain Investing Operating System, my five-stage due-diligence process:

1. Brainstorm & shortlist.I generate 15–20 candidate names around the niche, the category signal and the tone.
2. Trademark & USPTO clearance.Every candidate is checked for existing conflicts.
3. Wayback Machine history audit.I rule out spam history, adult content and brand damage left by a previous owner.
4. Comparable-sales valuation.I benchmark a fair price against real sales data from NameBio.
5. Radio test & final decision.I say the name aloud to test pronunciation, spelling and 24-hour memorability.

A name that fails any stage is dropped, no matter how good it sounds. See it in action in the Juronix.com case study, where more than 40 names were rejected before one was approved.

Not sure why this much checking matters? Read why the names you reject matter most.

Where I publish: CircleID and the APNIC Blog

Domain prices and naming choices sit on top of internet policy: new TLD rounds, script support, registry rules and how networks stay connected. I write about those topics for two internet-infrastructure audiences, and the same research feeds my domain advice.

CircleID

Bangla Is on ICANN's Script List. Where Are the Applicants?

Member profile · writing on domain names, ICANN and new TLDs · Oct 30, 2026

ICANN's 2026 new gTLD round drew no Bangla-script applications, even though ICANN supports 27 scripts. The application data shows limited South Asian participation and a sharp fall in internationalized domain applications compared with 2012.

When international links fail, hidden dependencies can take local services with them. The post explains how network operators can design for local resilience.

LinkedIn ghostwriting, for people who would rather build than post

I also write LinkedIn posts for busy founders, brokers and domain investors. Posts are written in your voice, you approve every one before it goes live, and your first sample post is free. Because I work in domains every day, I already know the terms, the audience and what people in this space respond to.

Plans start at $199 a month.

How I can help you

• Founders and startups: find a name that is clear of trademark conflicts, pre-vetted and ready to register, or get a second opinion on the name you already use.
• Domain investors and brokers: get a second pair of eyes on a valuation, hire me to source a domain someone else owns, or let me write your LinkedIn posts so your presence stays active.
• Anyone not sure where to start: message me with your goal, category and budget. A short discovery conversation is always the first step, and it costs nothing.

Why you can trust this site

• Open pricing. Prices are published on the services page. They are open to discussion, with limited room because the rates are already set at a reasonable level.
• Evidence behind every listing. Each domain has a case study showing the trademark, history and comparable-sales checks it passed.
• No guarantees I can't keep. I don't promise followers, leads, sales or resale value. The disclaimer explains exactly what my checks do and don't cover.
• Your information stays yours. I don't sell it, share it or use it for any other purpose. Read the privacy policy.
• A real person. You can reach me directly by email, WhatsApp or LinkedIn, and I reply myself.
